The Official Rate My Trade Thread

[Suntan Superman]

Melo, Reke, Iggy, and Lin on the same team, in the same lineup, are there enough basketballs currently in existence to make everyone happy?

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

I am the Raptors. I have played 10 games to a 4-6 record. So management thinks some changes have to be made, maybe not for this season, but for the future...

These two trades came up when I was browsing for trades, no trade finder, but I control all 30 teams, so the CPU can't reject a trade... I like the second trade more for building for the future, but the first is a better deal... I'm leaning towards the second one...

Now I know its not customary for teams to trade 1st round picks, but if the deal is good enough, some teams have to jump on it...

TRADE #1:

Toronto gets:
Devin Harris OVR 76
Aaron Afflalo OVR 78
Danillo Gallianari OVR
DEN '12 1st round pick, * trade value

Denver gets:
Andrea Bargnani OVR 70
Demarr DeRozan OVR 73
UTA '12 1st round pick via TOR, ** trade value

Utah gets:
Jose Calderon OVR 74
TOR '12 2nd round pick, * trade value


OR

#- indicates that I might not include player in final trade


TRADE #2:

Toronto Gets:
Devin Harris
Luke Walton
CLE '12 1st round pick, *** trade value
Alonzo Gee #

CLE gets:
Andrea Bargnani
DeMarr DeRozan
Gary Forbes #

UTAH gets:
Jose Calderon
TOR '12 2nd round pick, * trade value

If I do trade #2, I'm thinking I need an SG or two, both Brandon Roy and Allen Iverson are still sitting in the FA, leaning towards signing Roy to a two year deal, because I don't know how much longer AI will be in the league and Roy has a good nine years on him in youth.

Thoughts? Suggestions?

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

Whatd you think of my proposed deal for you to get conley?

I like it, I just think Memphis wouldn't do the deal unless they dropped Randolph's salary. That's why I would like to find a third team to take Randolph....

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

In a Lakers association, trying to get rid of either Bynum or Gasol, preferably Bynum since I've grown a liking to Pau and know him and Kobe have a good relationship, Kobe and Bynum... not as much. Haha.

So I went to propose a trade and stumbled upon this... now I don't know if the CPU will accept, but I want to get an opinion before I try it...

Nuggets get:
Andrew Bynum OVR 84 (4 star value)
Matt Barnes OVR 72 (1 star value)
Jordan Hill OVR 64 (1 star value)
13 1st round pick (1 star value)

Lakers get:
Wilson Chandler OVR 81 (2 star value)
Javale McGee OVR 72 (2 star value)
Kenneth Faried OVR 66 (1 star value)
Kostas Koufos OVR 56 (1 star value)

Fair or not? If not, who gets the raw end of the deal? I personally think Denver comes out a little better than I do in the trade.

This seems like a good 2k trade, but not a realistic one. I don't think the Nuggets would trade away their core/chemistry for Bynum, who sometimes lacks intensity and drive. It would completely ruin the locker room imo. Jordan Hill is a good pickup, he could replace Faried.

Also, Lakers would never trade their star center to a team that took them to 7 games in the playoffs. If they do trade him, I believe he goes to the East.

Overall, I don't think the Nuggets & Lakers would ever do a deal, but like I said, it's a good 2k trade and I'd be all for it.

I don't like trade #1 at all.
You make out like a bank robber in it.

Trade 2, I do like.
Raptors trade: Derozan, bargnani, calderon,2nd rd, gary forbes
Recieve: Devin harris, luke walton, 1st rd pick, gee

Utah trades: Devin harris
Gets: Calderon who helps them compete now, 2nd rd pick

Cle: trades gee, walton, 1st rder
Gets: derozan (the sg they need), bargnani, can be played at center alongside thompson, and forbes as a role player.

Looks good to me.

Melo, Reke, Iggy, and Lin on the same team, in the same lineup, are there enough basketballs currently in existence to make everyone happy?

I actually ended up making a different, yet similar trade in the association...

TOR gets:
Devin Harris
Andris Biedrins
1st round 2012 pick from GSW

GSW gets:
Andrea Bargnani
Jamaal Magloire

UTA gets:
Jose Calderon
2nd round 2012 pick from TOR

I really like the way my team is feeling now without the distraction of Bargnani (I know he's skilled on the game, but he's probably one of the 5 people in the game I can never seem to score with. haha)

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

I am the Lakers and plan on simulating the first season and shaking up the roster a little in the 2012-2013 season. I want to keep the core of Bryant, Gasol and Bynum since Jim Buss recently said that they're not looking to make any blockbuster trades or free agent signings. In the game how can I realistically acquire Michael Beasley? In real life I would trade Lamar Odom's TPE and a 2013 first round pick but the game doesn't include trade exceptions. Would a combination of Hill, Blake, and a pick work? I also want a lottery pick so I can draft Damian Lillard, how do you guys think I can do that?

You can't without trading one of the three away. On every roster, Beasley is at least a 3-star trade value, and on 2K Rosters, Beasley is a 5-star.

For the lottery pick, you could package one of your 12/13 1st rounders plus another player for a lottery pick, but Lillard is picked at 10th-12th in most draft classes in my association, so that may be tricky.

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

Doing a suns rebuild,

Sums trade: Steve Nash, Grant Hill, 13 1st round pick, Jared Dudley
Grizzlies trade: Gilbert Arenas, Rudy Gay, Darrell Arthur, 13 2nd round
Pick.

I realize it sucks losing Jared but the 12 draft should make up for it. And there's only one player over 30 on my roster now. Bench player lol. Thoughts?(signed Greg oden if it's any help)

I know but I could use trade override. As cheap as it may seem to be sometimes it's only necessary because the game doesn't take real life situations into account. Whenever I try to recreate the original Chris Paul trade (that sent him to the Lakers) the Rockets always decline because the game doesn't know that they overvalue Gasol in real life. Last year the Timberwolves offered the Lakers Beasley for a 1st rounder and the Lakers declined (God knows why). So with trade override on, what would be the most fair trade I could pull off for Beasley?

EDIT: I could force a trade that almost happened last year where Steve Blake would be sent to Portland, Jamal Crawford would go to Minnesota and Beasley would come here to L.A.

Lol, the grizzlies are NOT going to trade Rudy gay for a vet that will stick around for 1-2 years, another 38 year old who will not contribute and most likely will retire, a mid 1st rd pick and an, at best, rotation player...let alone add in a 2nd rd pick, arenas, and arthur

They sent me the counter offer. The original was Nash and a first round draft pick for Gay.

Yea, but 2k's trade logic is completely awful.

If you want to trade based on what the 2k computer says, you can get guys like kevin love for a late 1st round pick and some spare parts.

I got the game 4 days ago. I didn't know lol. What am I supposed to do, not trade?

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

One idea is to put trade over ride on and make realistic offers

I mean it's a game. If u want rto trade no one is going to stop you from having fun. It's your game

But most ppl on here value trades by if they are realistic at all

Or even though the computer considers that fair you could add in to make it more realistic
