GM A Team 2010 Winter - Discussion

The system matters everywhere. You think if Granger had to play next to Lebron or Kobe he would still get the same stats? The fact is he's in that system and putting up some of his best numbers in years. He's closer to be considered top 5 in MVP voting right now than he is off that list.

Whether or not he is an MVP candidate is a poor way in determining player's real talents. The fact that Granger does what he does with less talent around him is more impressive.

What exactly is Granger doing? He's getting more shots because there's less talent around him. It's not like he's winning games. And he's not shooting all that well this year.

And I beg to differ about your MVP comment, being considered for MVP is a good way to see how valuable a player really is. If you don't think talent and value correlate, then I don't know what to tell you.

LA Lakers have an Okafor/Artest package available for a SF upgrade. Hit me up at rocdogg05@yahoo.com or use AIM which is the exact same as my email.

Hi all,
Im new to the game, so I'll try to learn as I go, sorry in advance for rookie mistakes.

Im looking for a franchise big, or even a franchise 3 man to put next to Stuckey, and possibly Prince as well. Everyone else is available for the right price though, especially Rip, Gordon and Charlie V. I will look closely at expiring deals as well.

Cheers.

check your emails Coxy and even if you don't like a proposal it is still a good idea to reply. You can always haggle/negotiate or just say no. Communication is important though.

Im looking to get a star PG or SG for Westbrook and added incentives. Also Jefferson, and Bogut are on the block just to gauge their value who knows we might end up doing a deal.

Sorry, complete newb.

you announce it in the trade thread.

Write out salaries and math to prove that it works. Then include a short explanation of why you did the trade.


By the way, I'm turning your Warriors around.

Treat those Warriors like royalty my friend.

for clarification, the original version of the lac/noh trade has been revised. it is no longer gordon/kaman/r. davis/2010 min first for paul/peterson. it is now gordon/kaman/camby/2010 min first for paul/peja

[Coxy]

Im in the market for a Centre.

Am willing to trade Rip, Prince, Stuckey, Bynum, Jerebko for the right Centre to fit into the Pistons.

does it put NOR under the lux tax?

[calderon13]

San Antonio places all the players on their roster on the block except for Duncan and Blair. Manu Ginobili and Richard Jefferson MUST go. Send in your offers at ar.maks89@hotmail.com

[Coxy]

Prince is definately on the block, and I'm looking for a C in return.

[roc]

If/when the latest trades are approved...

The LA Lakers are placing Leandro Barbosa on the trading block. Looking for a defensive minded PG that can hit the 3 or a SF of the same description.

[Mascot]

gone out of town for at least 36 hours...email sent why

[BlackIce]

I think he is, but when you consider his age and contract (also contract situation not a 2010 FA) he's a top 10 player in terms of value, fo sho. Meh. Just my opinion.

So you're saying Iggy and Speights have enough value to get a top 10 player in terms of value? (Since I doubt many people believe that, would that make your trade really veto worthy?)

In no order
Lebron
Kobe
Wade
CP3
Dwight
Duncan
Dirk
Melo
Roy
Bosh
Nash
Deron
Durant
Gasol
Yao (when playing)

Also might be better- Pierce, Amare, Boozer, maybe even Crash.

I think he's in the 15-20 range, but to say he is definitely top 15 is absurd.

Granger makes 11 mill next season, he's young, he's locked in long term. In terms of value I haev him higher then a few of those guys. But to each their own.

Jose Calderon, Jarrett Jack, Expirings on the block! Looking for a different PG or 6th man type swingman. Send Offers to HaHa123570@hotmail.com

[TMACFORMVP]

With the unfortunate event that has occured in Mascot's life, causing him to miss the next two days, he's asked me to approve, or handle any trades during that time span. Would love to keep it to a minimum on trades, but if there are any trades in that time frame, you can send the vetoes to me, or I'll wait the 24 hour time slot, and approve the trade.
