GM A Team 2010 Winter - Trades

[All In The Name]

Another trade to announce:

Dallas gives: Erick Dampier, Matt Carroll, 2011 2nd (from LAC)
Dallas gets: Alexis Ajinca, Marcus Thornton, Troy Murphy, James Posey, Derrick Brown
outgoing: $17.378 million
incoming: $21.439083 million
17.378 x 1.25 = 21.7225

Charlotte gives: Alexis Ajinca, Marcus Thornton, Troy Murphy, James Posey, Derrick Brown
Charlotte gets: Erick Dampier, Matt Carroll, 2011 2nd (from LAC)
outgoing: $21.439083 million
incoming: $17.378 million

We do this deal to add a few nice prospects, most notably Marcus Thornton, who we plan on keeping as our SG of the future.

[bryant08]

Charlotte accepts. We immediately waive the unguaranteed contract of Erick Dampier. We look forward to being players in the FA market and really can't believe we had to give up Marcus Thornton, but that's the price to pay.

[Mascot]

The Mavs and the Timberwolves have reached an agreement!

Dallas gives: Joel Przybilla, Andrew Ogilvy, 2011 Second Round Pick (from Memphis), 2012 Second Round PIck (from Minnesota)
Dallas gets: Thaddeus Young, Kosta Koufos
outgoing: $7,905,300
incoming: $4,200,580

Minnesota gives: Thaddeus Young, Kosta Koufos
Minnesota gets: Joel Przybilla, Andrew Ogilvy, 2011 Second Round Pick (from Memphis), 2012 Second Round PIck (from Minnesota)
outgoing: $4,200,580
incoming: $7,905,300
Minnesota is far enough under the cap for this to work.

Dallas accepts. It's tough to lose a vet like Przybilla and a recent draft pick, but we like the prospects we're getting. Koufos is young and should develop nicely with increased playing time, and we think Young is already a decent starter who could very well become a star in this league.

This trade starts the rebuild for Dallas. Kidd, Marion, Arenas, Battier, and Dampier (with his useful contract) are all on the block, and even Dirk could be moved at the right price.

Houston and Dallas have agreed to a pretty big deal.

Houston trades:

Andrei Kirilenko $17,823,000
Jermiane Taylor $780,871
2011 Clippers 2nd rounder

Dallas trades:

Gilbert Arenas $17,730,693

Clearly the Salaries work.

Why? GIlbert Arenas is a star. Simply put. He was suspended for the 2009-2010 season. We are currently in the 2010-2011 season so he is "playing". We take on some what of a risk here cuz he has a pretty big contract, but we feel it is worth is since we aren't giving up much here. We liked Taylor alot for his potential and AK47 is a huge expiring, which has a lot of value in these games, but again we feel we had to do this deal. Arenas/Boozer combo is one that i like alot.

Dallas and Portland have agreed to a blockbuster deal!

Dallas gives: Dirk Nowitzki, Tayshaun Prince, James Posey, Jason Kidd, Rodrigue Beabouis
Dallas gets: Greg Oden, Emeka Okafor, Hedo Turkoglu, Steve Nash, Dante Cunningham, 2012 1st
outgoing: $48.795964 million
incoming: $39.429157 million

Portland gives: Greg Oden, Emeka Okafor, Hedo Turkoglu, Steve Nash, Dante Cunningham, 2012 1st
Portland gets: Dirk Nowitzki, Tayshaun Prince, James Posey, Jason Kidd, Rodrigue Beabouis
outgoing: $39.429157 million
incoming: $48.795964 million
$39.429157 million x 1.25 = $49.2864462 million

Dallas accepts. Wow, huge deal, and it's tough to get rid of such great players, especially Dirk, but we love who we're getting in return. We feel Oden still has massive potential, and Nash can either provide a great veteran for our younger guys to learn from or possibly be moved in another deal.

It was really tough for us to part with Nash and Oden, but teaming Dirk with Roy and Stoudemire was simply too much to pass up. Not to be overlooked, we love how Kidd and Prince fit with them. It's also worth noting that while our post defense suffers, our perimeter defense looks great after this deal.

Both Kidd and Nash were getting up there in years and we like getting a nice young PG in Beabouis back in the deal as well. We think he'll be a great fit next to Roy. It hurts to lose Cunningham, but we feel that Rodrigue is a superior prospect.

We don't like taking on Posey's deal but felt okay about it because we sent out Turkoglu as well.

Ultimately, this deal came down to Dirk.

[All In The Name]

Another deal to announce, contingent upon my last deal officially going through:

Dallas incoming: Sasha Vujacic, Luke Walton, 2011 1st, 2011 2nd (from Minny) ($10.735113 mil)
Dallas outgoing: Hedo Turkoglu ($9.8 million; 9.8 x 1.25 = 12.25)

Lakers incoming: Hedo Turkoglu ($9.8 million)
Lakers outgoing: Sasha Vujacic, Luke Walton, 2011 1st, 2011 2nd (from Minny) ($10.735113 mil)

As a rebuilding team, we feel that getting rid of Hedo's contract (Walton's is bad, too, but not as bad) outweighs the hit in talent.

We shave another mil off this year's salary and get a player that will at least offer some production off the bench.

LA accepts

Washington and Orlando announce a trade
Orlando trades
Dwayne Collins 500,000
HOU 2012 1st
for
Washington trades
Bass 4,000,000
Jodie Meeks $762,195

Washington hates to get rid of Bass, but Collins has a similar upside and the future pick was too much to resist.

[MJallday59]

Orlando accepts. With the big men available in FA becoming scarce, we're excited to bring back Bass. He's been coming into his own lately and should contribute for us now.

[TMACFORMVP]

The Bulls, and the Grizzlies have agreed upon a trade.

The Bulls send Rodney Stuckey ($2,767,126), and Tyrus Thomas ($7,000,000) in exchange for Devin Harris ($8,981,000). Deal works.

Bulls accept, we hate to lose Stuckey, and newly acquired Tyrus, but Thomas was never in our plans, and we needed a more natural PG. Harris gives us a bit more stability, and has been playing at a much higher level these past two months.

[Snakebites]

We accept.

We were very reluctant to give up that much green to Tyrus to make such a deal work, but we had been looking for a deal in which we acquired some real depth for a while now. We also love Stuckey's size and skill set and feel he makes our backcourt extremely difficult to guard.

Its a case of buy low, sell high on Harris, and we know he'll be successful on his new team.

[pja123]

Knicks agree.

It's tough to deal Nene, but we get two up-and-coming bigs in Thompson and Jordan along with a good bench scorer in Leandro Barbosa.

[All In The Name]

Dallas agrees. We shed salary and get even younger.

[lukekarts]

Phoenix Agrees. We get a starting point guard in Conley which gives us one of the most exciting young duo's in the NBA (Conley/Lawson).
