Doin' Work GM-A-Team Trades

[Karmaloop]

Utah and LA Lakers have agreed a trade.

Utah Trades

Al Jefferson - $14,000,000
Devin Harris - $9,319,000
2012 GSW 1st

Total outgoing = $23,319,000

LA Lakers Trade

Andrew Bynum - $14,900,000
Steve Blake - $4,000,000

Total = $18,900,000 (x 1.25 + $100k = $23,725,000 - deal works)

Why for Utah? We need an elite defensive Center, and feel Bynum is top 5 in the league. We also save some cash. Bynum/Favors creates a monstrous defensive front court built for the long-run.

Trade approved. Please update your rosters.

The Pistons and Bucks agree to a deal.

Pistons outgoing:
Ben Gordon (11,600,000)
Pistons 2nd (33rd pick)
Total: 11,600,000

Pistons incoming:
John Salmons (8,500,000)
Kenyon Dooling (2,246,400)
Jon Brockman (1,000,000)
Bucks 1st (10th pick)
Total: 11,746,4000

Bucks outgoing:
John Salmons (8,500,000)
Kenyon Dooling (2,246,400)
Jon Brockman (1,000,000)
Bucks 1st (10th pick)
Total: 11,746,4000

Bucks incoming:
Ben Gordon (11,600,000)
Pistons 2nd (33rd pick)
Total: 11,600,000

Pistons accept. This deal because we get a nice asset in a top 10 pick, we get two expiring contracts to help out financially AND we get a guy in Salmons who is very solid--we feel his numbers last year were just an allusion and that he has a lot of good game left in the tank.

Trade approved. Please update your rosters.

SAC and CHI have a trade to announce.

SAC outgoing:
Chris Paul $16,359,805
2014 1st

CHI outgoing:
Derrick Rose $6,993,708
Ronnie Brewer $4,710,000
C.J. Watson $3,400,000
Total: $15,103,708

We trade for the 22 year old MVP. Rose has great size, put up 25/8/4 on good defense and carried his team to the playoffs. Ronnie Brewer is a nice defensive SG, and Watson is good depth as well. Good dealing CHI.

Trade approved. Please update your rosters.

Boston and OKC have a blockbuster to announce:

Boston outgoing: #2, #25, rights to Ricky Rubio, Wes Johnson (4,006,080) + Jermaine O'neal (6,226,200) = 10,232,280

OKC outgoing: James Harden (4,604,760) + Russell Westbrook (5,082,416) = 9,687,176

Boston accepts, while we give up an awful lot of young talent we get back a very solid player in Westbrook and a developing player in Harden.

Trade approved. Please update your rosters.

[Karmaloop]

Dallas and Boston have a huge block buster to announce:
Boston outgoing: Kevin Garnett (21,247,044) + Paul Pierce (15,333,334) + Ray Allen (10,000,000) + Lac 2012 1st + Boston 2011 2nd rounder = 46,580,378

Dallas outgoing: Dirk Nowitzki ( 19,092,873) + Brendan Haywood (7,624,500) + Luol Deng (12,325,000) + Leandro Barbosa (7,600,000) = 46,642,373

Boston accepts, we wanted to mix up the team when we started and this would definitely count as that. Losing the "big 3" hurt, but this is a move that we feel we just have to do.

Trade approved. Please update your rosters.

New Jersey and Indiana have a trade to announce.

NJ trades:

Brook Lopez $3,076,983
Antawn Jamison $15,076,715

=$18,153,698

Ind trades:

Danny Granger $12,015,904

= $12,015,904

Deal works because Indiana has a ton of capspace.

NJ accepts, because we get a 2nd star next to Williams that has a very good contract, which allows us to add quality in FA. Losing Lopez hurts a lot, because he is a really nice C, but we save $6,137,794 with this deal to go after FA's and we prefer a defensive C + rebounder.

Trade approved. Please update your rosters.

[Karmaloop]

New Jersey and Philadelphia have a trade to announce:

NJ trades:

Anthony Morrow $4,000,000


Phi trades:

TE Williams ($5,000,000)
OKC 2nd 2011
PHI 2nd 2013
PHI 2nd 2014


Why for NJ? New Jersey does this deal to have a crap ton of cap space to go after the big names in FA + we add picks for other deals.

we both posted the deal, here is how it is exactly, the Lou Williams TPE is smaller then this, but still works because you can add 100k to a tpe for salary match. Nice easy dealing NJ!

