BAT 8.0 TRADE DISCUSSION (DRAFT IN OTHER THREAD) PART II

[br7knicks]

boozer is available

sent you an email to see if we can do this

Great Vucevic pick. Had great numbers in limited minutes and has a lot of offensive skill.

Thank you. I honestly view both of them in terms of value pretty similar. Mirotic may have more upside, but i might not be able to see that upside for another 2 years. But Nikola is available to me now, and has at least 3 years to learn under Tim Duncan.

BTW...Pachulia is on the trade block for those interested. Doesnt mean im going to just give him away though.

Nikola Mirotic and Mehmet Okur are not eligible since they have singed overseas.

Okur will likely retire from NBA at the age of 33 and reportedly sign with a team in his native Turkey.

Comprehension is critical so be completely sure about things before jumping the gun so perhaps you only read the headline but didn't read the article because "officially signs" and "may sign" are 2 different things.

Edit: Nevermind not worth the argument/ debate I'll repick.

[br7knicks]

actually, i have 2 guys that would work very well for my team with my next pick. one is older and has more experience; the other, this past season, showed signs he can do very well in the NBA, but is younger.

He "may" be using this as leverage since he is unsigned, he "may" actually sign in Turkey and unlike the guy who played for the Blazers then Nuggets who has actually signed in Real Madrid for 3 years, Mehmet would be eligible.

If he signs that's the GM of the Nuggets gamble then fault, until then he is not signed.

I did my homework and that article is a tweet from June 14, 2012, there has been no new news on Okur's status.

I guess I just like being realistic since Okur has been offered minimum before and has not accepted it. He will probably go overseas. I mean how do you judge what salary he should get. Obviously not minimum since he hasn't accepted that.

But I guess he can be eligible. No big loss either way.

WHY WOULD I TRADE BLAKE FOR IBAKA WHY WHY WHY. If you send me a garbage proposal you will get called out.

^ Not that deep bro, I edited my message and repicked.

It's all good man!

[br7knicks]

Yup. And honestly I feel Lavoy Allen is a better pick. He can play a full season and the minutes necessary.

Why would accept your original garbage proposal of Batum+Mayo for Melo

You mad cause I'm bout to block you like Mutombo

"So how you gonna call me out when ya phone is disconnected?"

At least your franchise will be making money "hand over fist" marketing Jeremy Lin and that guy who jumped over the hood of a Kia.

I got some horrible offers also. One proposal had me giving Anthony Davis, Damian Lillard and another one of my earlier picks (i forget which) for some scrubs.

Just say no and move on.

Calm down little man, pretty sure I was the one who blocked you. I asked how old you were because you kept sending me annoying and immature emails. Have fun winning with 2 of the biggest ball hogs in the NBA. Real nice ball distribution, and a really healthy Center position as well. JR Melo and Westbrook on the same damn team.

You know life's bad when (I'm assuming) an adult has to lie about receiving emails (that weren't sent) in a BaT to make him seem legit

And lol, you gotta a guy in Noah (who I like) who was realistically getting benched at the end of games in favor of Asik so that should tell you something

You still having a mental breakdown cause you wanted Melo and I declined.

Batum+Mayo for Melo

"Lob City" my ass, Blake is gonna be in for a rude awakening when Lin dribbles the ball (to his right side only) around court for 21secs before deciding on what he gonna do w/ the rock (which usually ends w/ him shooting).

Now stop complaining and go to Church, you need Jesus.

[Mecca]

I'm guessing you didn't know that Noah was inured last season, and still played 32 MPG, and you're not a Knicks fan, because he didn't do that at all lol. Lin to Blake Lob City will be a treat to watch. Lin excellent at PnR and alleys, Blake is arguably the best finisher in the NBA. I didn't even want one of your ball hogging ass players anywy.
Your squad reminds me of a supped up version of the 07 Knicks.

Nice trade br7.

In the midst of the chaos it's good to see actual moves being made.

They do have cable and LeaguePass in FL, too ya know so yeah, who hasn't seen Lin?

I seen him shut it down at the end of the season so he could get a huge payday which was smart on his part.

Anyway at the end of the day, obviously we ain't block each other cause we can still read each others posts I hated your offer, you hated my smart "a" counter so let's leave it at that and sit down and have a brew together

Edit: But "lettuce" be honest, Serge is closer to Blake than Batum and Mayo to Melo.
