I'm just saying, I think Mike can only control so much. What can be controlled, is controlled. What can't be controlled, you depend on the fellow owners in your league to "do the right thing" (see post about intentionally losing games further down the list for this hot debate). I think, generally, you've got owners who do the right thing with regards to trades in these situations.

I made a post-season trade with a team currently in a reallocation draft. But the trade was agreed to shortly after the trade deadline. Mike approved it based on what was known then. I think this is a valid concern, but I just don't think it would be prevalent in any league.
