    The crazy trades thread...

    I *really* recommend everyone use CTRE's idea to avoid trades occuring (it's a pain, but not that hard to do)

    Anyway, while I wait for the patch, I have been starting a few franchises and just having fun...

    Used the Pacers...and after 2 weeks...this offer came through from San Antonio:

    The San Antonio Spurs offer you forward Tim Duncan for forward Ron Artest.

    Yeah, that's realistic

    Apart from the obvious, that trade makes SFA sense anyway. Like they'd give up mr MVP for Ronny...apart from TD being much better, they already have a defensive wing man in Bowen.

    The only logic I can see is TD is rated 99...Ron is 90...and the game must just trade "within 10" ratings points.

    As I said, no idea why anyone wants crap like that in the game...and use CTRE's idea to avoid it.

    What other trades have you seen? The previous worst that I saw was Shaq for Pierce and RLF.

    Dwayne Wade and a 1st rounder for KG. So now the Heat have the twin towers lol. But it was just in a sim i did, i havent started an association yet because im still hoping for a t.o. patch

    Is it just me, because in every sim i did the Pacers got rid of Reggie Miller. This game really wants him off the Pacers.

            What is CTRE's method?
            "It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace

                This trade would never go through in real life unless Minnesota had a bad losing record and things weren't working right. And theres no way youre gonna earn a Lebron quality first rounder from a team with Garnett and Shaq, wholl probably own the entire Eastern Conference.

                            It's not that bad. Just scan every now and then and correct any really bad trades. It only takes a few seconds to scan, and a minute or two to correct.

                            A month into my 56 game season, I've only had to correct one.
