Celtics trade Jarrett O'Meara Magic trade Griffin Gola Celtics accept. Title: Re: Magic / Celtics work a BUST Post by: PacersGM on June 16, 2008, 07:31:46 AM what kind of trade is this? magic trade gola for a FA sign he could have done on his own? :shock:
Title: Re: Magic / Celtics work a BUST Post by: CelticsGM on June 16, 2008, 07:38:31 AM Gola is signed by the Magic, they would have had to cut him to open a roster spot for O'Meara
And since i'm 100% sure somebody once again would have called it fishy if they drop someone that I pick up later on I asked them if they would trade him for a similar expiring. (gosh i even checked that Gola had been signed more than 60 days ago - 70 in fact) to make sure this isn't a "waiting for ..." trade again) Title: Re: Magic / Celtics work a BUST Post by: PacersGM on June 16, 2008, 08:12:54 AM Gola is signed by the Magic, they would have had to cut him to open a roster spot for O'Meara And since i'm 100% sure somebody once again would have called it fishy if they drop someone that I pick up later on I asked them if they would trade him for a similar expiring.

You should know by now that you can trade any player on his own (except players signed in FA).

Brilliant. Title: Re: Magic / Celtics work a BUST Post by: CelticsGM on June 16, 2008, 09:29:39 AM *lol*
yup I forgot he can be traded. Guess i've waited so long for trades to happen i'm overcautious. But what's the problem here? Did we exceed the "maximum number of Magic/Celtics deals in a season"? Is Griffin Gola a synonym for Clark Kent and here's a superhero flying under the radar? Does O'meara violate his drug probation and won't pass the physical? I'm wondering ... Title: Re: Magic / Celtics work a BUST Post by: PacersGM on June 16, 2008, 10:29:53 AM no problem with the trade. just wondering why a gm trades for a guy he can get for free. normally you trade a guy and get some value back.
here the magic get nothing in return. no money, pick, cap space just a guy they could have signed. even your anual trades for 2nd rounders have more reason than this one :D |
