I'd like to make you an offer you wouldn't be able refuse.

Give it to me... Though when Barton returns my team will be perfect for what I'm going for, but who knows.

Okay, so my good man.
You are leading this league, you have very much been the frontrunner for long and certainly in my eyes a strong favourite to win this entire league. Add to that you have 14 games margin to a non-playoff spot.

Though I see a weakness in your team and that is rebounds, and that's certainly a category you would like to consider to improve if you want a more balanced team heading into the playoffs. With K.Love I can give you that.

So here's my trade proposal.
Kevin Love and CJ McCollum for Kemba Walker

by Vibe on Mon Jan 07, 2019 8:27 pm

I have tanked rebounds from the very beggining, that was on purpose, and Love isn't suddenly going to fix that, especially without a timetable for a return, while everything what CJ has to offer I already have plenty of.

Kemba is the absolute alpha on the Hornets team and I'd rather keep him.

I changed my mind, I'd rather get rid of K.Love for someone with good points, assists and three pointers.

Well then I've got Ricky Rubio for you. Averaging 13/4/6.3 with 1.3 steals. His weak categories are fg% and TO's which is perfect for you since your team isn't really good in those anyway. Is Rubio a top top player? No but he's a good one and one of the best in assists in the league. I just don't think you're going to get a top player getting rid of Love since we have no clue when he's going to come back still.

I'd personally keep Rubio but I'm tired of his fg%, same reason I ended up finally dropping Eric Gordon.

Edit: 1.4 triples per game too. That's been trending up as well.

by El Gunner on Mon Jan 07, 2019 8:36 pm

He's basically fit, they're just not rushing him back, but I'm sure he'll be back after the all-star break at latest. He'll push the franchise to play so that he can prove himself to the rest of the league and potential suitors.

I'm not saying it will have you suddenly winning rebounds against everyone, you certainly won't beat Mole in it. But I inspected your losses so far this season, and you aren't that far off from other playoff teams in the category. If you just make a good move here and there, you can be competing. You certainly won't be losing out on that much points with CJ in the meantime, plus you're stacked in terms of 3 pointers and assists. I can just genuinely see this working out for you.

But final choice is yours of course.

by Vibe on Tue Jan 08, 2019 12:21 pm

Sorry LG, rebounds just don't interest me one bit.

In fact, I only won rebounds 2 times against you, lost against others by miles, so I would suggest you to get rid of any rebounders you might have and try something else.

by El Gunner on Tue Jan 08, 2019 12:42 pm

by miles? lol, I checked for myself yesterday, not all of them were blowouts. It's all okay though, no worries.

by Vibe on Tue Jan 08, 2019 1:09 pm

I lost by like 150 rebounds two weeks ago..

by Vibe on Tue Jan 08, 2019 1:13 pm

If you want treys and points, only guy I have that I would part with is Barnes... He gets 2-3 treys a game and 18-20 points, 5 rebounds but nothing else. I like guys who offer a bit all around.

If anyone needs this I'll listen to offers.

by Warrior on Tue Jan 08, 2019 6:37 pm

Might make an offer next week after our beef

You're looking for steals and assists ?

Okay look at my team, what would you accept for HB

by Vibe on Wed Jan 09, 2019 6:12 am

I'll think about it...

My boys just had the worst night since the start, almost everone flopped.

Will hold a team meeting.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Wed Jan 09, 2019 12:32 pm

As far as trade goes, it's the same story. I'll gladly recieve offers for Millsap and Tim Hardaway Jr.

Inb4 dumb offers because ya'll taking me for an idiot Laughing

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Wed Jan 09, 2019 12:34 pm

No idea why EG wants Treys though Laughing

It's the only category apart from percentages and turnovers that he's currently beating me in.

by El Gunner on Wed Jan 09, 2019 12:47 pm

You're saying that as if you are the team to beat when it comes to treys hmm

by Great Leader Sprucenuce on Wed Jan 09, 2019 12:53 pm

@El Gunner wrote:You're saying that as if you are the team to beat when it comes to treys

Quite the opposite, i'm trash.

Also You're miles behind in points, assists and rebounds. I would make the argument that all 3 are more pressing needs than 3s tbh.

by CBarca on Wed Jan 09, 2019 1:00 pm

So is that a no on Rubio?

by El Gunner on Wed Jan 09, 2019 1:02 pm

You are saying that as if you are the only other team in the league
And I did mention I was looking for points and assists, besides treys.

by El Gunner on Wed Jan 09, 2019 1:02 pm

@CBarca wrote:So is that a no on Rubio?

I don't like his inconsistency, but I'll still consider.
Who do you want for him again?

No but i am middle of the road so if you're miles behind in those categories then it's likelihood you'll be the same against most.

No disrespect really intended just i think you're looking for the wrong things.

by El Gunner on Wed Jan 09, 2019 1:23 pm

No disrespect either, but I think I have a better understanding of my team since I sit with it every week.
But since you are being so helpful, Lauri Markkenen for Kevin Love?

by CBarca on Wed Jan 09, 2019 1:55 pm

Just Kevin Love, straight up.

He's a + assister, + rebounder, + steals from the PG position, and at least standard in 3 pointers and points.

by CBarca on Wed Jan 09, 2019 2:33 pm

I won't waste your time and tell you he just got injured though. Muscle problem and should be back in two weeks. But if that cools your interest I can't blame you. I'd still offer you Vonleh who right now is a double double machine when he gets minutes (which he is for the most part now). Put up 14/16 and averages 1 steal and block a game

by El Gunner on Wed Jan 09, 2019 2:39 pm

Yeah I saw just now as well, not that keen on Vonleh to be honest.

I can throw in Rudy Gay and/or Terrence Ross as well.

by Warrior on Wed Jan 09, 2019 10:20 pm

Anyone interested in a bundle Kanter + Clarkson ? Must be done damn quick please Thumbs up

I want a big guy in return, PF or C, no need to be a superstar, simply a fair trade

Sent a hidden offer to @Nick09 since he never posts here, if you see this message before it expires just know it remains my priority

by CBarca on Thu Jan 10, 2019 12:39 am

If you want I would consider Kanter for Vonleh but that's only if he gets traded to the Kings.
