NBA 2K19 - Trade Discussion Thread

Re: NBA 2K19 - Trade Discussion Thread

Starting an expansion team up in Vegas and wanted to do a realistic trade of some guys from the expansion draft to pull in some stars who need a fresh start. Want the trades to be as realistic as possible, so asking for opinions.

Vegas Receives:
PG John Wall - $19.17M
C Dwight Howard - $5.33M
2020 Wizards 1st Rd Pick Top 3 Protected

Wizards Receive:
PG Terry Rozier III - $3.05M
C Hassan Whiteside - $24.43M
2019 Vegas 2nd Rd Pick

My rationale is with Wall coming off injury IRL it allows them to get out of his big contract and pick up a young PG with RFA rights and Hassan with a PO.

Vegas Receives
PF Kevin Love - $24.12M

Cavaliers
SF Demarre Carroll - $15.4M
PF Jon Leuer - $10M
Vegas 2020 1st Rd Pick Lottery Protected

Gets them out of Love's deal who they are trying to move IRL, two expiring deals (Leuer through '20) and a 1st Rd pick for next season.

Cavs arent looking to just get rid of Love for fun though, they would be looking to get something in some value for hin.

Yeah saw a hypothetical from Portland of Gary Trent Jr. + Salary matches and first rounder. So I guess probably would either need to do an unprotected 1st along with a young player with some potential?

What big man could the Cavs get for Collin Sexton?

Would prefer to get someone around the same.age with the same potential. Could throw in a future 1st or JRs Expiring deal for a team needing space.

When is this trade happening? Because while I know 2K doesn't have every rule in the NBA rulebook in their game, Boston can't have both AD and Kyrie on the roster together until July 1st. The issue there becomes Kyrie's contract is over by then and wouldn't be able to be used as trade bait. Horford could be a sign-and-trade if Boston doesn't think they'll be able to keep him, and if Boston is losing Tatum they won't want to lose much else, even for AD.

Closest I can think would MAYBE be Tatum, Smart, & Baynes, maybe Yabusele. Even that's a lot. I honestly can't see something working with Boston giving up too much (plus irl AD wasn't planning to stay in Boston beyond 2020).

Theres just not a realistic trade because AD wasnt ever going to resign in Boston.

Realistic isn't so cut & dry. We have no idea why the narrative was that AD wasn't going to re-sign in Boston. His agent spoke about it, saying AD preferred LA or NY. His dad spoke about it, saying Boston showed no loyalty to Isaiah Thomas and that's why he didn't want AD to go. But you could change the narrative.

Tatum's contract becomes the issue with the trade. He only makes $6.7M this season and $7.8 the next. Davis is at $25.4M now and $27.1M next year. You''re going to have to get Boston to give up an extra $17-19M to make the trade work and at that point, how willing would Boston be to empty the chest in hopes that the success they have would convince AD to stay?

You could always add a 3rd team into the trade, making a variation of the Lakers trade. Here's a few ideas.

NO receives: Ingram, Kuzma, LAL 2019 1st Rd pick, PHX 2019 1st Rd pick
LAL receives: Davis
PHX receives: Ball

NO receives: Knox, Robinson, Smith Jr., NYK 2019 1st Rd pick, NYK 2021 1st Rd pick, NYK 2023 1st Round pick
NYK receives: Davis

NO receives: Hayward, Tatum, BOS 2019 1st Rd pick, MEM 2019 1st Rd Pick (moves to 2020 if MEM pick falls inside Top 3)
BOS receives: Davis, Moore

* technically this can work because I don't believe the rule preventing Davis & Irving being on the same team before the off-season is in the game

NO receives: McCollum, Collins, POR 1st Rd Pick
POR receives: Davis, Payton


My personal favorite

NO receives: Middleton, Bledsoe, MIL 1st Rd pick
MIL receives: Davis

Sabonis.

Indy are in need of a point guard and have a crowded front court. Sabonis seems like a nice fit with the young players the Cavs should hold onto.

I'm tempted to do this on my own MyLeague but I'm not sure the Cavs would trade Sexton.

Re: NBA 2K19 - Trade Discussion Thread

Im in the 2019 offseason and will follow the real timeline regarding the biggest FA names. But there will be some tweaks to several deals.

As Whiteside is a pretty good player in 2k and Nurkic isnt hurt, the Heat - Blazers thing doesnt make much sense. So Im thinking of throwing the Hawks (my team) into it.

Hawks get: Ryan Anderson, Goran Dragic, 2019 1st (9th)

Heat get: Jimmy Butler, Taurean Prince

76ers get: Josh Richardson

Is it fair? Maybe adding another future Heat pick?

I mean if anything sending Dragic to Dallas makes more sense than this

I could see something around Sexton for Sabonis and a protected 1st

It's not bad, but you will have a crowded backcourt with Dragic & Young. It's very unlikely you'll be able to play them both at the same time (maybe with a small ball lineup of Spellman-Collins-Huerter-Dragic-Young).
