I literally have no idea where Chris Paul is. I've already got my return for him though

lol trading a player back and forth multiple times is insane.

Spoiler:

This is what happens when NewEra and I get together.

I mean, I figured you would.

All I know is I got Cole Anthony in a 4 team deal and the team he was originally on wasn't in the deal

If you just need to cancel all my trades and start over, just let me know. Guys will be disappointed but I hate causing this many issues. Extremely sorry.

Idk maybe sending final rosters will also help Bish when trading multiple guys.

[mpharris36]

I do like the idea especially during the start of the offseason when the new league rolls out and then the 1/15 deadline where FA are removed and at that point a lot of "verbal agreements" are made as well.

Just sending 1 PM per team of a simple "in/out"

basically what players and picks you are getting with a total and what players/picks you are trading and the total salary

you do run the risk of one team miscalculating there cap or what they can or can't trade and that can nuke everything but thats a risk you run anyway with trading guys multiple times before the original deal gets announced.

I feel like that would certainly make Bish life a lot easier.

He doesn't care how the player bounced to 4 teams...he cares about his ending location and if the trade is legal.

Sheesh.

[HerSports85]

A lot of big names being moved. the league will look completely different next season.

I understand pooch decision. Keeping Luka on that contract will be hard plus he tried making that team work, it just didn’t pan out. It looks like rosters need to some filling out before moves can be judged.

yeah Luka on a 1 year deal is tricky especially if you already have other higher paid pieces. DET probably one of the few teams that can take the gamble because he has so little committed salary (just can't use up a lot of that cap space on long term deals) so he can go big $$$ next year to retain with bird rights. But he got the 1A player in this trade and you figure that out later.

Houston giving up the rebuild to compete in the tough west. There are pieces there to be quality but the west is tough.

Pooch hoping the SIM doesn't treat the health of his players like real life...ball brothers, KP, Zion, Isaac...that is a lot of guys that get banged up.

And yes with all these big pieces moving I feel like teams will have to balance out there rosters.

[El Poochio]

Can never celebrate losing Luka but excited to pair Green and Melo with Zion

Melo
Green
Herb
Zion
KP

Dont sleep on this squad, gonna bring out a Lavar Ball gif whenever I win a game this season
