New GM a Team Transactions Thread

philly needs to be getting the 1st rounders, not giving them up

[BlackIce]

skorff26 you sent me two suggestions to make it work. I did them. Its now up to you.

[MadNESS]

the picks are top 5 protected....

you guys are crazy....

your telling me that that starting 5 wouldnt be one of the best in the league?

what a joke...

plus the 2009 Sixers are in the playoffs so that could have been top 15 protected and Det still gets it

You take out the two unprotected 1sts and you might have a case. It's about value not whether or not a team comes out looking better. Regardless of what it does for Philly, Detroit gets far too many assets out of it.

And even with their contracts, both Dalembert and Evans have value in this game.

The guy spent 3 picks to give up Maxiell and Kwame Brown if you want to talk about Evans and Dally value in this game. That deal is way too good to Philly. With that team those picks will be ~#30. I would never consider that deal if i were Detroit manager. Good thing i am not i guess.

[vege]

Dude, this wasn't even close. It was hands down the worst trade I've seen, throughout all the games I've been apart of. Detroit just absolutely destroyed Philly in this deal, I can understand why you wish it wasn't vetoed as you raped the crap out of him in that trade. The fact is, Philly is better than the Pistons right now, he trades ALL of his young talent of a team whos a lot better, for a bunch of washed up guys, who might not even make the playoffs. Its "turrible" as Sir Charles would say.

This would be like me trading Durant and two 1sts for McGrady.

If you include the head coachs swap i agree with you. You are ignoring the fact that Detroit sux not because of it's players but because there's a moron called Michael Curry running the team. Watch Detroit and you will see what that guy did with Detroit. They have no organization on defense and they have 0 offensive plays.

Your right, but what you fail to see is Billups and Wallace were the anchors of the defense when Detroit was competitive. Now, Sheed and Prince are also good defenders, but the two best were Big Ben and Billups. Aside from that, that was in their prime, which Sheed and Hamilton aren't anymore. A backcourt of Miller and Hamilton isn't a good defensive backcourt.

You traded more talented players, who are also younger, for some washed up players. Your team will not win a championship and has absolutely no future in sight, especially since you traded your picks. To add to that you could lose Sheed, hes not a RFA(that I know of), so anyone can get him.

This was the worst attempt of a trade I've seen while playing this game, I can't even believe any part of you would think this is fair. You get absolutely destroyed in the deal. Its so lopsided that the Gasol to Lakers trade seemed like perfectly even for both teams.

How can this be vetoed when another GM with no vested interest in the deal is saying I am losing the trade? Clearly this isn't as unfair as many are saying it is.

Done. Where do I sign?

Don't you mean where does Orlando sign?

[xxSnEaKyPxx]

Post this on the trade boards, hows that. See what everyone else thinks of this trade.

[MadNESS]

if all these guys are so good and have such a damn bright future then why was philly the last team picked up?

the first this year is nothing.... the first next year will be 25-30 which is nothing....

iggy is just a good defender.... not great but good.... dude cant hit a consistant jump shot to save his life....

speights looks decent but will never be anything special... at best 12 ppg and 8 rpg with 2 blocks.

and young will be nothing.... SOMEONE PLEASE SAVE THIS.... THADDEUS YOUNG will emount to nothing..... i dont know why philly fans are so high on this guy.......NOTHING!

im getting good solid DEFENSIVE players... so go along with brands low post scoring and andre millers passing ability. this team would content for a title.... i know i keep saying that but they would.

If your so confident that its a fair trade, post it on the trade boards.

Also, Thaddeus Young has already amounted to something.

Go ahead and do it, I'm not bantering over this anymore. Obv. I like the deal for myself. If the commish veto's ok. You've made it clear you don't like the trade, we get your point.

They were the last picked because of the really bad contracts that are difficult. You think you will win with the washed up Detroit guys (and A.Miller and Sheed are both FA's and anybody could sign them, so no saying they will even be on your team.

