I love Avery, but Noel for Bradley is tempting.  The fact that Nerlens is on the last year of his rookie deal makes him less desirable, though.  If you could trade for him and then sign him to an extension right away  below the max that he is likely to get next off-season, I'd feel better about it.

I don't know if that's even possible within the rules of the CBA.  Somebody help me out on that one, please.

I mean, if you gave him 80 over 4 he'd probably think about it, but it also makes it much harder to go chase Blake Griffin next summer, as well as all the other free agent targets, so it's not really in Boston's best interest. If they got a deal done this offseason I believe they'd have until the end of October to extend him though.

Yes, the end of October is the extension deadline.  I'm just not sure if the ability to extend is transferable in a trade?  Don't know why it wouldn't be, but not sure?

The right to extend him transfers, it just makes no sense for Boston to do so.

I checked the trade checker, and just about any deal works for Noel: Rozier alone, or with Hunter, Young, etc. Noel only makes $4million next year. About half what Zeller will make.Part of that, of course, is old rookie contract vs new inflated money. Still, I can't figure the Zeller signing. A step backward.

Zeller's all about having a sizeable expiring contract on hand for trade-building purposes, and the fact that he can play some too when needed is gravy. I was hoping the contract would be even bigger so that you'd have to attach less in the way of current players to make a deal for a star work.

Thesixersense.com has an article today saying the team needs to trade Noel.

http://thesixersense.com/2016/08/15/the-philadelphia-76ers-need-to-get-rid-of-nerlens-noel/

The two trade options they offer:

#1 - Noel for Marcus Smart and Boston's 2017 1st (which Boston can't actually do since they can't trade their own 2017 1st)

#2 - Noel for Avery Bradley
I'm pretty into Nerlens Noel and I never do either of those deals. Is there anyone on this board that would do either of those?

Two really terrible trades.

I think I'd prefer either one of those to the one LarBrd33 is hinting at.

Fixed it for you.

I can't even keep up with what Larbrd is trying to say on this one.

LB is playing Tom Hanks in his imaginary world of The DaVinci Code where he thinks he's close to unlocking the mysteries of Noel's tweet.
"Close".  Heh.

It is what it is: 



I'll leave the "overreacting" in the "Nerlens Noel Twitter Overreaction Thread" to you guys.  I'm merely the messenger.

The Cavs/Wolves situation was interesting.   Everyone knew Wiggins was getting moved, but the 30 day rule prevented anyone from publicly talking about it.  It was Brian Windhorst who broke the news prior to the moratorium ending.

Quote
"The deal is done, but not done," Windhorst said. "The teams have agreed, but they can't say they have agreed and they can't agree because we are in this weird moratorium period. Because you can't trade Andrew Wiggins until the 23rd of this month."

Technically, there was some incentive for them to keep it on the down low:

Quote
Windorst says that in the period before the trade can become official, it is possible a team could swoop in and get Love with a superior offer.

This was less of a concern for the Cavs, though, since it was unfathomable anyone was going to outbid an offer of Andrew Wiggins for Kevin Love.

Here's an article about the purpose/effectiveness of the 30 day rule for rookie contracts:  http://midlevelexceptional.com/2014/08/26/exploring-the-30-day-rule/

It's still possible Noel is talking out of turn (once my video got to him he removed the twitter profile pic with the hidden message and replaced it with the cryptic movie still about "real men handles business"), but it's true that Jaylen Brown signed on July 28th and we're in the midst of his 30 day no-trade period.  So if the Celtics have any inclination to move him for Noel, in a package for Blake Griffin, Jimmy Butler, or whoever... it can't happen until later this month even if a deal has been agreed to hush-hush under the table. 

There's some cap-matching logic to waiting until after the contract is signed to deal away your rookie.   Once the 30 days are up, his salary can be included in the deal.

Oh wow, you did it! Awesome job! You must be so proud of yourself. It's probably really hard to photoshop Noel's original tweet and pass it on here as it was the original one. Between your posts here, the posts on the Sixers site we all know you frequent, and the photoshopping escapades your busy schedule is now completely booked.

Eddie, you know there are 15 members on this forum with more posts than me, right?  I've been here since like 2003 or something.   I average about 5 posts per day, which seems high until you realize that guys like Phosita average twice as much (10.3 posts per day) and guys like jpotter33 averages three times as much (16.6 posts per day). 

If it seems like I have more At-Bats than I do, it's because I exclusively hit Home Dingers.

Also, if you watch the video of my keen detective work, you'll see that I show exactly what I did step-by-step in real time:  https://youtu.be/4jSNLqAoQaE ... I literally download the image into my default OSX downloads folder, I literally tab over to that folder, open the image, and show that there's the hidden message.  It is what it is... So perhaps spare us the wild conspiracy theories.  It's blatantly obvious Noel is trying to make some kind of point via his twitter profile.   It's not a coincidence that he removed his Philly banner, changed his profile pic to a black image with a hidden message, tweeted about loving Boston, and then later changed his profile pic to a cryptic movie still after I exposed his hidden message.  Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Nerlens Noel doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he's doing.

