Hey guys!
Let's use this thread to discuss potential trades for your MyNBA/MyLeague modes. With all the crazy roster situations around the league, I suspect we'll get some action in this thread this year.
Let's kick it off with a Ben Simmons proposal
I'll go first (I'm the Spurs):
SAC receives: Ben Simmons and Furkan Korkmaz
SAS receives: Marvin Bagley III
PHI receives: Buddy Hield, Thaddeus Young, 2022 SAC 1st rounder (Top 5 prot), 2024 SAC 1st (unprotected), 2025 1st CHI (Top 10 prot)
note: that Chicago pick is the Spurs from the DeRozan sign and trade.
Analysis
SAC gets Simmons (and he goes to California like he wants) in exchange for Hield, Bagley, and two picks. They don't give up Fox or Halliburton. Hield and Bagley both have a history of being unhappy in Sacramento. They also get Korkmaz, who (sorry Furkan) just seems like a King to me haha.
San Antonio gets Bagley (the #2 OVR pick in 2018) who is a 6-11" PF/C with upside, matches the young players' timeline, and can play next to Poeltl in some lineups. They give up the two assets they received in the DeRozan trade - the Bulls pick and Thad Young.
PHI gets Buddy Hield - a phenomenal 3 point shooter - and Thad Young for Simmons and Korkmaz. Hield will slot at the 2 next to Tyrese Maxey and provide elite spacing. Young can provide depth as a big, perhaps helping guard the elite bigs in the East in the postseason.
Philly also get some good draft equity - 1sts in three of the next 4 drafts. They can use those picks or Morey can use them in a package for another star.
Thoughts? Do I need to add something to the deal?
