They said my team was injury-prone so I simply made it the deepest team in the BAT. Now what will the H8R's say?

And before the birds start chirping about contracts and cap-management, I GM a team that plays in Los Angeles that ISN'T the Clippers. You want depth? It comes at a price! Yao is a HUGE expiring and Bibby, Barbosa, Diaw, and Posey all come off the cap at the same time.

mags-

I assume that all trades still have to be 1 for 1, 2 for 2, etc right?

You can't trade one player for three now trying to get salaries matched up?

You're going to have to find at least 15 MPG for Bibby, Barbosa, and Brown. How are you going to make that possible? I don't see much team chemistry...

And, I don't care where you play, 82 million is 82 million... I've had the Lakers in the last 3 BAT's, and I never used that excuse. Just because you picked them early, doesn't mean you get to abuse the cap.

PG: Ricky Rubio(4) — Mike Bibby(5.5) — Leandro Barbosa(7.1)
SG: Kevin Martin(11) — Shannon Brown(2.2)
SF: Danny Granger(11) — Boris Diaw(9) — James Posey(6.5)
PF: Marreese Speights(1.7)— Michael Beasley(5)
C: Yao Ming(17.7) — Zydrunas Ilgauskas(1.4)

You have 82 million in salary....

Barbosa, Diaw, Posey, Beasley, and Bibby are all overpaid/signed too long.

If I was judging your team, I'd give you a 9, 5, 3 in win now, youth, and cap management.

17/30. = 56%


I don't mean to sound brass, but if you're going to want a review, I'm going to be honest... sorry.

2010 I do like your team especially now with the news that Yao should be back and the fact that you have a legit veteran PG in Bibby. You do have nice depth especially in the backcourt. The one concern I would have is the fact that your two centers combine maybe expected to play half a season at best. You have very little froncourt depth and are truly relying on Yao to stay healthy an entire season, something I don't think he can do. Otherwise you have a nice team.

About Rubio. He isnt coming over until next year so you only have his rights no?

[I am Ra]

justdatdude and LeBron2NY2010 you have mail

[bishnykfan]

About Rubio. He isnt coming over until next year so you only have his rights no?

Thats the way most people look at it. Rubio as a future asset only, but according to mags official rules I guess he is to be judged as an active NBA player.

Oh. Okay. I was not aware. He wouldve been picked higher though if everyone didnt count him as a future asset.

Now you can, that the Draft is over. The contingent being you have to make it up by picking up Free Agents to make sure you always have atleast 12 Man Roster.

Yeah, agreed 100%

[magnumt]

I also have $30 Million in Expiring Deals. Possibly looking to deal. PM 1st, then my Asst. Miklo.

[bishnykfan]

The Spurs are actively looking to make moves. Carl Landry, our 26 year old PF who averaged 17/6 last year in just 31 minutes, who is also on a $3M expiring deal is on the block. He can be moved depending on the deal, ideally looking for a three. Anyone else could be had depending on the deal although Westbrook and Smith, our cornerstones, would be very difficult to acquire.

We also have good veteran players Jamal Crawford, Kenyon Martin, Jared Jeffries on large expiring deals if anyone is looking to dump salary while still compete.

so why cant I trade a player to a team with capspace?

[I am Ra]

Toronto Raptors receive:


Matt Barnes ($1,765,000 this year)

Minnesota Timberwolves receive:



Tibor Pleiss ($473,604 this year unguaranteed)


We accept because we get an unsigned 2nd round pick therefore his deal can be completely unguaranteed. This deal works because he is under the cap. Tibor Pleiss' deal will be 4 years, 3.2 million dollars. All unguaranteed.

LeBron2NY2010 told me to post this, accepting the deal via email.

I, LeBron2NY2010, accept the swap of Matt barnes for tibor pleiss.

If its not enough he can accept later.
