Question about dynasty mode re-signing players

[Axel The Great]

I am doing dynasty mode with the rockets, and more than half of my players have one year left in their contract. I know during the off-season I can re-sign them, but do the players have to accept, or do you just choose who you want to re-sign? I don't want them to decline and have to start a whole new team because that would be disastrous.

The players have to accept the offer. If you lowball them or they don't like the terms of the deal, they may decline to re-sign.

Thanks, but when re-signing players, is it the same process as signing a free agent, where you choose 3 things to tell them about that might interest them, or is it that you offer them a higher salary?

[Andrew]

From memory, you don't have to go through the negotiation mini-game when "talking" to your own free agents; you just make them an offer.

i have a question: i'm the knicks and i have cleared a whole bunch of cap space, but my team automatically resigns them. that means that i don't have a lot to offer lebron and d-wade, which sucks any help to how i dont resign the players?

During the offseason, you need to bring up your roster (should be the Y button on Xbox 360, Triangle on Playstation 3) and manually release anyone with zero years left on their contract before you get to the Re-Sign Players phase on the calendar. That way, they won't be re-signed automatically.
