The cap space is definitely not giving up "nothing" and the draft capital is definitely not nothing, but I think it was a heck of a deal for Brooklyn and I think Context did well in recouping the space and adding more draft capital to get ready to fire again after his loaded young talent matures another year.

It was just one of those situations where any team that had the cap space had no use for butler...This put Brooklyn in a position of
leverage...So unless some other potential contender was willing to give draft capital to memphis or washington to clear up space; which would put them in a position to aquire "butler" and give me "a better offer than "brooklyn" ---it made brooklyn the best option for me...

This allowed brooklyn to be in a position where they didnt have to make a choice on giving up "talent". And this is what "hoffa" doesnt understand. Or maybe he does but he was trolling...

Timing was in brooklyn's favor here and thats how it works in business sometimes in the real world-- as well as in fantasy BAF land

Something that NO OTHER team was willing to give up or could give up. And bamba was taken because that was the only way the deal would work. IF the deal could have been done without him he would have gladly kept him... So no- he didnt get Butler for NOTHING.

I mean... It was nothing lol. The cap space is what he gave up and that's saying a lot. Jimmy is a great player but is on one of the worst deals in BaF. Half your cap on one player is impossible without someone like Luka.

It's a hefty salary but he's got bargain deals with Sabonis, Grant, and Brunson. Kuzma is also very reasonable so he could afford the splurge. With the numbers his guys are putting up IRL, I think next year he's got a starting 5 of two 4.5 star players and three 3.5 star players. He's going to be a problem!

The cap space is definitely not giving up "nothing" and the draft capital is definitely not nothing, but I think it was a heck of a deal for Brooklyn and I think Context did well in recouping the space and adding more draft capital to get ready to fire again after his loaded young talent matures another year.

Yeah I like the move for them both. I think Rich might have the best team int he East this time next year with Brunson and Sabonis getting major bumps and IQ getting a smaller but significant bump.

Context has a great young squad. I thought this was the year he'd trade them all to compete but it seems he's being more cautious than that. Honestly he can just hold for 2-3 years and probably will have a squad like the one that got Melo a chip.

I remember during his IRL draft when I was telling you Giddey was the truth and you was skeptical of his PG position effectiveness, saying he remind you more of Kyle like a forward who can facilitate. You came around now!

Yea I’m eating crow. His vision crazy and now he made a leap as a scorer. He looking big time now

The SIM got him listed as a SF smh but his passing rating is a 70 so I’m bout to see if I can unlock him at point

Point is his best position but he's a terrible player for the sim right now. His efficiency needs to rise a lot but he's still young and on a great contract.

Ima unlock him 8-)
