Official - Is This Trade GOOD? Thread

How does it throw it out of whack?

Switching from team to team via resigning as the GM can make you team chemistry take a hit. Why go from position to position everytime you need/want to make a trade anyway.

If its important to you to make the Iverson deal happen, or a similar one just do a 3 team trade and swap 2nd rd picks w/ one of the teams involved.

So for my Bulls Association, I will not trade for Mayo for the sake of realism. I would like to see Memphis grow into a good team. Instead I will probably do a lower tier trade for JR Giddens. He is no Mayo, but I can develop him into a good player. Plus I might change Giddens' sig shot to Mayo's because I really like his because it's so fluid and really hard to block I noticed.

I'm playing as the Miami Heat and a lot of times at the start of franchises i like to make one deal just to get a little variation to this particular franchise. So I decided that I was gonna trade Marion since it wouldn't be that easy to retain him anyways after this year.

Miami Heat Trade
Shawn Marion
Marcus Banks

New York Knicks Trade
Danilo Gallinari
Stephon Marbury
David Lee

I promptly waived Marbury after the trade to continue starting Chalmers at point. I didn't want to bring in a cancer like Marbury to a pretty young team. I guess the Knicks wouldn't technically do this in real life right now since they just drafted Gallinari(and he is untapped potential), but I know they would love to rid themselves of Marbury while still having the ability to rid themselves of salary(Marion's expiring deal), or even re-sign him if they decide to. Throwing in Banks on my part was to get rid of his ugly as contract while evening things up money wise.

And David Lee is my prized piece. I don't have Zo on my roster cause I doubt he plays this year so having a good big man to go along with Haslem/Blount(while I still have his crappy contract)/Magliore is great. I expect to put Haslem and Lee on the floor together a lot and move the ball up the floor a little quicker with Wade/Chalmers/Beasley/Gallinari/Jones.

I dont see this trade happening in real life. Marbury can easily be released by the knicks making a trade practically useless. They just drafted Gallinari so there is no reason to trade him when they wont be competing anytime soon. David Lee is arguably one of their top players plus he is young. Also Marion has a one year contract and its unlikely he would resign with the Knicks. Basically, the knicks give up Gallinari and Lee for Marcus Banks. Not a great trade for the Knicks at all. If I had the choice to do this in 2k9 then i would do it, just not in real life.

Regardless, wouldn't any trade effect team chemistry? It's done. I'll let you know if it affects the other teams.

I'm currently playin with ma Nets Assoc.

Brook Lopez just got injured and is out for 4-6 weeks and Boone has been discouraged with his minutes even though i give him a good amount. So i put eventually got this offer and accepted it:

Detroit gets:
Boone
09 2nd round pick

Nets get:
Rodney Stuckey

Bobby Simmons has also been discouraged even after i raised his minutes. Eduardo Najera hasn't been playing too good for me so i made this trade:

Thunder get:
Simmons
Najera

Nets get:
Wilcox
Desmond Mason

This makes my rotation:
Pg-Devin Harris/Keyon Dooling/Rodney Stuckey
Sg-Vince Carter/CDR/Stuckey
SF-Thaddeus Young/Desmond Mason
PF-Yi Jianlian/Ryan Anderson
C-Wilcox/Brook Lopez(injured)/Sean Williams

I keep Keyon Dooling as back up because he's really enjoying playing with this team and i don't want to lower his minutes by much. But once Lopez gets back, Anderson and/or Mason might get a couple less minutes.

I'm doing a Bucks franchise and I'm looking to free up space. I suck with Richard Jefferson so I'm looking at trading him, do you think this trade is realistic?

Bucks
Richard Jefferson and Charlie Bell

For

Heat
Shawn Marion and Daquan Cook
