I'll unaccept.

But you guys are killing me. Candice has value and will be better next year. Hope someone sends him a better rookie and 70 million dollars of expiring contract, only deal that would be better. I'm out of the trade market for a while. If i couldn't trade him I was probably going to decline Looney's contract anyway.

[LazyTitanSmash]

We both know Looney is better. But Parker will get better for the next few years. Looney is a rental that Cody will probably decline.

As someone with no skin in this on top of someone that isn't a huge fan of Parker, I can still say this deal is ... fine. Definitely don't blame GMs for choosing to take a shot on a 25 y/o blue, even sitting at that large contract. If nothing else, she's salary matching power in a future deal when Campbell is ready. Obviously, yes, Looney is significantly better, but there are almost 0 trades between players that are exactly as talented as the other. You're generally trading talent for potential and hoping they slowly build or you can trade them again quickly.

Plus, this is different than a steward situation where it has to go through numerous channels. If both of the GMs think it's a good deal for you, then that's all that matters, ultimately.

You just gotta handle a few slime memes after bad ones for a few days ha. Or years in Doug's case

Second thing I thought of was a Nickelodeon reference.
I have been around long enough to see some real slime go down.
Used to be one of the main things to tune in for.
And I know there is a big difference in a way people are valuing the players right now, but my first thought was that
nobody batted an eye at Banchero for Henry Widener who was drafted at #17.
I know, I know, younger, different potentials, but not a hands down dominant advantage over Parker as an asset.
But I also have no skin.

There's obviously nuance between Widener and Parker as assets, such as one being cheaper for longer so being easier to use as a trade chip, but in general you're not wrong. However, in the case of Banchero, right, no one really questioned it (except Doug). Probably because folks trust my judgment and understand that I have a plan in place if I'm making certain moves. For the folks still adjusting, learning, or simply don't engage a lot, they'll probably get more blow back on perceived "bad" deals cause some folks will think theyre being taken advantage of. But we gotta let the kids fall outta a few trees too. I just wrap back around to what I originally said: If both parties are happy with it, then all everyone else can do is sit back and see if the plan that led to a trade works.

As acting commissioner, I will say that I have more nuanced thoughts on whether this is a good or bad trade that nobody asked for, so I'm not going to give them here. But I will say it's a perfectly legal trade that I have no issue processing. You guys doing it or not?

[LazyTitanSmash]

Weeks for He Hor - I’ve literally done this trade in reverse.

Looking back I made a lot out of how others viewed my deals instead of how I viewed my deals... [but] if people don’t like it? Cool. Great.

I'll see my grumpy ass out of this thread. Sorry everybody

After much consideration Hawks accept

Henry Widener is better at his position than Parker at hers. He actually has A attributes that are in the 90s. Parker doesn't. Henry is cheap, Parker is expensive. And despite the lies that lazy titan keeps spewing parker is not getting much better. She's not bad but she's expensive for what she is which is an average player. Lazy out here trying to trade bad contracts with no actual assets because this is what he does. He's the only GM in the league looking to hoard his players while still trying to get win now players. I don't respect him at all and while the others won't say it's a trash trade. I will, the trade was trash.

Dude I offered you Caitlin Clark and Lester Quinones for Johnny Davis.

Pretty sure that's me trying to cash in my rookies.

But I did not offer purple pots rookies, so your mad?

Pretty sure I'm not the first GM you've been mad at. @AngryBanana @drkavarga

Lol again, you making things up. I was mad you didn't offer a purple potential? Go ask the blazers and Timberwolves how hard I've been trying to trade with them to get better. Ask the Lakers how long ago I inquired about Paulo. I was never trading Johnny because the goal was always to have the best team I can and see what happens. But I did attempt to make you understand how crap your offer was for johnny. Of course you take that as me wanting one of your purples.

[Black Superman]

As per usual. You don't listen nor pay attention @LazyTitanSmash .

[drkavarga]

I'm just here for the comments.

[IamQuailman]

As a delegate from the Pistons, I'm just here to say I'm not worried about the Mavs still

[Black Superman]

@IamQuailman lol. If only he had worked out a deal to get Johnny. He'd be kicking yo a$$ in the playoffs. We saw how Gary and Trey Murphy did you... But the Mavs can't stay out of their own way.
