NBA 2K18 - Trade Discussion Thread

[BobbyColtrane]

Use this thread to discuss proposed My League/My GM trades.

Here is last year's for reference.

I'll go first. I despise LaMarcus Aldridge and want him off my Spurs ASAP.

He has a player option that he will probably exercise at the end of this year, making him a semi-expiring contract.

Thoughts on trading him, Dejounte Murray and a 1st to Sacramento for George Hill once new contracts can be traded in December?

Sacramento gets a guard prospect and a pick. Honestly, I have no idea why they would want to pay George Hill $20mm per year for a team that won't sniff the playoffs.

Fair or unfair?

Very fair. I get why the Kings signed Hill (veteran mentor) but they way overpaid, IMO. Hill is worth 12-15M a year in my view, not 20M.

I think the Spurs are offering a bit too much here -- Murray is a good prospect. I think if you just toss Aldridge+that 1st (unprotected of course) and ask for Hill back, it'll be just fine for everyone.

If you're not enamored with Murray, toss him in there as a sweetener, but I quite like him.

Re: NBA 2K18 - Trade Discussion Thread

thanks man!

hmmmmm.....i like Murray but I feel like I gotta give to get. Maybe take the pick out and leave Murray. I don't know, just spitballing here.

Re: NBA 2K18 - Trade Discussion Thread

I'm the Trail Blazers, what do you think about this trade:

Phoenix get Turner and a 1st 2018 unprotected pick by Portland.
Knicks get Aminu, T.J. Warren and a 2nd 2020 pick.
Trail Blazers get Melo and Dotson.

Phoenix in rebuilding mode are willing for me to get a big contract and a Draft prospect in exchange of Warren that at the end of the year needs to be payed.
Knicks get two underpaid assets with more CAP space for the 2018 Free Agency and TB get a "star" for the playoffs' race.

Looks fine to me. I saw earlier in the week that Melo would be open to Portland if Houston doesnt work out in real life.

I say yes on that one. Solid trade all around - Knicks would take that in a heartbeat IRL I think.

Eh.. Giving up way too much. Keep Murrary and send them Aldridge for Hill straight up.


EDIT : In MyLEAGUE , The Sixers traded Jahlil Okafor for Mike Conley straight up. No picks included. I was shocked.. Even had the trade difficulty bumped up.

AI team logic is still stupid and always will be. You just can't program the amount of variables into it.

This is why I give myself the power to veto CPU trades. I'm too lazy to control all 30 teams, so this gives me some power to get rid of bad trades.

No question about it. However, I'm pretending it's a good move on both ends because.

Sixers - Get a talented PG, a vet to teach Fultz
Memphis - Clear cap space.

That's what I like to pretend. I'll start another MyLeague perhaps and turn on the ability to veto trades.

Re: NBA 2K18 - Trade Discussion Thread

I haven't decided who I am running my gm with, but if I could figure out how to do the following it will help me.

Cousins for Nets 1st, Thompson and either JR or Shump. I would like to keep Crowder and Love when I tested this the Nets pick to start with only had 3* value.

How to get rid of Deng in a sim way?

I honestly don't think the Cavs would part with that Nets 1st in real life for one year of Cousins.

There's no way New Orleans would trade Boogie to start the season. If the AD/Boogie experiment goes a few months and ends up being a complete disaster, plus Boogie let's in be known then he's not re-signing, then they probably would consider a deal like that (depending on how bad the Nets are at the time).

For the Cavs it would all come down to one thing which is does the move help keep LeBron. If they think it would, then I think they take a chance on Boogie. If it doesn't then I think they keep the pick.

That trade is horrible for PHX. No way they are taking on Turners contract.

Your argument about having to pay Warren makes no sense as they will just be paying Turner 18 mill a year anyway, never mind the fact Warren is better and younger.

Re: NBA 2K18 - Trade Discussion Thread

Hey guys I'm the Hawks and I've tried everything to get Ben Simmons can anyone help me out? He's probably my favorite player. I only play my gm, Ive tired bumping down trade difficult to zero still can't get him.
