This cannot be processed until after RFA (Brad Miller is an RFA). So you guys would need to re-work this to not include #34 or a future pick.

Um... is this trade still happening after RFA? I'm going to need both teams to re-accept.

This guy's trades get mocked but trades to build title teams are met with silence. Trying to decide if that's cowardice or ignorance. It probably depends.

Yeah I used to get bothered that no one commented on my trades, but then I realized it's because they weren't mockable.

Bitch about tanking, but don't compliment the opposite. Human, all too human.

For the record, I haven't bitched about it, but some have. In fact, I'll go on record as planning on tanking in spectacular fashion, just not yet, and now how you think. I can't wait for those conversations.

Just noticed the OP was updated. Locking thread. I wasn't so much mocking this trade. Personally, I think there was 1 bad trade made by RB15, his first trade. It blew everyone's mind that Posey was moved for diddly, but, as he will learn, understanding value of players in this league takes time. Bad trades happen, especially as a new GM. I didn't think this one was horrible though. This actually seemed like a decent trade, value-wise. Helped both squads.

Judging by the lack of parity in the league, I think many, many people do not understand the value of players.

I also think there is a grave issue when title contenders don't know how to set a DC.

Well that + people selling talent off to teams (raises hand as I've done this), or these crazy flukey signings of people like Damon Stoudamire getting signed for a <expletive deleted>' vet min (I had an offer of 3.45 mil out there for him... and for some reason he was signed on the vet min before he could've taken my offer (according to transaction list))... but it's getting better; the parity is getting back to where it should be.

I lost some free agent bids, too. Manifold problem, but the truth is it is not new guys destroying the world by sending talent to the Bulls and Suns. Trading Posey to me would have little effect on the title race, for instance. It takes a village.
