Vote: Asik
Useless player locked up for several years. At least other guys on the list have some useful skills, there are very few teams where Asik would see playing time.

Meyers Leonard. It's close with Hill, but bigs are harder to move than wings.

VOTE: Biyombo worries me most

I think there is some truth to this, because max deals and rookie scale are artificially constrained. However, the focus of the Trade Board isn't front office negotiators, but players and their contracts. Max deal and rookie scale players exist in our player pool, and their availability affects the relative value of all the other players. And we will certainly continue to make trades here that involve these types of players, so we need to know how the value of the contract compares.

Nominees: Westbrook, Anthony Davis, Curry, LeBron, Kawhi, Durant, Harden, Towns, Giannis,

why? rookie contracts can be traded, therefore they have positive or negative value associated with them. ranking trade value is the whole point. if you ignore salary, years left on the contract, etc., it's just a best player ranking, which belongs on the player comparison board.

Vote: Miles Plumlee

I don't think enough of y'all realize how bad he is and what his contract looks like. Solomon Hill's contract looks like a steal when compared to Plumlee's.
