But here are my suggestions: A team that has no intentions of keeping an acquired player and plans on buying out his contract that the team must wait 30 days to buy out his contract then the player must wait another 30 days before he signs with his previous team. Plus, the team will also have to double the price of buying out the remainder of the player's contract. Or The traded and bought out player cannot sign with his previous team until the immediate off-season but is allowed to sign with any team looking to add a player in their roster for only the remainder of the season, including playoffs. Or Any traded player that's been bought out will not be eligible for playoff participation if he signs with his previous team in the same season. Or Any player that's been bought out after a trade then signs with his previous team can only be signed for a maximum of three 10-day contracts. After that, the player is no longer eligible to play for his previous team but must wait until the immediate off-season to sign a one-year contract at the salary that is on his original contract for the following season or for the current season if the player had an expiring contract plus 15% of the final year of the player's original contract. Or The traded and bought out player must wait a full 60 days before re-signing with his previous team. His previous team must re-sign him for the full season's salary of that same year he was traded and bought out plus only a one-year extension as the team's option. But the team must give the player the same salary owed to him the following year of his original contract or the same salary as the final year of his expiring contract PLUS 15% of the final year of his original contract.
