I'm not saying that I have you guys all listed out by A-C; as you say - relationship building is a huge piece of the puzzle.
It's why I will respond despite whatever is going on in my personal life because the relationship I have with SOUL and what I love about the NBA is a huge to me.
I shared the "A-C" bit to explain my mentality vs. the open speculation and talk of others who don't need to be blamed.

TBH, nothing is stopping anyone for trying to make something work with me but the first step is the most important one.
I'd say most of the "first steps" I've received have been ineffective - should be more of a comment on working relation and value of the sender, than the receiver.
You're right though I could at least respond, and I'll make an effort to.
Especially if it was just a simple question - I could have answered those.


Robin, you do know that we can tell when our pm's are even being opened right? They remain in our outbox until we give up and delete them after a few weeks. So, it has nothing to do with the initial trade offers. How can it be when you haven't read them. You are deciding to ignore certain GMs. Out of 7 attempts to make a trade offer to you, only 1 was opened and that was when I offered you Aaron Gordon for Rui and was declined a few days before you traded him for the more expensive, less productive Parker. While others criticized that move, I remained silent because if you prefer Parker for some reason, that's your right. However, if you are saying that offer was such an egregiously bad offer to be ignored for the following months, I have to say that kind of insults me. I wasn't in the camp of asking bish to remove you, and still am not. I am however being swayed toward that position by your own words.

Rui wasnt traded for Parker...he was traded for a player that Robin asked me to go get...
