Diop is a good young center. He has some nice ratings now and with B potential. But LeBron is struggling at PG, and I needed to get him some help. And I'm sure I'll find a good center in this draft, or if not that then in free agency.

Can't believe Rockets wanted to break up any part of their 11-1 team.

Bobby Jackson was maybe their third string PG. He has plenty of good ones, here he gets someone to start at PF(I think that's what he plans to do with Diop). Good trade for Rockets.

I dont care what happens you dont trade part of your rotation if youre 11-1 if its not a HUGE upgrade. Them throwing in the 1st round pick is just stupid.

I'd say right now the rockets first round draft pick has negative value.  What, being a guaranteed 4 year contract on a guy who will most likely be taken in the late 20's and blow.

Nets, I agree 100% with you.

Once, in the previous version of SSBA, I collected 3 first round picks for a draft. They were like 15, 16 and 20th overall.

I ended up paying these 3 guys like 8 million bucks first year, and up to like 15 mil 4th year, which is equal to a max contract. It sucked.

They did absolutly nothing for my team and I had a hell of a team getting rid of them all. I think one of them went on to average 10 and 5 for some guy, and the other 2 were IR players until Twan ruined the league.

Well I'll pick the right players, even if it's late first round. I have some drafting skills, you all remember Shannon Brown...

It's not really about drafting skills. I have some of those too. I guess it's about guys with A potential to have any hope of getting better. There are enough of tose guys to cover the first round

Rockets will have too many people on their team.  Since I don't want to cut someone to make it work and wind up having it be the wrong person, the trade won't be processed.  Specify who you want cut and it'll have to wait until the next sim.

He's also never posted that he accepts.  So it will have to wait until next sim.

Yeah, he PM'd me asking me should I post it. I answered saying yes I will, and it's still in my outbox so he hasn't read it yet. So we'll wait until the next sim.

I also cut Bostjan Nachbar to make it work. Thanx
