In MyPlayer mode, I'm about 40 games into the season with my SG on the Bulls. The other day the Bulls AI GM made a trade that literally made me drop my controller.

The Bulls traded their 1st-round draft picks of the next TWO seasons for...

Tracy McGrady!!??

Initially, I thought this was bats*** insane, but then I thought, well, the Bulls are presently #2 in the conference, #4 overall, and we're on a 15-game winning streak. Maybe the AI is figuring that the Bulls will continue to dominate, and finish near the top for the next two seasons. That would likely put their draft picks at the bottom of the order. So, their 1st-round pick wouldn't be worth as much as, say, Toronto's or Minnesota's, who would be much higher in the draft order. So maybe that's worth a Tracy McGrady. But he's only rated like a 71 overall. Is that really worth two 1st-round picks, regardless of where they are in the order?

I dunno. What do you think?
