Trade Chatter

[Flaming Homer]

Keep it civil or we will delete your messages and suspend your account on a temporary or permanent basis depending on the infraction.

Civil means no personal attacks of any other individual. We all need to understand if a GM doesn't like our trade and says its bad that does not mean that is a personal attack. A personal attack includes name calling and making a comment about someone that has no tie to the trade being discussed.

I'm about to close the trade office if somebody doesn't post something juicy!

Just wait for it heheh

Yay first trade!

Crazy to see Porter get moved again. Wild to think I was debating on him, he isn’t bad; just doesn’t seem like he ever fit what plans teams who picked him up and. Hopefully he shows out for Detroit

Porter at half his price is a useful player. Porter at 12-13M is incredible bad value.

There's the first trade of the off-season

[hardenwithnod]

I think Porter would’ve been awesome in the old engine, with this new engine he kind of got needed but is still very solid as a 2 way slashing guard.

First trade! Yurtseven has that TO which makes it a bit better. He struggles with his efficiency but maybe he can be a 3 pt specialist big lol

I’ll have to take a closer look but I like the value for Detroit who are the only team that doesn’t have to worry about cap room. Smart play.

Atlanta should have squeezed Houston for more! Make him earn that trade flexibility!

[blackice]

Very interesting trade between SAC/DEN, Aaron Epps is supposed to be the most win now prospect in this draft and Denver is a win now team that should contend for a western conference playoff berth at least, with the potential for a finals run if everything clicks. BT is always dangerous to trade with and even in a semi rebuild they are a dangerous team with a wealth of assets. I like Portland a lot, and think they are underrated but for the sake of this deal I like it for both teams. Well done!

great move by Atlanta to sneak in to snag Reaves

[Marcos_Beck]

I wouldn’t have traded a unprotected first three years from now for a backup rookie

[blackice]

As someone who trades my future 1st”s when they are projected to be lotto, I like this deal for Atlanta, our mentor! He is betting on internal development to push his rebuild into a young contender, similar to us last season. I wouldn’t want to be in his division right now…

Not sure what to think of that Den-Sac trade. Epps taken at 19th could be a reach but the talent is there and only concern was his age. Letting go of a future unprotected 1st for an old rookie could be a risk but Denver with a returning Brett seems to be just fine moving forward.

Washington / Boston deal is illegal. Rookie salaries doesn’t count until after FA I think when they become trade restricted.

Dennis must be under the luxury tax to absorb the minimum salary which he’s not and looking at salaries probably won’t be

You can still use the 1.25 multiplier over the luxury tax per CBA. And I believe we can pick between using the salary or count it as $0/rookie rights during post draft rookie rights trading before a GM signs the deal, especially since 1st rookie selections are automatically signed to 2 years minimum already with 2 vesting options.
