NBA 2K19 - Trade Discussion Thread

Re: NBA 2K19 - Trade Discussion Thread

Started a MyLeague last night after tinkering with sliders.... My team is Boston. But ill take over a few teams to make moves when need be. I traded Butler to Miami in a three team deal that included the Kings.

Miami gets....
Jimmy Butler
Tyus Jones
2nd round pick from Sacramento

Minnesota gets....
Josh Richardson
Justice Winslow
James Johnson
Ben McLemore (from Kings)
Future first unprotected from Miami

Kings get....
Gogui Dieng
Top 10 protected pick from Miami

I hope Miami gets Jimmy to re-sign ASAP because that's a steep price. I would have been fine if there had been only 1 future first conveyed, but 2? Miami already owes one in 2020 completely unprotected.



But, Riley is pulling the strings and if they're competitive in the East, no one will care. Unless one of those picks turn into a star.

For sure a steep price.... Miami has a glut of wings. None of which are all-star caliber but they are deep. Even after that trade they would have wade, waiters, ellington, Johnson and butler as the 2/3's. They even get a backup PG. I usually have Wade pretty much serve as the backup. Two firsts is alot. I know the Kings would want a pick for taking on Diengs deal. But maybe two 2's would of made more sense.

Re: NBA 2K19 - Trade Discussion Thread

I like your butler trade makes sense for all involved . Love this thread and hope it keeps on growing. I traded kemba walker and biyombo to the 76ers for fultz , Wilson Chandler, and a 1st round pick. Thoughts?

I don't like the move for the 76ers as taking Biyombo back means the 76ers will not be able to bring anyone else in this offseason especially when you factor in a new deal for Kemba. If you just look at swapping Chandler for Biymombo on a 1 for 1 deal then the 76ers should receive a 1st round pick and in this case they are giving one up. Typically 2k is bad with the 76ers year 1 so the pick has a chance to be early 20's.

Walker is a all star type player and maybe even better then whoever the 76ers can realistically sign this summer. However they don't really need another G as they have T.J on the bench and even two other rookies. They also give up the 1st overall pick Fultz whose rating goes up like +2 if you move him to SG. Its not directly tied to your trade, but even after 2 games Fultz has proven his shooting should get a upgrade as default rosters as his FT and mid range shoot 60 or so.

Even though Walker is a lot more proven then Fultz the 76ers lose a draft pick plus the ability to sign anyone else. If i'm the 76ers I just keep my cap space open and hopes to sign Kemba this summer and keep Fultz. Even if they fail they can use the cap space to bring in 2 bench players around 10 million per year like Tryeke Evans, KCP, Mirotic etc. Fultz still has A potential in the game where Walker will get a new deal around 29 so he could start to decline in a year or two.

I spent so much time with the 76ers last year in 2k I've became very protective of their cap space and assets lol

Re: NBA 2K19 - Trade Discussion Thread

I'm using Indiana and I've been struggling a bit so far. I think they have a decent core with Collison, Dipo, Bogs, Young, Turner, then Evans and Sabonis first up off of the bench, but after that it gets a little dicey. I guess Joseph and O'Quinn are decent bench guys but McDermott has been really bad for me.

I wouldn't mind trying to improve by bringing in a SF/PF... I'd be most interested in someone who can guard athletic/bigger SF's because Bogs versus guys like LeBron and Simmons (I've played both and got torched) is tough.

I'd be willing to trade a first and potentially take on a bad contract (if needed) to bring in the right player... mainly because let's face it, Indiana just isn't a FA destination. I was looking at a list of their top FA signings ever and man it was depressing.

The Clippers and Suns are both bad so someone like Tobias Harris (one year deal) or T.J. Warren if I wanted to go the scorer route. If I wanted to go pure defense the MKG or maybe Justice Winslow. Both will be RFA's. Charlotte is bad and Miami is okay but Winslow may be expendable for them, especially if they can get a draft pick back. I'd love to have someone like Aaron Gordon since they Pacers were interested in him in real life, but I think it may be too soon for Orlando to move on from him since they just re-signed him... and even if they were ready the price may be too steep.


What deals would be decent for those guys or is there anyone else that I'm missing?

I’m on the iPad so can’t type a long detailed reply

Miami is the first team that comes to mind they are typically stuck in the middle or bottom of the east. They have almost zero draft picks, no cap room going foward plus no star player. They have a lot of over priced wings that are high 70s.