Philly sends
pick #54, PHIL 2013 2nd, PHIL 2014 2nd
TPE (from L.Williams trade $3,939,280)
$3,939,280 + 100,000 = $4,039,280 > $4,000,000

NJ sends
A.Morrow $4,000,000

Philly accepts, we really hate losing picks of any sort, but Morrow is a guy we can build with. A deadly shooter that fits well in our plans

Trade approved. Misread Larry Coon's FAQ. This deal is passed. Please update your rosters.

SAC outgoing:
Andre Iguodala $13,531,750
Evans $4,151,640
Toney Douglas $1,145,640
Total: aprox. $18 million

MIA outgoing:
Wade, Dwayne: $15,691,000


We add a top 5 player in Wade and welcome a new big 3 to Sacramento.

We add a top 5 player in Wade and welcome a new big 3 to Sacramento.

The Heat accept.

It's tough parting ways with Dwayne Wade, who brought the Heat a championship, but we needed new blood in here. I'm a big fan of Tyreke Evans and think he's about to blowup into a superstar. Andre Iguodala continues to help out our defense and between him and LeBron James, we've got a couple of really good defenders. I like Toney Douglass as well. Good, solid role player.

[Karmaloop]

Golden State and Dallas have a trade:

Golden state trades: Charlie Bell($4,099,920) + 2011 2nd, 2012 2nd

Dallas trades: $4,300,000 TPE created in Matt Carroll trade

Dallas accepts, get a couple small assets, and Bell is at least an expiring.

Trade approved. Please update your rosters.

Utah and Houston have agreed a trade.

Utah Trades

Paul Millsap - $8,103,435
Jannero Pargo - $1,265,976
2011 #12
2013 2nd

Total Outgoing = $9,369,411 (*1.25+$100k = 11,811,763.75)

Houston Trades

Kevin Martin - $11,519,840
2012 NYK 1st

Why for Utah? We need a 20+ ppg wing scorer, and Kevin Martin is our man. I love what Millsap brings, but I'm giving the PF position to Favors in the long run.

Trade approved. Please update your rosters.

I'm confused. Was my trade with Sacramento approved or not? I need to know so I can update my rosters and other stuff.

Los Angeles accepts this deal. We feel that with the stock of the players we are interested in rising by the day, that this was a necessary move in which we needed to make to insure we are in position to obtain one of these players.

Memphis and Chicago have a trade.

Chicago in / Memphis out:
Greivis Vasquez - $1,113,600
Alonzo Gee - $884,293 (non-guaranteed)
2011 Cleveland 2nd (#32)
Total salaries - $1,997,893

Memphis in / Chicago out:
Omer Asik - $1,857,200


Memphis accepts. The lack of a solid backup center hurt the Grizzlies this year, and we love Asik's defense in that role.

[Warriorfan]

Chicago Accepts

With the additions of Jevale MgGee and Melmut Okur Asik while a valueable contributor to the team was pushed down to 4th in the depth chart.

Chi with its recent series of trades had a lack of wing players so win win for both teams.
Chi intends to find a hidden gem in the 2nd round just like Asik.

Nice doing business with you Memphis.

PF Samardo Samuels ($788,872)

Cleveland Cavaliers receive:
SF Marvin Williams ($8,050,000)
2011 1st RND (#17)

New York Knicks receive:
SF Andres Nocioni ($6,650,000)
PF Samardo Samuels ($788,872)

Total: 7,438,872 * 1.25 = 9,298,509

Cleveland Cavaliers receive:
SF Marvin Williams ($8,050,000)
2011 1st RND (#17)


Cleveland accepts this deal.

Cleveland likes this deal because we gain a young talent on the wing and another young player at the #17 pick.

Deal works

NYK accepts. We get an expiring for Marvin, and Samuels for the #17. Samuels was 8/4 this year, and I believe he could be the next Al Jefferson, but more athletic, and we feel he's better at anything that's at #17.

The Cleveland Cavaliers and Los Angeles Clippers announce a major Sign & Trade:

Los Angeles Clippers receive:
F/C Anderson Varejao ($7,950,000)
C Jason Thompson ($3,001,284)
2011 1st RND (#27)
2012 1st RND (Cavaliers) (unprotected)
2013 1st RND (Kings) (unprotected)

Cleveland Cavaliers receive:
C DeAndre Jordan ($10,000,000) (signs 5 year/$50 million contract)
2011 2nd (#47)

Cleveland accepts this deal. Even with BYC, this deal works because Clippers are under the cap.

We gave up alot of assets in two unprotected future 1sts, late 1st this year, and Anderson Varejao. But we feel it is time to accelerate the "New Look Cavs" with Kyrie Irving, JJ Hickson and DeAndre Jordan as a foundation.