Creeper!  :P That seems like a lot of posts per day, but I think it's somewhat skewed by the game threads, which many of us regulars will post in like 30+ times per game.

On a more serious note, I wish someone beyond LarBrd33 could verify this as true or not. This seems like overkill and way too convoluted for trolling, even for LarBrd33; however, I still don't quite trust him enough to fully believe that he didn't just go the extra mile with this troll attempt. Lol

Listen, whether you believe me or not... This notion that Nerlens Noel doesn’t know what he’s doing is just not true. He knows exactly what he’s doing.   You don't post your first tweet in a month about Boston, remove the 76ers images from your header and avatar, change the profile text to #BostonStrong and "CURRENT" 76er, make your profile pic a black box (with or without the hidden message)... and then a couple days later change your profile pic to a still from "Paid in Full" where the character is saying "Real men handles their business".   He's obviously making a statement and/or trolling us.

I think anyone who believes that Nerlens Noel isn’t doing what he’s doing on purpose doesn’t understand what we’re dealing with here. Okay?

Okay Marco Rubio.

Edit: LarBrd, why dont you analyze his banner pic too then? See if you can find a hidden message for us in there? and make a video on it too haha
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about

On a more serious note, I wish someone beyond LarBrd33 could verify this as true or not. This seems like overkill and way too convoluted for trolling, even for LarBrd33; however, I still don't quite trust him enough to fully believe that he didn't just go the extra mile with this troll attempt. Lol
Listen, whether you believe me or not... This notion that Nerlens Noel doesn’t know what he’s doing is just not true. He knows exactly what he’s doing.   You don't post your first tweet in a month about Boston, remove the 76ers images from your header and avatar, change the profile text to #BostonStrong and "CURRENT" 76er, make your profile pic a black box (with or without the hidden message)... and then a couple days later change your profile pic to a still from "Paid in Full" where the character is saying "Real men handles their business".   He's obviously making a statement and/or trolling us.

I think anyone who believes that Nerlens Noel isn’t doing what he’s doing on purpose doesn’t understand what we’re dealing with here. Okay?

Okay Marco Rubio.

Edit: LarBrd, why dont you analyze his banner pic too then? See if you can find a hidden message for us in there? and make a video on it too haha
I actually did.  I couldn't find anything in it.  It seems like a generic black banner.   But FWIW, a day after my video went viral, someone pointed out that the avatar was now a different size from the one I downloaded.  It's possible that Noel had replaced the black avatar with one that didn't have the hidden message.   Then a day later, he changed his avatar again to the one that has the still image from "Paid in Full".   Looks like Noel is having a lot of fun at our expense... or he's screaming out in silence and dropping blatant hints about what's going on behind the scenes.

Thesixersense.com has an article today saying the team needs to trade Noel.

http://thesixersense.com/2016/08/15/the-philadelphia-76ers-need-to-get-rid-of-nerlens-noel/

The two trade options they offer:

#1 - Noel for Marcus Smart and Boston's 2017 1st (which Boston can't actually do since they can't trade their own 2017 1st)

#2 - Noel for Avery Bradley
I'm pretty into Nerlens Noel and I never do either of those deals. Is there anyone on this board that would do either of those?

Two really terrible trades.

I think I'd prefer either one of those to the one LarBrd33 is hinting at.

Fixed it for you.

I can't even keep up with what Larbrd is trying to say on this one.

LB is playing Tom Hanks in his imaginary world of The DaVinci Code where he thinks he's close to unlocking the mysteries of Noel's tweet.
"Close".  Heh.

It is what it is: 



I'll leave the "overreacting" in the "Nerlens Noel Twitter Overreaction Thread" to you guys.  I'm merely the messenger.

Oh wow, you did it! Awesome job! You must be so proud of yourself. It's probably really hard to photoshop Noel's original tweet and pass it on here as it was the original one. Between your posts here, the posts on the Sixers site we all know you frequent, and the photoshopping escapades your busy schedule is now completely booked.
Eddie, you know there are 15 members on this forum with more posts than me, right?  I've been here since like 2003 or something.   I average about 5 posts per day, which seems high until you realize that guys like Phosita average twice as much (10.3 posts per day) and guys like jpotter33 averages three times as much (16.6 posts per day). 

If it seems like I have more At-Bats than I do, it's because I exclusively hit Home Dingers.

Also, if you watch the video of my keen detective work, you'll see that I show exactly what I did step-by-step in real time:  https://youtu.be/4jSNLqAoQaE ... I literally download the image into my default OSX downloads folder, I literally tab over to that folder, open the image, and show that there's the hidden message.  It is what it is... So perhaps spare us the wild conspiracy theories.  It's blatantly obvious Noel is trying to make some kind of point via his twitter profile.   It's not a coincidence that he removed his Philly banner, changed his profile pic to a black image with a hidden message, tweeted about loving Boston, and then later changed his profile pic to a cryptic movie still after I exposed his hidden message.  Let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Nerlens Noel doesn’t know what he’s doing. He knows exactly what he's doing.

whatever the case may be, i hope we dont actually trade Jaylen for him.
I could very well see the Hawks... starting Taurean Prince at the 3, who is already better than Crowder, imo.

you vs. the guy she tells you not to worry about
