not at all. Bucks just traded for Jefferson and I highly doubt they will get rid of him.

I am Bulls Association and am not happy with any of my 2 guards.

Gordon-too short, can't play defense. Yes he can score, that's about it
Hinrich-can do everything good, nothing great. Lack of Size
Sefolosha-Good size, decent prospect. Just not that into him
Hughes-His contract kills him. Enough said.

I am thinking of trading for Nick Young.

Sefolosha and a future 1st Rounder for Nick Young straight up.

Pretty simple deal. Fair or no? Realistic or no?

Can you see any other options to free up cap space? Perhaps Redd for Sczerbiak of the Cavs or Redd for Marion?

I don't see this happening. Redd is the heart and soul of the Bucks and he won't get traded. I'm sorry to tell you that you chose a bad team to try and free cap space...

--------------------------------------------------------------

In my OKC association, I'm deep into the fourth season woth a stellar team, (Westbrook 86, Durant 95, James 99, Boozer 91 and a 3rd year regen rated 87), the thing is Booz isn't giving me the kind of results I expected, I grabbed him in the first offseason, and put decent numbers (17 PPG and 8 RPG in almost 40 MPG, nothing great...), but since he has decreased his numbers year after year (specially after I grabbed James in the 2010 FA market). Besides he's a lockeroom cancer (only player with low morale) and demands more minutes (he averages 38 MPG, and I've got him in 45 in rotation)
In the other hand Amar'e Stoudemire was traded before his option to the Hawks and he opted out, becoming a FA last offseason, he signed for the Knicks (4 years long), and he's really upset, they have him restricted to less than 30 MPG and he wants to play more.

This has me thinking of pulling a trade for him, in the offseason, before the draft. Booz has still 3 years left in his contract. I have 3 first round picks (1 acquired last year and 1 from a decent trade), 1 is sure lottery. I'm thinking Boozer + 1st rd. pick (not lottery) for Amare. The salaries add up, and they might say yes (Amare is fed up, like -8 to his rating), if not I can try for the lottery pick.

What do you guys think??

Houston gets:
Kirk Hinrich

Chicago gets:
Rafer Alston
Steve Francis
Von Wafer

I'm playing as Houston and Chicago decided to put Kirk Hinrich on the block ahead of Ben Gordon and Larry Hughes.

I've started 7-0 and have beaten the Celtics, Lakers, Blazers and Mavs in this run. Hinrich ais currently a shooting guard but I'd edit that to make him a point guard as his primary position.

But I checked the ratings and Rafer has a better 3 point shooting rating and his ball handling rating is 99 while Kirk Hinrich's ball handling rating is only 89. Rafer is quicker and the passing rating in the same.

Rafer is also shooting 53% from downtown while Hinrich is shooting 47% from downtown.

I know it looks an unfair trade in real life but I'm questioning doing it as I think Rafer is playing well with Tmac, Artest and Yao in the team. I have no worries about losing Francis and Wafer as Brooks and Head are ahead of them in the rotation.

Should I do the trade or keep Rafer around?

I dont like this trade for Chicago if you're trying to be fair, Chicago may be trying to dump Hinrich in the future, but this offer is crappy bro, They'd wait.

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.

hahahahhahahahaha, do you watch the NBA? Detroit loves Stuckey, he's a great player, they traded billups for iverson's expiring contract, Stuckey is their PG of the future.

And why would the Thunder take on Simmons HORRIBLE contract?

Both of these trades are great for YOU on 2k, but would never happen.

I can see this trade happening, if the bucks really sucked to begin the season. They would have to trade redd as well for an expiring, and build through the draft. I like a team with Mbah moute, Bogut, CV, Joe Alexander, Sessions, and Cook. Good young players.

Both Jefferson and Bell were publically unhappy being in Milwaukee in the past. Charlie was signed by Miami before the Bucks Matched it.

Very Realistic Trade.

This trade is somewhat fair, but I cannot see it happening since it's a blah trade, neither team is shoring up any weaknesses at all. I just have to ask, The bulls have a ton of guards, and You want to make a trade for another one? you would still have a logjam @ guard! lol, but yeah overall I think it's fair.

That's something that is also stopping me from making the trade, the other offers on the table range from okay to "you must be stupid if you don't take that".

Because the Clippers are offering Marcu Camby and the Jazz are offering Memhet Okur, which are okay. But the Grizzlies are offering a 1st round draft pick for Hinrich.

That isn't realistic considering they already have Conley, Lowry, Critt and OJ, not to mention Jaric aswell.

But for some reason, I expect the Bulls to take either the Clippers or Jazz offers because of their need of a center, even though they've got Joakim Noah.
