Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: RaptorsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:21:34 PM Raptors Trade:
PG Alvin Williams 5th Pick 14th Pick 25th Pick Spurs Trade: PG Sam Cassell 6th Pick 34th Pick 49th Pick Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: SpursGM-old on March 20, 2005, 05:28:16 PM Spurs agree.
We trade Cassell for Ellis and end up with 5 draft picks between 14 and 25 to add depth to my roster. Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: CavsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:31:09 PM Good deal. Raptors trade down in picks for a big improvement at PG. Spurs move up a lot with their picks.
Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: HawksGM on March 20, 2005, 05:31:19 PM interesting deal, the Raps are a big time contender now in the east....good deal for the Spurs too, get a good big to go w/Manu and a lot of picks to jump start the rebuilding...
Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: RaptorsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:31:59 PM As you just heard, Spurs are taking Ellis, so I still have a shot at Mercer or Griffin.
Cassell is an All-Star. I lose 2 firsts, and gain 2 seconds, which does nothing for my team, but I now have a starting lineup of: Mihm Boozer Finley Carter Cassell With Ostertag and the number 6 pick as my two bench players. Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: NetsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:32:27 PM Well, I'm not sure Ellis would be my target at pg. I'm not as in love with him as some are.
IMO this trade will depend on who's available at 14. Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: CavsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:36:42 PM Holy crap, that is a lot of firsts that the Spurs have now.
Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: RaptorsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:38:03 PM Yeah, the Spurs own this draft.
I think guys like Kyle Hobson will be available with the 14th pick. But IMO Cassell and Griffin > Ellis, Hobson and the 25th pick Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: NetsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:38:57 PM it depends. I don't think Cassell did much for the spurs since they're not exactly contending now. So it made sense to move him.
Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: RaptorsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:39:51 PM Well, I think I have more options than the Wolves did last year, and Cassell gave them 10 apg.
He could get 12 with me. Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: SpursGM-old on March 20, 2005, 05:46:43 PM Only difference between Hobson and Griffin is thier potential.
Also I should be able to add players like Litwack, Cunningham, Strickland, Meyers, Van Exel. Having the 14, 18, 21, 24 & 25 picks are going to be key to developing my team. I have 4 years to evaluate 6 rookies. Also I have some solid role players already. I am betting a lot on this draft.

Right, Hobson and Griffin are basically the same ratings-wise, other than potential. It's tough relying on a player's potential when choosing who to draft. He could explode through the roof or improve barely at all. Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: RaptorsGM on March 20, 2005, 05:58:34 PM Well, I still love this trade for me. I think I'm the team to beat now.
One of the best F/C's in the game with likely Mihm, Boozer, Ostertag and one of Ferry or Griffin. And a B/C of Finley, Carter and Cassell with Banks and Weslch first off the bench. And I still have the MLE to use. Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: HornetsGM on March 20, 2005, 06:12:22 PM It would be a mistake to take Ellis over Griffin IMO. I think that it's a pretty tough pick to take Ferry over Griffin...
Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: RaptorsGM on March 20, 2005, 06:18:25 PM I'd take either or at this stage. And they would probably be traded too.
Like I'm trying to trade the 6th pick. Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: NetsGM on March 20, 2005, 06:34:56 PM I'd take Ferry over either Ellis or Griffin. I think Griffin vs. Ellis is pretty even, depending on team needs.
Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: RaptorsGM on March 20, 2005, 07:28:57 PM Hey, if any of you want one of em, talk to me :)
Title: Raptors/Spurs Complete Trade - processed Post by: PacersGM on March 21, 2005, 05:02:59 AM Quote from: RaptorsGM Hey, if any of you want one of em, talk to me :) so now you have the 6 th pick :D i am interested in the pick. i think you have a good starting line up now. i am not sure if there is a need i can give you except depth.
