GM a Team 2019-2020: Discussion & Rules

[Blazer50]

any deals to be done? Scott.ins@aol.com

LAC - Dallas - Boston & Brooklyn still in play.

[MadNESS]

Last call for alcohol- Lakers, Magic and especially the Nuggets wouldn’t mind some deadline deals!!!

[DerrickNoah]

Suns are looking to move Willie Cauley-Stein Stein. Thad Young, Ish Smith, Andre Roberson, & Lou Will are also available to upgrade at the center position. The Suns are a contending team that want to repeat as champions.

Sixers are looking to move Terrence Ross(15 ppg; 3pt@38%), thou he is now entering his prime at 28y/o, the sixers are still looking to win a few years down the road. Other could be available for younger players.

OKC is looking to deal LeBron James. We have a specific target in mind but striking a deal seems hard. If someone else is interested in the King, I'm listening.

You can send recommendations but I will be posting “nominations” similar to an award show. Then I am gonna let the entire T&T board vote for 1st & 2nd place.

Reviewing my own season. I've done 17 trades, trying to make moves that made sense one at a time - not necessarely trying to rebuild. I ended up with an opportunity to clear a bunch of future salary for expirings with Memphis and took it hoping I could snag some top RFA's by overpaying. I struggled making trades after that because I was prepared for FA and had no more appealing players on my roster. If I had the chance to go back, I would definately try to maintain more desiring pieces to trade instead of cashing in on everyone on my roster. That said, I was able to nab at least two decent RFAs and was able to flip them plus picks for Simmons. From there on I was back in the trade buisness.
Ultimately I'm happy with my rebuild. I've ended up gaining a net of 6 FRPs, a bunch of young talent (though I also lost SGA to be fair) and acquired a potential all-star in Gordon. I didn't manage to get true star talent (I was trying really hard to get Mitchell) so that was a bit of a disapointment but OKC is financially stable and has a war chest like no other.

Here's a total list of what I've 'accomplished':

The game was a lot of fun. I wish we didn't have as many GMs abandoning their teams in need but a big thank you to those GMs willing to take over. And an even bigger thank you is due to Carl, without whom this game wouldn't have been possible. I had a lot of fun and am looking forward to the next game (whenever that happens).
