agree

I will cut Frank Williams to make it work.

Hey, what can I say.

Trade another NICE young prospect in Deng for a 2 time all star, best PG in the League.

I think it's a nice deal for both teams...the D on the Hornet squad is crazy....it's been a big deadline too, a lot of good players moving

I do this partially for cap reasons, but I really like Deng, and Cassell is only a year off of all-league 3rd team. Christie was a very nice added bonus.

Davis was the face of my franchise, but his turns per game were a little out of control. He was my first option on offense, on a pretty lackluster offensive team, so I think his numbers might be a bit inflated (which is what I thought about Hughes too.)

Overall, I don't think it's a terrific trade for me. Davis is probably the best pg in the game at this point.
However, I am at the point where I need to trade talent for depth (especially after trading most of draft picks for Marion.)

For me, Chrisite and Cassell were not going to be resigned. Neither is Wilcox. So it's Deng and Cap Space for Davis.

Davis, with the A+ defense and A- handling will be great. So will be the B potential, meaning at 25 years old, he's only going to get better.

And I will still have enough for a max contract if Gooden won't resign.

Raptors have to get some sort of prize for making the most trades.

14 and counting. :)

I'm drastically working on another before I have to leave.

I think that's a bit of a stretch.  Top 3 for sure though

Who is the best then? No other's have A+ defense, A- handling. And those, for me, are the 2 most important stats.

Depends on what type of ballhandling you're looking for.

If he has 4.4 turnovers, that tells me 2 things.
1) Great at creating for others
2) bad at taking care of the ball

it all depends if you're asking him to initiate the offense.

I'm not going to make a list though.  At least not that I want public.

It's arguable. The rookie, Mercer, is right up there with Davis. I'm scared to see what his ratings will be like in another year, with his B potential. Jason Williams is damn good, too. Check out his A/TO ratio. It's much better.

That's fair, 4.4 is alot, but I think that will go down on my team. Every player on my team is capable of scoring, meaning they should be looking for the ball, ready to score.

Will he be your first option?

Nope, 2nd for now. His offensive ratings aren't enough to merit a first option.

Boozer is a clear cut first.

I think I'm up there with total trades. Not as much as you though, that's for sure. I'll count now.

11. Not bad.

:rrofl:  @ Oliver Miller's nickname Cavs


BTW, he still holds my team record for points in a game  :lol:

Hey he's got bulk you can't argue with that. I feel bad for any player that takes a charge with him driving down the lane.

Jason kidd has A and A...but the age and scoring puts Baron above him

Mason Mercer gives Baron some competition

so does bibby...but he's playin on a lottery team so that doesn't count :)

Bibby and Mercer are both up there, but are both A-, A-, whereas Davis is A-, A+.

Yeah, Baron is undoughtably the better distributer, but Mercer is way a way better scorer (but then again, a PG doesn't have to score).  I also would think Mercer isn't done improving.  The funny thing is that Mercer is averaging 0.5 BPG and hes 5'7'  :)

Mercer isn't done improving, but neither is Davis, as both have B potential.

Mercer is the better scorer, true, and maybe that's what you need for your team, making him a perfect fit. But I needed someone to defend, becase Ellis at SG is a defensive liability.

Are you going to play Baron 40 MPG like the Hornets did?

I'm going to play Baron how ever long the computer plays him :)

He is my starting PG, and that is the only place where he appears in my depth chart.

Yeah but most people only use one of the 3 depth chart  slots for starters (starter/bench/bench), but Hornets played Baron for the 1rst 2 (Baron/Baron/bench).

Nope, not going to do that. Really like Lovelette, want to get him some time.

Nah, I played it as Baron / Shammond Williams / Baron

The reason he got so much pt is that I was playing a slow pace, so he and hughes didn't get tired.

I'm trying a fast pace. Should cut into the mins and TOs for Baron.

Ok, got ya
