The buyer who snapped Philip Collins has a stunning payroll. Let's see how deep pocket he has or how soon he will end up with bankrupted.

4.4m salary and counting.

He's bought Ko Shi Shuai (Green Machine), Philip Collin (Green Machine), Themis Poulikakos (Green Machine), Gioele Peretti (Quebec Pugs) within the past few days and also owns former Naismith player Slaven Bacanović (Harlem Strikers) along with dozens more assorted 200k players.

I almost get the impression he's on some misguided attempt to take advantage of Utopia league and it's going to blow up in his face 1000x over. Or, he's just trying to go bankrupt. Or screw a bunch of NT teams.

EDIT: he sold 8 players since I posted. 4.2m salary now. Remove his lowest 4 salary guys and he has a 19-man, 4.17m+ roster (220k/player).

It seems like he's trying to screw over NT teams, but I can't understand why he wouldn't just fire the 200K players that aren't currently on NTs? And if he's trying to go bankrupt, why sell players?
That said, I'm still thinking he'd like to go bankrupt, have those players get on the market for $1mil, and be lost to their NT teams when nobody bids on them. I hope the BBs would be willing to step in and put them on the market for $1000.

Ya, we don't want to lose Philip Collin for the NT. Whomever is the next NT manager has got try to keep Collins on the NT just so he is not able to be fired. Of course if the team goes bankrupt, Collins might be screwed.

Unless Jutras is aging really well, that could mean losing 2 monster bigs for next season. Even if he's kept on the NT (and the team doesn't go bankrupt and is forced to keep him), you have to assume he'll probably have bad GS.

I honestly don't think losing Collin is a very big a deal because he's so mono-skilled. I didn't think he should have been on the team the past couple of years as it was. We've got several far more well-rounded bigs who I would take ahead of him.

Finding another extremely dedicated team to take on his salary will be impossible. He's a goner.

I still liked him as our back-up C (or starting C with Laurent at PF).

Sammons is also ready for the NT now, and by next season, will be able to re-create the monster front court with Laurent. Hopefully, we'll be in the Worlds then.
Btw, someone needs to keep Laurent in Canada!

What do Sammons skills look like right now?
