Tier 1, only the players rated 64 and above. This was the shitty class so theres not that many

[Gregg Popovich]

Last year we didn't have tiers for RFAs. They all were decided before UFAs.

Reminder:

Process:

1. Send in your "Pitch" for a RFA to that player's agent.

The Player Agent will let you know that they've received your offer, and they will take into account all of the offers received for the player and narrow it down to 3 offers, one of which will be the resigning teams offer unless there are 3 vastly better offers. This part will last 3 days.

The PA committee will then vote on which of the three offers is the "best" considering all factors, and the winning bid will be the offer that the player will choose.

Unlike UFA, there is no follow up in RFA, once you send in your initial bid, you cannot change it or the pitch.

Make sure to include all relevent factors that the player will want to consider in joining your team, including the contract itself and the No Trade Clause if applicable.

2. The owner of that player has the option of either:

A. Offer a contract-extension just like any other team but risk signing him to a contract higher than the highest contract offer from another team. In case the player will not re-sign with him, he can still match the offer which that player signed.

B. Wait for him to sign an offer sheet and decide if he will match it or not.

A GM will get the right of first refusal even if they do not offer a contract to the RFA.

This part will last 2 days.

3.The Restricted FA, through his PA now has three options.

A. Accept the contract-extension of his team.

B. Sign an offer sheet from another team.

C. Accept the Qualifying Offer and be an Unrestricted Free Agent in next years offseason.

Also, this is the first year with Bird Rights. If you don't have Bird Rights, then you can only offer up to 4 years. If you do, i.e. all incumbent teams for RFAs, you can offer up to 5 years.

Reminder: offers for Tier 1 RFAs due by 5 pm EST today

Good Luck everyone, wishing teams get the player they want, if not my players are available.
