Re: Lucky17's Yahoo! FBB H2H League: 2012 Preseason: Constitution Up!

I'm bored - you're bored - let's make a deal! Need a PG? Come shoot me an offer!

Jamal Crawford
Mo Williams
Kyle Lowry
Sonny Weems
Paul Millsap
Zach Randolph
Daniel Orton
Nikola Pekovic
Jodie Meeks
DeMar DeRozan
Jason Thompson
Devin Harris
Boris Diaw
Yao Ming
Thaddeus Young
Wilson Chandler
George Hill
Jordan Williams

You - yes, you! - can put future Hall of Famer Yao Ming on your squad!

[Gainesville Celtic]

Trade to announce - we've both confirmed with the commish but he isn't here it seems.

Rusted Rims trade:

Elton Brand
Drew Gooden
Randy Foye

Gainesville Celtic trade:

Tyrus Thomas
Corey Brewer
GC's 1st rd pick.

I definitely am worse off this year but I feel much better about my squad's future.  I feel like I sold high on Brand but I'm not sure if it was quite as high as it could've been. 

I'm higher on Gooden than most it sounds... he's a knucklehead, but a solid 12/8 guy.

I got tired of waiting on Thomas -- which mean's he'll be All-NBA this year.

I was shocked when I realized Gooden's still just 30.  That made the deal a little tougher, but I think there's a decent chance he gets amnestied by the Bucks (there's def some competition though) and winds up a backup somewhere.  But he definitely is much better by numbers than reputation.

At the same time, I've been wrong plenty of times, and I hope this turns into a win-win for both of you.  Also, my assessment of this trade has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I made a trade offer on Brand and didn't get a counter-offer.

Thought about a counteroffer but your guys are mostly either too good for me to expect to be able to pry them away for a price I'd be willing to pay, or role players/prospects I'm not too interested in. 

I also really wanted another 1st and I don't think yours will be very good with that roster.

[Gainesville Celtic]

Here's my updated roster...

Al Jefferson
Andrei Kirilenko
C.J. Miles
Chuck Hayes
Daniel Gibson
Darrell Arthur
Dorell Wright
Drew Gooden
Elton Brand
Greivis Vasquez
Jason Richardson
Kenyon Martin
Kirk Hinrich
Matt Bonner
Mike Miller
Randy Foye
Russell Westbrook

Like i said, I'm unlikely to move Jefferson or Westbrook unless it's for a top-10 guy.

[Kwhit10]

Mike Conley
Derek Fisher
Gary Neal
Aaron Brooks
Jordan Crawford
Kevin Martin
Brandan Wright
Chase Budinger
Trevor Booker
Chris Bosh
Al Harrington
Jonas Jerebko
Kendrick Perkins
Linas Kleiza
Channing Frye
Cole Aldrich
Jan Vesely
Kawhi Leonard
Nolan Smith
Bojan Bogdanovic

Not sure what I'm looking for, but if anything interests you I'm willing to trade players/picks both coming or going if need be.

[barefacedmonk]

Here is my roster if anybody wants to talk trade:

Jose Juan Barea
Michael Beasley
Rodrigue Beaubois

Tim Duncan
Wayne Ellington
T.J. Ford
LeBron James
Joe Johnson
Courtney Lee
Lamar Odom
Zaza Pachulia
Mickael Pietrus
Shawne Williams
Kyrie Irving
Donatas Motiejunas

Except those 3, everybody else is on the block..including my picks.

Mkogav is a busy man.

Like this one for CK.  I'm sure it comes down to team needs, though.

Yeah, I needed a center-eligible player so I got a little older with Scola, getting a few more stats. MK took a flier on Williams regaining his fantasy stature (while being 2 years younger) on a team where he can get easy assists with Griffin/Jordan finishing at the hoop.

I'm more upset to lose Pekovic after sitting on him for a year. I think he's gonna eventually blossom into fantasy gold with the T-Wolves. If Webster can contribute/stay healthy that'll be a nice bonus for me.

I needed a PG and Williams fit the bill. He'll help me in 3s and assists.

I hate to see Scola go. He is an 18/8 guy and a young 31 b/c he only has ~350 games under his belt. Webster produces when healthy.

I really like Pekovic. I think he will be pretty good, but it may take a while b/c the Wolves roster is stuffed with players.

We will see how is goes. Hopefully, we will both make out here.

another trade to report:

Toine's Boys trade Rudy Fernandez, Eric Maynor, and TB's 2nd rounder to Gainsville Celtics for Kirk Hinrich and GS's 2nd rounder.

Hm, solid deal. Someone is going to win this one hands down. Hinrich has been the player to own, but GC is either betting Fernandez will win the starting SG job in Dallas or Teague will become the starting point guard in Atlanta. With nary a training camp who's to say he's wrong?

Also, worth pointing out that all of this recent flurry of trade activity is pending Lucky's approval.

(Or are we on league vote these days?)

Thanks for your thoughts, I agree that this trade can go either way, and it's hard to know without a training camp. Of course, all trades are pending Lucky's approval, which is why this time I tried to carefully word it as a "trade to report" instead of trade to announce. I'm like an ESPN insider here
