Some GMs don't like to put in the work. I probably spent 30 minutes to an hour on the simple Harris/Brook trade. Moving Mikal was 3 or so hours of work between two teams that wanted him; and over 4 hours trying to move Keegan between two teams that wanted him.

None of them were resolved in just one day.


Trust me I know.

• mpharris and I were in trade talks for months

• DePalma and I put together two separate multi-team deals that at the time we experienced so many highs and lows we didn’t know if the deals would even get done

• Soul and I had some tough negotiations we had to push through to find a happy medium

Yeah man, this stuff is work but you gotta keep chopping at the tree until it falls

For me it's the fact that I see trades as the game within the game. Finding that happy medium is all the fun in a trade involving players each team wants.

Hell of a game BR! 15 lead changes and we were tied 7 times. Jonas still gave me fits with 24 points and 13 boards. Just as important, he got Brook to foul out in only 12 minutes. I want to thank sim god for OO. He took up Brook's slack with 11 points, 9 boards, and 5 blocks.

Good game BR/Bucks

Side note and I hope I don't jinx him. Patrick Williams may be unleashed. He had 17 points, 5 boards, 2 assist, 2 steals, and a block. This is like the 3rd or 4th solid double digit scoring game since I traded for him.

I'd say good game, but when Noel is scoring 18 points that just ain't right.

this gives me hope, though. if i'm able to compete with one of the top east teams, the playoffs should be fun

i was only 1 game out of the 4th seed. so the bottom PO teams of the east should be entertaining

One more trade before the deadline?
I am looking for a good defensive player to help out my 2nd unit. I would prefer they are a SG or SF; but a PF is a possibility. Please check your players ratings before sending offers. Defense in paticular. Hunter is not going anywhere for peanuts. Depending on how much I like the player the following are available.

De'Andre Hunter- $94/4 years
Ousmane Dieng- $23/3(4) years
Taurean Prince- $10/4 years
Ricky Rubio- $6/1 year
Wenyen Gabriel- $1/3 years
DeAndre Jordan- $1/1 year

Due to Stepien I cannot trade any 1st round picks until the season is over. I can trade the below 2nd round picks.

2024 2nd- From Milwaukee- (via Miami- via Phoenix)
2024 2nd- From Oklahoma City- (via Orlando- via New York- via Denver- via Minnesota- via Golden State)
