NBA 2K15 Trade Discussion Thread

Re: NBA 2K15 Trade Discussion Thread

That's how they run their system, their 3-headed PG tandem in IT, Dragic, and Bled. They wouldn't scrap the system for Bargs and a pick, outside of their main players, the rest could be used as assets. Bled isn't a bad contract either, if he was on the market, many teams would look at him.

I'm going to keep it realistic, I'll keep an eye on there record, and if the suns are doing bad and are out of the playoffs... I'm pulling the trade off. because that means the 3-headed monster is not working and they need a different approach.

Feel me.

Re: NBA 2K15 Trade Discussion Thread

I traded Gordon, Rivers, and a second rd pick for Jeff Green and Gerald Wallace. My reasoning is Boston is letting Green go anyways and get rid of one bad contract for another. At least Gordon can contribute.

Then right at the the deadline, i traded Ajinca and Salmons for C. Joseph from the spurs. I wanted a smart pg to run the backups. I think Ajinca would be a good fit on the Spurs.

I'm playing with the Pels and I really like them in real life (try to make it to 5-6 of their games a year), but I'm a Celtics fan. With that said I don't see how that benefits Boston at all.

How do this trade sounds?

Bragnani-first round pick for bledsoe

I know knicks can't trade 2015 first round pick..so i probably try to trade someone to get 2015 pick to please the suns, and make it realistic.

That's probably one of the worst trades that I've seen on here. Add Hardaway and another 1st and it would be a little better. Even then if Phoenix is competing for the playoffs then it wouldn't make much sense either.

Yes i agree...how to approach this.

Re: NBA 2K15 Trade Discussion Thread

My thinking is that it gets rid of a 10 m bad contract in Wallace for another 14 m contract that at least gives them a player in Gordon that they can use. I know they have Bradley but he can also play PG. It would benefit the Celtics if they plan on playing small ball. Since Butler did play a bunch of small ball, it is a possibility since Stevens is head coach.

Wallace is getting really low minutes and is pretty much healthy. All indications are Green will be traded. Reports are Pelicans are interested. I think if they can get rid of Wallace and have a max contract expiring at the same time, it is a viable option. They would have 14 mil off the books for the 2016 FA class which includes Durant. All while maybe being able to convince Gordon to stay for a smaller contract as a sixth man. Wallace is literally dead weight. They have no use for him.

Now, since i just realized J. Nelson is on the Celtics, i could see the Pelicans throwing in Ajinca and a first rounder to get Green, Wallace, and Nelson. Would that work?

I think that would be better. Knowing Ainge I just don't see him parting with Green and taking on another 4 million in salary in 2015 unless there's a 1st Rounder involved.

Then again it surprised the hell out of me when the took on Wallace cap contract in the Pierce/Garrett trade, so what do I know?

Just traded away Dragic (due to impending regression issue) for Tyreke Evans.

Fair deal?

Meh, you coulda gotten much better for dragic, a good big man woulda helped the Suns out, unless you already have something

A big man was my initial thoughts but Len and Plumlee are doing ok at the moment. With Dragic going I needed a replaced SG. Will concentrate on a big man later down the line.

You could've moved Bledsoe over to the 2 and played Thomas at the 1. Tyreke kind of ruins your spacing as well because he can't shoot very well, but if you're running a 4 in 1 out scheme with Morris at the 4 then you might be alright.

If I were you, I'd use Tyreke as a 6th man and start Thomas alongside Bledsoe. Evans is a solid scorer off the bench, past that he's a little underwhelming.

Well I play a lot on the fast break lie the real Suns so I picked up Evans due to his fast break badge. I only control the PG so am hoping he sprints straight to the basket when I get the ball like Dragic does.

Re: NBA 2K15 Trade Discussion Thread

Restarted my Grizz MyLeague and am using 30 team control. I'm looking to do a 3 team deal that also includes the Celtics and Cavs. Ultimately, I want to send Koufos to the Cavs. I want to get an experienced backup center for the Grizz, as well as a swingman that can score off the bench. Then I want to send a couple of picks to the Celtics.

I'm thinking something along these lines, but am very much open to advice.

Cavs receive: Kosta Koufos, future 2nd round pick from Grizz
Celtics receive: Dion Waiters, '15 1st round pick (Grizz owe Cavs a protected pick), future '2nd round pick from Grizz
Grizz receive: Brandon Wright, Jeff Green OR Evan Turner

OR

Cavs receive: Kosta Koufos, Tayshaun Prince
Celtics receive: Jordan Adams, Brendon Haywood, '15 1st round pick (Grizz owe Cavs a protected pick)
Grizz receive: Dion Waiters, Brandon Wright

Would love some feedback.

Re: NBA 2K15 Trade Discussion Thread

I'm the kings, before the start of the first season. traded jason Thomson and carl landry to the pacers and got Chris copeland and david west in return. what do you guys think of that trade?

Re: NBA 2K15 Trade Discussion Thread

I'm the Nuggets and am looking to move JJ Hickson and/or Timofey Mozgov. I think that a team like the Mavs could really use one of them, but they don't have assets to give me. Right now I'm looking to just gain picks/young players so that I can eventually pull of a deal to bring a good offensive SF who can turn into my go to scorer. Do you think Hickson is worth a a first rounder (like the 18-24 range)?

It's okay value wise, but cap wise it kinda put the Pacers in a bad position.

I don't like the first deal that much. The Celtics don't want any more guards because they already have Smart, Bradley, Young, and even Pressey. The Griz don't give up nearly enough in the second, Wright is more valuable than Koufous, and Waiters has top 6 pick potential. I don't think a three team trade makes sense for the deal, I think a Celtics/Cavs trade with Wright for some picks would be better.

I agree with you, but I think Boston should be removed from the deal.

The Cavs have shown a lot of interest in Koufos and he fills a huge need for them and they've also wanted to part ways with Waiters. This is a trade that has been discussed on ESPN and other outlets already, so I think a Koufos for Waiters straight up deal makes sense. If you want to throw in a 2nd round pick for the Cavs then that makes sense as well. To get your backup big, I'd say look elsewhere because Brandon Wright isn't going anywhere just yet.
