Bucks/Wizards

[Milwaukee Bucks (Jacob)]

Wizards Trade:
Jonas Valanciunas: 16.26M, 16.26M 

Bucks Trade:
Mike Conley: 12.18M
Brandon Clarke: 4.34M, RFA
Jae'Sean Tate: 2M, 2M, 2M
Otto Porter: 11.04M, 11.04M, 11.04M

I accept. Not sure what I'll do now with zero depth, but I can resign Fred so I'll figure the rest out later. 

[Washington Wizards (octstuff)]

Accept:

Since I don't know what direction should I go I went both ways. Competing while rebuilding. I count on Tate and Clarke production to go up. Conley will give me one solid year and Otto, not sure about him but I like him still.

Few things.
Please update my roster:
Bledsoe and Harkless both been dropped some time ago, Bledsoe need cap hit to be added. Horford will be FA as I resigned Powell and I guess Troy Brown Jr I only keep rights for him so I should have roster space for this trade.

[New York Knicks (jsood)]

Approve. Unsure what to think of this deal but I think I take the Buck's side. I do think JV's mins and production will go down if and when Zion returns to the Pelicans but he's obviously always going to be an injury risk and the upside is really high with JV. There's risk here though, Steven Adams production really tailed off playing alongside Zion and I could see the same thing happening with JVal.

Wiz gets a lot of depth but I don't really think any player he got has more than 25 point upside. Nor do I really feel like any of these pieces are worth rebuilding around. Will be a decent amount of points this upcoming year tho. 

[Blazers GM (Tyler)]

Approve.

This trade is interesting for a handful of reasons. I think if Octo would've decided which direction he wanted to go prior to this deal, he could've received a better return for the direction he would be taking his team. The crop of players he got in return are valuable depth pieces, but nothing that'll put him over the top. Clarke (and Tate to a lesser extent) still have room to grow as players and could develop into something, who knows. A JV trade should've netted a top tier young dude IMO.

Lamelo, FVV, JV, DJ + Giannis is a nasty 5-some that nobody in the league can compete with. That group itself can & will win a lot of weeks for Bucks. The depth is razor thin & he will need to make some moves at the margins to round out the squad, but these are all good problems to have when you have that level of star power.

[Golden State Warriors (Caleb)]

Approve

I may in the minority here but I actually don’t hate the return. JV’s game is obviously ideal for this league but he absolutely is a defensive liability and I don’t think it’s going to get any better the older he gets. This year was basically best case for him and I’m just not sure he continues to see the consistency of minutes he has.

Obviously there is some risk on the other side and Octy doesn’t really get any stud or blue chip prospect but I think he makes up for it in volume. Fun trade though guys- excited to see how it all turns out

[Heat GM (Bryan)]

Approve.

Don't love it for wizards. Hate that he does not even pick a direction for his team and is just as confused why he made the trade as the rest of us. Value is enough for veto not to be worthy here.

[Toronto Raptors (Perk)]

Approve, I agree with Caleb I know the lack of direction comment throws people off but if Oct wants to rebuild he can flip Conley and maybe Otto for something. If he wants to compete I agree that Conley has something left in the tank and these other guys can contribute as well. If J-Val gets hurt or plays a little less / gets less boards then I think the trade goes down as a success for Wizards. And for the Bucks side I get it as well, open up some roster spots and save some money.

[Washington Wizards (octstuff)]

Just to let you know guys. I don't own my picks for 2-3 years so my rebuild needs to look like this. If I will be dead last it will benefit someone else unless I want to buy back my pick. You guys could be angry that I sent Val to Bucks but none of you tried to give me better offer or offer that I want. Believe me I wanted more from Bucks too.

[San Antonio Spurs (Chris)]

Pass. Also like for bucks, but that's cuz I'm not a fan of Clarke or Tate, it's a perfectly reasonable trade for one guy coming off what really was an absolute best case scenario for him this last year. Besides, we all know Hayes is gonna take those center minutes with his defense and per-minute prowess 😉
