Asking for 2 swaps makes you sound as awful as the guy asking for #3 for Vuc. Don't do that.
I was just trying to counter with over the top value
Probably a good reminder to everyone that it never hurts to take a minute and familiarizing yourself with the board rules.
Here is the relevant part:
General Behavior Guidelines:
1) Why you don't like a deal is far more valuable than that you don't like a deal
Don't just post gifs or pictures this does not meet the minimum posting standard on this board, don't just post LOL terrible, don't respond with an unreasonable counter offer to 'show' how bad the deal is. Instead explain where the valuation and/or fit falls short, Explain why the player is more valuable/better/important/beloved by management and when possible give a reasonable idea of what your team might be looking to do instead or a reasonable modification to the original proposal.
I did more than once. Everyone of the below quotes is from me in this single thread.
I am not joking. Green is being paid almost 2 million dollars a point. OKC can keep him and play win now with that all by themselves.
About the same at 2 million a point. But Dedmon is the 2nd center for the Hawks now. With the Hawks he averaged about 1.5 million a point.
You obviously love Green as your back up shooting guard and think he has some value. You should keep him at 14.6 million and the Hawks should keep their backup center at 13.3 million.
The above is like a money ball perspective.
They want good value across the board this free agency. I don't see the Hawks giving up any value for Green if they want him at all. Below is a quote on their free agency plans.
“We’re not just going to pay a guy so we can look good on paper,” the source said.

Green is one of those players in my opinion that makes the Hawks look good on paper. He is a well known and respected name. Value wise he is way off the mark.
This is pretty much it. All the vets like Crabbe and Turner became disgruntled because they could not get playing time. This is the same thing that would happen with Green as well in my opinion. Just like those two he will be playing for his next contract so its best he goes to a team that values him more than their young players.
The Hawks don't favor Green when they have Reddish and Huerter.
The original proposed trade did not have a why for each team. I think I provided more than enough why nots for the Hawks. I apologize if my one bad post offended and was out of line.
