NBA Association Trade Talks

[Kia Kaha]

What do you think is a realistic trade for Greg Oden if im the timberwolves
I mean if the rumor mill comes up saying portland not denying availability of Greg Oden i think why not.

Do you think this is a fair trade. Remember im the wolves

Portalnd gets
1st round pick - 9th overall
2nd round pick - 3rd overall
DeSagana Diop

Wolves get
Greg Oden
2011 2nd round pick (from POR)

[Flight24]

anything involving portland giving up oden is unfair and unrealistic.

[Kia Kaha]

even after 2 years of playing ( 3 counting the injury) and he hasnt lived up to hype. They say he is on the market?? I mean is that trade fair??

[SuperNova854]

I'm talking about the Nets. Nets wouldn't be able too. Right? 3 bird years from Portland. Yeah, maybe your right.

still pretty unrealistic deal imo.

bird rights only go away if the player goes to fa, even if the player is traded, they still have bird rights. plus Aldridge is coming off his ROOKIE deal, which automatically makes him a RESTRICTED fa.

I encouraged them

Tip to everyone who wants to get big name players now, I suggest the following:
Amare Stoudemire - Suns were looking to shop him
Chris Bosh - Unhappy in TOR
Nate Robinson - Who wants him? :dontknow:
Josh Smith - I very seldom remember rumors on him, but I heard a few
Sean Williams aka Area 51 - NJ can't stand his attitude

You forgot Stephen Jackson

Not Monta Ellis anymore since he finally said he likes playing next to Curry.

[goDawgs1433]

Someone like Monta Ellis!

Not tryin to take on the 5yrs/$55M left on his deal when I'll have to resign Joe after this year then Horford down the road.

[SuperNova854]

Horford is restricted, so hes coming back no matter what ;)

Basically, when I started the season, I knew I was going to bring back either Brewer or Gomes. Not both, for financial reasons. I prefer Brewer's play style over gomes and think he has more upside.

Williams is getting shit for playing time in NJ, they are tired of his attitude etc etc. Hayes is filler to but would give me an outside shooter which i'm kinda lacking.

Gomes could actually end up starting for them at the 4 if they decide to play small ball. worst case scenario, he logs heavy minutes at the 3 and 4 behind rookie Terrence Williams and Yi Jianlian. Pecherov is only 23. Maybe he blossoms for them, he isn't part of my rotation.

Both Gomes and Pecherov are under team options for next season so the Nets could easily part ways with them at season's end if need be to maintain flexibility in 2010 FA.

Hayes is a small 2m expiring while S. Williams is also under team option for next year.

I really don't want to give up Gomes because of how solid/versatile he is but I dunno. He probably has the most trade value aside from the untouchables on my roster.

deal

[mfbmike]

salaries don't work with what I posted above. Off by like 500k.

gonna work it out later or something. see what I can come up with.

[Lupe]

try signing a bum for like 500k see if it'll work then

[Vinsane]

^ Involve a third team? ^

[albidnis]

What about David Lee. I believe he only signed a 1 yr contract and will probably leave next season. I need some big men in New Orleans.

See what expirings you have ...... IRL the Knicks are only dealing for players on one year deals for the 2010 rush .

So if you wanted to keep it realistic you would have to do that
