Magic-Knicks - cancelled

[MagicGM]

Ok, so from the KnicksGM, this is what I have gathered:

THey both agreed to the trade, but then the magic decided that he wanted the change it. Knicks would not agree to the changes, yet almost a week later the Magic posted the trade again, and the Knicks had not agreed again, assuming the trade was over. The KnicksGM does not want to do the trade anymore.

lol. I was just asking him if he wanted to change it. not even a single reply to that. he even told me I post it.

[MagicGM]

bods, you can just check my PM. I have nothing to be ashamed of. Both parties agreed upon it.

I was just asking whether he'd like me to add Darius. Whats wrong with asking? he didn't even give a reply to that, And that was already after I post it.

[MagicGM]

Yeah, um...this forum isn't for negotiationg or offers.  This forum is for completed trades, ones that have been agreed upon.  There really should never be a "decline".  Obviously MagicGM thought an agreement was in place.  What happened?

not really haha. this happened in the past with the hornets and me. but this time I made sure.

[MagicGM]

If I am wrong, I am sorry. But wasnt there some input as a reaction to this trade before it was agreed upon? Am I right? If so, I think that has more to do with the Knicks declining.

could be. I sent knicks the link of this thread. when I sent him whether he'd like darius, the message (with the link of the thread in it), was already in my sentbox.

[MagicGM]

edit: when I sent him that if he'd like darius, JazzGM's comment was already posted.

[CelticsGM]

Guys, this post here is just to break the string of seven (7 !!!) consecutive Magic posts

That must be some sort of record, right there with Wilt's 100 and Shaq missing a FT in like 1527 consecutive games.

Still, congratulations Magic, you worked the time zones to perfection here ...
 

[MagicGM]

lol actually no. haha

[MavsGM]

Stop trying to rob the newbie.

[MavsGM]

okay. ridiculous. bods you can check my PM.

he accepted the trade.. this is what he wrote:

sorry about not replying before i was still trying to figure out the free agent stuff and wasn't really sure what was going on. I'll accept the trade that you just sent

I was thinking of
Diddle
2016 1st

for

Arroyo
Josh
Brown
and 2 2014 1st.

Im not sure really what to do to trade so you'll have to tell me what to do to made the trade go through.
Knicks

See he didn't even know what he was doing at that time.

[HornetsGM]

It seems pretty clear that he accepted the offer in the PM, but the problem is that he might not have known our rules here. Most leagues say that a trade is only final if it's posted and accepted in the 'completed trades' thread...

[RaptorsGM]

I guess it's up to Bods now.

[MagicGM]

actually, I think its a nice deal for him. Diddle is already 28. By the time his team peaks, Diddle will be worthless. This deal fulfills his 2-year plan. And Diddle's contract takes at least 1/5 of his cap.

it is already beyond my understanding why he took on a bad contract  

[NetsGM]

Deal cancelled.

Reason:
True, Magic made an offer.  Then Knicks accepted.  But after that acceptance, Magic made this pm:

what do you think of agrobast instead of brown(you'll have to add someone like nguyen to make it work cap-wise)? coz I'll need a pg and Darius is better and I gurantee you that.

Now, this is clearly not MagicGM saying "if you want Darius instead, take him, I'll agree to that too".  MagicGM is offering Darius instead of Brown because it would be beneficial to him, "coz I'll need a pg".  That deal, to me, sounds like it's still in negotiations.  It's now KnicksGM's decision whether or not he wants to hold Magic to the previously agreed upon deal, since it was Magic who made a counterproposal to a deal that had already been worked out.

I am not going to hold KnicksGM to the deal.  However, please be advised that deals once agreed upon are considered final.  Please reply to all PM's you get (even if it's a ridiculous offer).  And never ignore a posted trade in the completed trades forum.

it was a conditional statement.
