Put in contract clauses.

Tooltips on contract clauses with an explaination of what each one is

Incorporate team logos in team tables and results

A different colour for players in the last year of their contracts. Or perhaps a team choice for all expiring contracts?

A tool tip for team names, where it tells you name of coach, GM and current position? (not sure if we are doing this)

Assigning each trade a number that you can see your trade again.


If the result means that a team has over 15 players, bring back the team table so you can choose which player(s) to waive.

What do you think of the checker itself?

^ so I think 1 feedback is the acceptance/rejection page has got to be tight. People have got to be able to cut and paste their trades to forums with ease. Also, each accepted trade should have a transaction # that can be recalled.

What we're going to do is create a cut-and-paste option, where it takes you to a greatly simplified page, kinda like a printer-friendly page.

There will be a transaction Number feature, where you can recall trades.

Is everyone happy with the graph? It's actually already been updated, but not online yet. Now it will show 0 if the players you put in are within 25%.

Bear in mind that the tradechecker takes into account the NBA salary cap and teams salary figures. The graph, however does not. Its simply a tool to see if the players are within 125%.

for me, the graph is OK but I would like to see better use of the space. When proposing a trade that involves more than 2 teams, I have to scoll the page up and down to remember who is involved, what team is getting what player and how much money is going and coming. Those stats are more useful than just 1 image reresentation.
