The Official Rate My Trade Thread

Here is the only problem I see:

Gilbert's contract is so bad, it almost sinks a franchise single-handedly.

The Jazz deal isn't terrible. But imagining that Gilbert and Jerry could co-exist is hard to do.

What about dealing him to the Cavs for Antawn and Parker/Gibson?

That one kind of makes sense. Or to LAC for Baron & someone?

Or maybe throw in a 1?

You should probably try to bail out the team you are doing the deal with on some level-- take on really bad contracts, give them a couple 1's or a 1 and a 2, etc.

I would start by looking around the league for really bad contracts (high $, terrible players) that don't expire for 2-3 years.

Gilbert is toxic. A good player, but toxic.

Needed a starting SF that could hit a open 3 when Jennings or DeRozan penetrate because Maggette can't shoot 3s so I struck a deal with the Suns.

Bucks (Me) Get:
Josh Childress
Mickael Pietris

Suns Get:
Corey Maggette
Ersan Ilyasova

My Roster
PG- Jennings averaging 27 PPG, Keyon Dooling, Boykins
SG-Demar Derozan, Michael Redd, Mickael Pietris
SF-Josh Childress, Mickael Pietris, Carlos Delfino
PF-Bargnani, Drew Gooden, Hassan Whiteside
C-Marcus Camby, Gooden, Hassan Whiteside

Toxic? As in what? Bad for team chemistry? This isn't the real NBA. And you very well know that Jerry Sloan will retire a year or two after in this game.

For the OP, if you're affected by this, just do the Pacers one.

Well, you have him for the next four years at 20 mil, meaning he will be the highest paid player on your team for four years. The salary cap is 58 mil. He is 28 and declining. And a team can't win with him as the highest paid player.

That's pretty toxic.

Maybe you're right. I just know...

Spoiler Alert


with the living rosters, Paul George turns out to be a nice little player.

Look, I'm only one opinion (GM). I just wouldn't acquire GA unless he got me salary cap relief a year early. I don't think he is a bad player, but his skills/age/contract are a bad combination.
