GM a Team: Twenty Twelve Edition - Trades

[Blazer50]

#124 Houston and NJN have a trade:

Houston sends: Nick Young($3,695,857) + Patrick Patterson($1,959,960) + 2012 Philly 1st round pick = $5,655,817

New Jersey sends: Tyrus Thomas($7,305,785) + Chris Singleton($1,485,000) = $8,790,785

Houston has about $12m in capspace currently to absorb the difference.

We accept. Ty Thomas will be a nice fit alongside Cousins, and we like the potential of Singleton to be a shutdown defender in the NBA.

New Jersey accepts this deal. We hate to lose the potential that Chris Singleton bring, but wish Houston luck with the Cousins/Tyrus Thomas Experience (Billion dollar talents with single digit BBIQ's) Nick Young will provide outstanding scoring - either in a starting role or as a 6th man (expiring audition) and Patrick Patterson is a promising young big man who had a 19+PER with the Rockets. The Philly's pick should help bring a contributing asset in this years draft. Great Dealing Houston!

[Heats_Finest]

Hey don't say my pick should be a decent pick!

#125 Houston and Cleveland have a trade:

Houston sends: Tyrus Thomas($7,305,785) +Tony Battie($854,389) +Hassan Whiteside($788,872) = $8,949,046

Cleveland sends:Trevor Ariza($6,790,640) +Christian Eyenga($1,097,520) +Jodie Meeks($884,293) + 2012 Cle 2nd = $8,772,453

Houston also receives $3m in cash considerations from Cleveland.

Houston accepts. Tyrus is a solid PF, Ariza is a solid SF so we even out our roster a bit by dumping bigs for wings. We can now slide Cousins over to the 4 again and have him play alongside Dally.

[TMACFORMVP]

Cavs accept, we think Battie has the potential to become the next Battier if he adds an "r" to the end of his name.

[Devilanche]

Bynum is having a breakout season. 23/17 and 2 blocks so far, and while this will probably drop to 22/11 on great defense we think that Bynum is now comfortably the 2nd best C in the league (and I love Bogut).

Bogut heard the news and laughed uncontrollably in the dressing room before knocking his head against the wall and out injured yet again.

Whoever's healthier will be the 2nd center. No offence but that Bynum will probably be unable to sustain that level of production. With centers the way it is now, they're probably better off proving they're healthy for a full season rather than having breath-taking numbers.

#125: Chicago and Minnesota

Chicago Sends
Rip Hamilton $5m

Minnesota Sends
Randy Foye (EXP) $4.25m * 1.25 = 5.3m
2013 MIA 2nd

Rip is on a decent contract. 5m/yr for 3 years(Final year only 1m guaranteed). We rather take a chance on a short term contract at the cost of a 2nd rounder than overpay a free agent.

NOH and WAS have a trade to announce.

NOH outgoing:
Deron Williams $16,359,805

WAS outgoing:
Kyrie Irving $5,144,280
Hasheem Thabeet $5,127,720
Tristan Thompson $3,726,600
2012 HOU 1st (lotto protected)
total: $13,998,600

Irving is averaging 14/4/5 and is 43% from 3. The 1st overall pick reminds us of a young...Deron Williams. He looks to pass first but has the ability to score when he needs to and can shoot. Thompson has looked good, the 4th overall pick shoots a high FG% and fits nicely beside Bynum. Gasol becomes expendable to a win now team. As much as we can expect for Deron, and we wish him the best in WAS.

Washington accepts. We hate giving up Thabeet, who is a 28 PER, 100 TS% beast, but couldn't pass up the opportunity to obtain D-Will.

Nice dealing.

Trade 121

BOBCATS AND NET ANNOUNCE DEAL

The Bobcats will send PG Jameer Nelson (7.8M), CHA's own 2013 2nd round pick + $1M cash to the New Jersey Nets for the expiring contracts of Sandiata Gaines ($884293), Shannon Brown ($3.5) and SF Mike Dunleavy Jr (2 years at $3.7M) and LAC's 2012 1st round pick. (8.084M).

The Nets feel Jameer brings the veteran skills to their backcourt and is a great locker room - glue guy. They will miss the defensive presence of Brown and leadership Dunleavy promised, but felt Jameer filled a greater need than player who would see limited minutes in the Nets planned rotation. Great Dealing with the Bobcats as always, knew what they wanted and made the effort to make it work.

LOL You mean Charlotte.

Anyways we accept.

POR sends:
Jason Thompson (3,001,000)
Joel Anthony (3,600,000)

Total: 6,600,000

1.5*6.6>7.5 and 6.6+5>7.5 so money works. i do this bc I like JT's potential and Joel's vet experience as a shot blocker.

Portland accepts.
A lateral move, but with:
- Thompson being a RFA (don't want to pay him for his limited minutes)
- Joel's pretty lengthy contract
- the acquisition of Emeka Okafor
- 17 players on my roster
- and sooooo many Center's

we'll (again) take that chance of him suiting up this season.

#128

The Cavs and Hornets have agreed upon a trade.

The Cavs send Joakim Noah ($12,000,000) and Ronnie Brewer ($4,710,000) for Pau Gasol ($18,714,150).

Cavs Outgoing/Hornets Incoming: $16,710,000
Hornets Outgoing/Cavs Incoming: $18,714,150

Deal Works.

Cavs accept. Why? Considering there's no second guy coming to me in this deal whom I can compare to an all time great, the real reason for doing this deal is that I'm bored.

Noah fits better with the age of our core.

total: $15,227,240

Ed Davis $2,063,040

Davis was very productive his rookie season and active on defense. We also open up a ton of caproom for this offseason.

We do this deal as we gain a homegrown talent who loves the city and has as much potential as davis. we also gain hopefully our 4th 1st in the 2012 draft

Utah and Detroit have a trade to announce


Marc Gasol 13 mil(?)
for
Enes Kantor 4.1 mil + MarShon Brooks 1.2 mil


Jazz have cap space to absorb the deal


Jazz do it because we get a proven elite player in Gasol

Utah and Detroit have a trade to announce (#130)


Marc Gasol 13 mil(?)
for
Enes Kantor 4.1 mil + MarShon Brooks 1.2 mil


Jazz have cap space to absorb the deal


Jazz do it because we get a proven elite player in Gasol

Detroit accepts this deal for three reasons:
1. Saves us a lot of money.
2. MarShon = ROY
3. Gasol didn't support our tanking efforts.

Note: Pistons waive Vernon Macklin prior to making the deal.

Trade#131: Washington Wizards and New Jersey Nets

Washington Wizards send:
Deron Williams

Total: $16,359,805

New Jersey Nets send:
Stephen Curry
Jan Vesely
Patrick Patterson
Alex Ajinca
2012 GSW 1st
2012 1st from SAC (worst)

Total: $13,142,120

I didn't wanna give up D-Will early, but we get a bonafide stud in Steph and good value overall. I really liked the idea of D-Will/Dwight, but it was too much of a risk for me.

New Jersey welcomes Deron back. He is the straw that stirs this team and we did not feel that moving Steph or the other promising rookies was too great a cost. Thanks for this deal - it was great win win - straight forward transaction. Alway a pleasure.
