GMAT Winter Edition: Discussion

[BdeRegt]

Trading stops 12th Jan midnight est. I live in a different time zone. Ness could you close the trading thread then, please?

So 4 hours from now?? Or 3 hours?

Or 28 or 27?

27/28. Your choice lol. Thx mate.



Does anyone want to run NBA playoffs thread? Otherwise I'm thinking about just making a poll in the nba thread... who wins the playoffs... but I dont know if this makes you guys happy.

I can do playoffs if needed. Friday night I will just be unavailable mostly. I don't like the polls. I never know how you are supposed to vote if you say think team A would beat team B, Team B would beat team C, and team C would beat team A. You need the match ups for that scenario to break it.

[ATL Boy]

PG: Kyrie Irving, Tyus Jones, John Lucas
SG: Wesley Johnson, Alan Anderson
SF: Shabazz Muhammad, Justin Holiday
PF: Karl Anthony-Towns, Nemanja Bjelica, Brandon Bass
C: DeAndre Jordan, Cole Aldrich, Diamond Stone, Nikola Pekovic (injured)

Wolves looking to make a move for a wing in the 11th hour.

I won't say KAT is untouchable, but if you want him the price is either a superstar, or a star wing plus solid PF.

[Tony Snell]

PG: Russell Westbrook, Cameron Payne, Semaj Christon
SG: CJ McCollum, Andre Roberson, Anthony Morrow
SF: Al-Farouq Aminu, Jeff Green, Kyle Singler, Josh Huestis
PF: Serge Ibaka, Ed Davis, Jerami Grant

SG: Dwyane Wade, Isaiah Canaan, Denzel Valentine
SF: Jimmy Butler, Doug McDermott, Paul Zipser

Looking to find Jimmy a pal. Especially willing to trade my two 2017 1sts and young guys like Valentine, Grant, Portis, etc.

Can we discuss Drummond being called "at worst the 2nd best center in the league"? Am I way off in my ranking of him because in no particular order this year I'd have to go with all the following maybe having an issue with that?

Anthony Davis
DeAndre Jordan
Rudy Gobert
Marc Gasol
Boogie
Whiteside
Howard
Towns

I view Cousins as the best.

KAT and AD are PF's.
Jordan could be argued to be 2nd or 3rd.

Gasol, Whiteside and Gobert are not on the level, IMO.

But it's cool to call me out. I understand, it happens everygame.

If you consider, KAT and AD PFs makes it more defensible. I agree that Boogie is clearly number one. I have Gobert 2, DAJ 3 based on this season. Followed by Gasol, Drummond, Whiteside, Howard. That is just my rankings.

Hah, I was gonna say this same thing. BdeRegt's ranking is fairly close to mine, something like:
AD
Gobert
M. Gasol
Boogie
DeAndre
Towns
Howard
Drummond

Something like that. He's top 10 imo but not top 5, even if you call Kat/AD PFs which I don't really, his scoring ability is overrated, he's a great rebounder but not that great a defender and his poor ft shooting really hurts his efficiency but at least he's starting to improve that... He could still become really good but still has work to do.

[PDXKnight]

PG: Seth Curry, Pierre Jackson, J.J. Barea (injured)
SG: Wesley Matthews, Justin Anderson, Devin Harris,
SF: Harrison Barnes, Kyle Wiltjer, Vince Carter, Nicolas Brussino
PF: Dwight Powell, Dirk Nowitzki
C: Joakim Noah, A.J. Hammons, Chinanu

Noah can be had for straight expirings, would be a great last minute addition!

Wes and Dirk would also be great veterans to have on a good/great team and could be yours if the offer is fair!

[BdeRegt]

Warriors looking for a starting SG on an expiring contract (think Reddick might be only one in the league and he is on Clippers who aren't around) and have draft picks to trade with expirings.

Memphis open to anything. Just want good value.

Paul Pierce

Hey brother please accept our trade so I can update my roster - I have another one to post! Thanks!

[DroppinDimes]

PG: Darren Collison, Ty Lawson
SG: Garrett Temple, Ben McLemore, Arron Afflalo, Malachi Richardson
SF: Matt Barnes, Sam Dekker, Quincy Pondexter
PF: DeMarcus Cousins, Anthony Tolliver, Skal Labissiere, Omri Casspi
C: Kosta Koufos, Willie Cauley-Stein, Georgios Papagiannis

Kings are looking to add a legit 2nd guy for Cousins even if he's an expiring or on a PO. I can trade my youngs guys like WCS, Dekker, Skal, etc and a 1st for the right deal.

If you have an offer for Cousins, it has to be an overpay for me to consider it.

The Spurs are looking to trade Brook Lopez. Send any offers you may have. Kawhi/Tony Allen are the only pieces I cannot trade.

[Zion Wembanyama]

I offered...

Noel
Saric
Hield
Galloway
Evans
and some times my '17 1st

for guys like

DeRozan, PG24, Jimmy Buckets, Wall, H.Barnes, Irving, maybe be someone else... and I got shot down HARD!

But now that package with even worse baggage (Solomon Hill) and a worse pick is getting traded for Dame?!? WTF... HILARIOUS! The core of that deal got moved for LMA too! WOW... I must have really pissed in someones coffee.

[wackbone]

Looking to consolidate some of my young guys, looking to win now. Following an upcoming trade, the Spurs will have the following pieces to deal:

Tony Parker (Yes I know he isn't young, but he is somewhat cheap for the talent/experience he has)
Elfrid Payton
Dejounte Murray
Troy Daniels
Bryn Forbes
Mario Hezonja (Pending)
Norman Powell (Pending)
Jonathon Simmons
Kyle Anderson
Georges Niang
Pau Gasol (Exp)
Brook Lopez
Dewayne Dedmon

ESPECIALLY looking to deal either Pau or Brook, paired with some young guys, to get a longterm starting PF or SG. Or, I am about to have an influx of picks to use, and could use them along with young guys to get a more proven SG.