I had Philly last time we did this and loved my team and said I would win.
Depth Chart
PG- J.Nelson , S.Curry(R), C.Bell
SG- Redd, McCants, C.Bell, M.Carroll
SF- T.Outlaw L.Kleiza, J.Singelton
PF- Brand, C.Brackins(R), C.Frye
C- Kaman, M.Speights, Frye

D-league- D.Cunnigham(R)

I finished ranked 17th. I was a little over the cap, but under the luxury number

And this is after free agency and the draft (not that you will have a draft after trading all your picks)

My thoughts exactly. I've played in a couple of these games over the years, and this is the first time I ever asked for a veto.

Philly: I understand you're swinging for the fences, but you're giving up some very talented young players that have already produced a playoff run (unlike the "talent" that scores but never wins). For what? Brand, Prince, Rip, no bench, no draft picks, and the right to offer bigger max deals than anyone else to Sheed and Dre.

That is NOT a championship team.

You got bent over.

Hell, give me a chance to give you a better package for those guys!

The Indiana Pacers and Charlotte Bobcats have agreed upon a trade.

Indiana sends Mike Dunleavy ($9,000,000), Roy Hibbert ($1,465,440), 2009 Dallas 2nd round pick, and Brandon Rush ($1,799,160) for Emeka Okafor ($9,537,500), Raymond Felton ($4,148,715) and Sean Singletary ($442,114).

Trade ID #5050894

^Contingent on previous deal

The Bobcats and Spurs have reached a deal.

Spurs send:

Bruce Bowen 4 Million
Fabrico Oberto: 3,600,000
George Hill : 1,006,200

Total: 8,606,200x 1.25 = 10,757,750 > 9,586,687

Bobcats send:

Mike Dunleavy: 9,000,000
Juwan Howard: 586,687
RETURN OF 2009 2ND ROUND PICK

Total: 9,586,687

Deal works

Dunleavy didn't fit into our long term plans. We're excited about the addition of George Hill who has proven he can perform at a high level when needed. Bruce Bowen and Oberto should do an awesome job mentoring our young guys.

Trade approved, please update rosters

Cleveland and Minnesota have agreed on a trade

Minnesota sends
Carney (1.66)
C.Smith (2.5, 2.3)
B.Cardinal (6.3 6.75)
2 second round picks (both from Miami)

Cleveland sends
E.Snow (7.313)
A.Law (2.072, 2.22, 2.94, 4.03)

Minnesota agrees and loves to add a young PG and the added cap space. We will never be able to use all of outr picks, so trading away 2 second rounds for cap space is great for us

Pfrior to accepting the deal, Cleveland waives Othello Hunter. Cleveland accepts the deal. We acquired 3 valuable bench players and 2 seconds for virtually nothing.

With that, Cleveland also would like to announce a deal with New York.

Wally Szczerbiak $13,775,000
Daniel Gibson $3,700,000
2010 2nd

for

Eddy Curry $9,723,983
Chris Duhon $5,585,000

While it appears like Cleveland got the raw end of the deal, I am very high on Duhon. Immediately, he brings credibility as a backup and can start if Bibby chooses to bolt. While Curry is overpaid, I still think I can get something out of him.

Cleveland/Minnesota and Cleveland/New York trades are approved, please update your rosters

[skorff26]

The NO Hornets and OKC Thunder have a trade to announce:

Peja Stojakovic 12.53m
Tyson Chandler 11.35m
Sean Marks .8m
Ryan Bowen .8m

25.48m

for

Malik Rose - 7.65m
Desmond Mason - 5.30m
Nenad Kristic - 4.78m
Thabo Sefolosha - 1.93m
Roko Ukic - 1.25m

20.91m

25.48m +.1m = 25.58m
20.91m + .1m = 21.01m

25.58m/21.01m = 121%

The trade is within 125% and works under the CBA.

Trade Approved, please update your rosters
