Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

Angel fan I would say the worst thing that can happen is that you don't get any better on the court but your salary is a lot better so that would be a good trade.

For me I am looking at getting a big man for the sun. I am 18-19 right now with playing and simulating and I almost always lose when I sim and I never get more rebounds or points in the paint. So who do you think will be a good big man who can run the court and also hit from close to mid range?

Roy Hibbert
Jason Thompson

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

Using the Clippers I want to get rid of Kaman. Does nothing but slow my team down and adds my team worst -1.4 estimated wins added. Here is the deal I'm thinking about:

Clippers Trade
- Chris Kaman (73, B-Pot, 2 yrs $24.5, 28yrs old)
- Rasual Butler (67, Blows, 1 yr $2.5, 31)

Rockets Trade
- Shane Battier (73, 1 yr $7, 32yrs old)
- Jared Jeffries (67, 1 yr $7, 29)

Brad Miller is 34 and starting for Yao who broke ankle and is out 6-8 weeks with 1yr left on contract.

What you think?

Shane is a good defender but he's old. Jeffries sucks.
Trade Kaman for Gerald Wallace straight up or you can add a draft pick just to make it a bit more fair.

Whoah, few trades made there, quite possibly good for you as D12 is still young while Wade and Bosh are both 29 i think

That makes me cringe. Obviously unrealistic as Wade and Bosh will never be traded, but I don't think you care which is fine.

Anyways, this trade really limits your team offensively, and makes you worse defensively, so I don't see where this trade benefits you. D12 is good on defense, but no one else you got it, while as Bosh is a good defender and Wade is a top 2 or 3 wing defender in the entire league, next to LeBron and maybe Kobe. I don't think your team has an identity now, maybe you can find one but what's the game-plan? Toss it to D12 and have LeBron cut all day? I don't know, I just can't see it working better than a Wade, LeBron, and Bosh trio, I really can't.

Good luck though.

Wade is 29, but Bosh is 26 years old, but hey who really cares lol.

Charlotte would not let go of Crash for Kaman and a pick, no way. He's pretty much the face of our franchise and has been here since day one. It'd take a lot more than a Chris Kaman to get Wallace from the Bobcats.

But hey, it depends on if you care for realism or not, it is a game after all. I'm not saying don't do it, I'm only saying there's no way that would go down in real life.

My plan was to run the Heat like the Magic, let Dwight do his thing in the post while surrounding him with three point shooters. I have Jack, Anthony Morrow, Peja Stojakovic, and Eddie House. Plus I can use LeBron as the point.

I think this is a good trade for the heat. You pick up a really good defensive big man who is still young but you lose scoring since bosh is a better scorer. I consider bosh an over sized SF since he mostly shoots jumpers, hardly in the post and gets abused in the paint (from what I seen). Ryan anderson can be a good PF to have since he just shoots jumpers like bosh and plays decent defense. You lose defense on the wing with giving up wade but the scoring would be the same since arenas is a top scorer when healthy.

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

Nets trade (me) quinton ross (63) humprhies (69) to the suns (cpu) for marcin gortat (69) , I think its fair, I have no one to backup brook lopez and I wanted a defensive guy and humphries was getting no playing time which he will get in phoenix

That's a good trade for both teams. Raptors need a defensive big man and the Bobcats need some scoring, nice trade.

It's fair as far as value goes, definitely so, but I think the Suns really need to keep Marcin Gortat as he really helps them on the defensive end. Now, Robin Lopez or Marcin Gortat is in for most of the game, whereas before they got Gortat, Lopez could only play 24-30 minutes, and the rest of the time they would get chewed up on the defensive end. Again, it's fair, but I think the Suns need that 7'0" big man, that's just me.

Clippers gets:
Carlos Boozer
Jeff Green
13 1st round pick (Grizzlies)

I'm the Bulls. What do you guys think?

Like I said above, as far as value goes that's pretty fair for both teams. For the Bulls, you get a running mate for Derrick Rose, which is great, and a really talented point guard you can either play SG sometimes or back him up at PG so when he comes out you won't miss a beat. Clippers get a young, talented SF in Jeff Green and an All-Star at the power forward position in Carlos Boozer, while also keeping the future in mind by getting two good future first round picks. The Clippers have deemed Griffin untouchable in real life now, so while it's unrealistic, it definitely makes sense.

My plan was to run the Heat like the Magic, let Dwight do his thing in the post while surrounding him with three point shooters. I have Jack, Anthony Morrow, Peja Stojakovic, and Eddie House. Plus I can use LeBron as the point.

Okay, I see. I just don't like the way the Magic are run though. I mean, you can't honestly win a championship purely playing the "toss it go Dwight and run out to the 3pt line in case he gets double teamed", because some nights 3's don't go in. If it were me, I would run like two different offenses in one. Do the thing I just mention and play inside-out, but also give it to LeBron at times, have him get into the lane and into the teeth of the defense, and make plays whether it's finding an open shooter, a big man down low, or scoring himself. I'm sure you will find a way to make it work though with my idea or without it, so good luck bud.

Charlotte would not let go of Crash for Kaman and a pick, no way. He's pretty much the face of our franchise and has been here since day one. It'd take a lot more than a Chris Kaman to get Wallace from the Bobcats.

But hey, it depends on if you care for realism or not, it is a game after all. I'm not saying don't do it, I'm only saying there's no way that would go down in real life.

Agreed with this guy. While it will by no means happen in real life, go ahead and do it if you want bro. It's your association.

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

Not a trade I want to make because it isn't fair to the CPU, haha. But, the Lakers offered me (Celtics) Lamar Odom and Matt Barnes for Jermaine O'Neal. Nothing else in the trade. haha, Jermaine has been on the bench for me all year with injuries but L.A. must see something in him. Not going through with it, but it gave me a good laugh when the offer came up.

Actually this is completely false lol. The Bobcats are shopping Wallace as we speak and rumor has it he can be had for pretty cheap. I think Kaman and a 1st rounder is more than fair.

Re: The Official Rate My Trade Thread

Phoenix Suns Get
Brandon Bass (PF)
2011 2nd Round Pick

Orlando Magic Get
Grant Hill (SF)
Channing Frye (PF/C)
2012 2nd round pick

I'm the Magic, and since losing Gortat, My middle cannot hold up with just 59 ovr Danny Orton. Plus Frye can shoot.

Grant Is a Solid Defender and is a good shooter. could use him in lots of situations.
Plus I want to re-unite my Favorite player and my favorite team.

Who gets better deal?