You could get Winslow plus take on a high priced player like a Tyler or James Johnson. You could give them a expiring deal and a 1st

Re: NBA 2K19 - Trade Discussion Thread

I'm using Sonics in expansion draft alongside Vancouver Ravens. Is it fair deal if I trade two of expiring wings (Wes Matthews and Ariza) for Blake Griffin straight up? I'm using Seattle Sonics.

Hmmm interesting that would allow the pistons to tank and start over in the offseason.

If I’m running the pistons I’m asking you to take on leuer or Galloway’s contract as well if that’s possible or some kind of other smaller asset. I’ve not seen how Blake progress and declines on 2k19 but that contract could be rough if he gets hurt.

I will have around 80 mil in cap space next year and even more if Biyombo does not take his PO so taking a chance on Blake is fine with me since I wanna kickstart the franchise as soon as possible. They free up 35 mil in cap space and I get a star. With Blake's 35-ish mil I'd have 45 mil to fill out the team or 62 if Biyombo declines his PO. Enough for another big splash in off season (KD coming home???) or fill out the roster with short-term JJ Redick type contracts.


Is there another star that'd be available for similar package? I am not willing to give up anything more than that...

Wiggins from the wolves might work for a Similar package as he is owed a lot of $ and maybe Otto Porter

It all depends on where you are currently, standings, etc. However, unless the Pistons are seriously tanking and think they have a shot at someone like Kawhi or J8mmy Butler, then I'd say that's a hard pass from Detroit.

Griffin is still a positive player and I just don't think they traded all of those assets to get Griffin, then sell him off for cap space. Even if they're completely out of it, I think they would still want a 1st and/or a decent prospect.

Thanks for the feedback. For reference I have the 1990 draft coming up( Payton, Coleman, Antonio Davis etc) so about 5 or so players that will make an impact . 76ers are 3rd in the east and sitting 7th in the league and the hornets are horrible sitting at 13th in the east . I'm the raptors but I like to do all the trades myself trying to make it fair as possible. The 76ers 1st round draft pick will be in the 20s and I figured it will take at least 3 seasons for fultz to get to walkers overall (87) so the hornets get fultz plus biyombo off the books 1 year sooner and the 76ers ( in my head lol ) decided their big 3 is ready to compete now with walker instead of fultz . On another note any suggestions for trading whiteside from the heat ? I was thinking of sending whiteside , Winslow to pelicans for Mirotic and 1st round pick. Will have to send some others to make the salary work . Any thoughts on whiteside trades? And also Blake Griffin trades ? Pistons are 15th in the east

If you look back a few post I think the general thought is the Pistons wouldn't trade Griffin for a pure salary dump at this point since the odds are they wont be able to use the cap space to sign anyone better then him. Since they are 15th in the East they might could sell off some assets other then their big 3. If they keep up their bad record and land in the top 10 they can draft the SG/SF they desperately need and keep AD and Blake.

The heat have way to many SG's and need draft picks. The Pelicans trading a protected 1st round pick is what I had them do. They have Davis and Randall so their need is more one of the 6 overpriced SG/SF on the heat other then for Whiteside.

The $ side of things this should work however I would feel better if the Pelicans got one of the SG like Ellington or Waiters

Heat Get - Mirotic, Hill, Ajinca
Pelicans Get - Whiteside and Winslow

This heat / pelicans trade is what I'm about to do with pels giving up a 1st rd pick lottery protected . Your right the pels need more wings even after this trade they add Winslow who could be a future piece . How about trading for Korver/Clarkson on Cleveland to help pelicans shore up the wings and bench? ..... yes the Blake Griffin trade is tough with his huge contract . Just in terms of teams who would want Blake without the cap issues ... Mavericks, blazers ( for McCollum?) Cant think of many teams who would want Blake

Since I believe your doing a 30 team control I would go change Clarkson to a SG he goes up 2 or 3 overalls. The cavs still have two PG worthy of minutes in Sexton and Hill and Clarkson is a upgrade over Korver / JR / Osman. A straight swap of AJinca for Korver would work with maybe like a 2nd or something going to the Cavs. The cavs save the $ next year and they don't have many bigs on the roster. The Pelicans upgrade at SG and don't really have to give up anything.

It would have to be a team that isn't going to be able to use all the cap space to sign a big name FA so your looking at teams like the Kings, Pacers, Wiz, Blazers etc. The teams that aren't in the big markets that are kinda stuck in the middle willing to take the gamble. I think it would have to be a team that offers them almost all expiring contracts plus another asset like a future 1st. Blake, Turner and Dipo for the Pacers makes for a pretty fun trio. The issue is how does trading Blake make the Pistons better in the long run if they aren't able to use the cap space toward signing a all star type player ?
