The last couple of days or so was crazy….

GM Appreciation:

Shoutout to Wackbone Aka the money man

This was me pulling up to his inbox with 2nd round picks anytime I needed to move a cheap contract



Thank you to DePalma, HerSports, DaGawd, Hezi, KGF, and Fat for their cooperation in responding to PMs in a timely manner and making last minute adjustments as needed. It’s always great working with GMs who have great communication skills.

BaF Fam, I’ve had private discussions with many, if not all of you since the season began. We may not have come to an agreement, but if you got back to me on any inquiry that was made, thank you once again. I respect everyone’s time.

Last but not least, Bish you’re the man bro.

When are you gonna trade me Giannis

Listening to potential offers for Killian Hayes $10/1 - 2.5 star/3.0 star potential point guard.

Looking primarily for draft capital that helps me target the depth player I want.

Also, he is currently the replacement player for my exempt list overseas-stash Procida, so if I take a player back it has to be a $1 deal for $11 or less.

Also willing to package him with Procida (total $11 cap hit) if needed to take back a suitable player who has more than 1 year left on his deal, although I'd prefer to be able to hold onto Procida.

The Indiana Pacers have agreed to acquire Pascal Siakam from the Toronto Raptors for Bruce Brown Jr., Jordan Nwora and three first round picks. As part of the trade, the New Orleans Pelicans will send Kira Lewis to the Raptors and a second round pick to the Pacers in a luxury tax move.

The picks will be Indiana's own selection in 2024, along with the worst of the first round picks originating from either the Utah Jazz, Houston Rockets, Los Angeles Clippers or Oklahoma City Thunder. The third pick will be Indiana's own selection in 2026.

Siakam will be a free agent in 2024, but the Pacers appear to be trading for him with a realistic hope of re-signing him. Siakam can re-sign for up to $247 million over five years with the Pacers. Siakam is also eligible to sign a two-year, $81.5 million extension until June 30th.

“I’m excited that Pascal is getting a first class opportunity with the Pacers, being paired with Tyrese and Myles and being coached by a great coach in Rick Carlisle. His future their looks bright there,” Siakam’s agent Todd Ramasar told Andscape's Marc J. Spears.

We'll find out soon Mel

So for some reason a few of you still got that 1/15 high, so I might as well put it out there. I got no problem trading JJJ as long as it makes sense to me. I'm not interested in firsts, I'm interested in getting better today.

[SOUL]

Siakam value bout to go UP

[Capn'O]

So another GM asked me what I'm looking for today and I'm like



But then when specific deals come up I'm like



I apologize for this. I'll have it straightened soon.

Grimes/Pod package for an upgrade at SF is something I could be looking for.

I generally have this reaction, after getting kinda worked in my first couple trades (albeit, not completely ruining my team as I like my young guys I got and picks) now I've very hesitant to make moves, I also don't want to move my young pieces and thats who everyone seems interested in

If the cost was controllable contracts, then yes, it did.
