Poll - Should you be allowef to up your own bid in FA?

After a quick review of the past 2 seasons, I have found out that this Harden situation & DGT strategy is the first incident of this nature. While there are atleast 2 bids that were outbidded by the same owner, these bids were eventually outbidded by another making the bidding against oneself irrelevant at that point.

What is unique in this Harden situation is that DGT, outbid himself to prolong the free agency of Harden because he couldnt clear cap space before the allowed 24hrs. In my opinion, the 142M & 175M should no longer be valid because DGT has already the highest bid at that point. In fact, what DGT did should have been a violation since he was not able to clear cap space to succesfully offer the 141M contract within 24hrs.

The rule says that the team with the highest bid is the winner, DGT already won the bidding part because his original bid was not outbidded by another. Then the next part of the rule on RFA should have taken place, which was for the previous owner to decide whether he will match the winning offer.

I hope the context of bidding against oneself or outbidding yourself is placed in the right context.
