Since we have a healthy "Rate my team" thread going, we might as well streamline things further and have a thread for trades.

Post trade offers you've received or already accepted and we will give you our two cents on how you did or what you should do!

Harden for <would you trade him for anyone short of AD/KAT, or any 2 players?>?

Bidding up in an auction draft and landed with him for $69 in a 9cat roto format... however my team build is now very questionable, so considering a restructure at the top. Suspect I will just end up being stuck with him most of the season.

It's tough to recommend a trade down scenario, especially with a player of Harden's caliber. At the very least, we're looking at something in the neighborhood of a Lillard + a late-first rounder/early-second rounder as far as scenarios explorable are concerned.

Blockbuster deals are tough to structure, so you may want to consider restructuring your team in the mid-round value range.

You read my mind.
Have had discussions with parties about Lillard+1, Walker+1, and Jokic+1... but the other sides are always expecting the +1 to be some 6-7th rounder.

On with the search for a trade partner for M.Gasol. Might need to wait till he gets into gear in the regular season though...

Wire Advice:

After murrays injury, would you grab Pau Gasol off the wire.

Drops are either Thaditude, Batum or Hezonja.

I’m high on Pau becoming a facilitator in the post but I’d keep those aforementioned guys.

What about Sabonis?

Have Turner (who is looking fat in preseason games)... DS would be a good hedge against another rubbish season. Looks to be getting good run in the 2nd unit too.

Same 3 drops.

I've also got a "who's the best pick-up" type question
I've grouped some players together:

Lamb vs Bazemore vz Hezonja vs Marvin Williams vs Dinwiddie

Pau Gasol vs Favors vs Olynyk

How would you rank these players?
Thanks in advance for your thoughts

Lamb > Bazemore > Dinwiddie > Hezonja > Williams

Olynyk > Favors > Gasol; technically Gasol > Favors but those “DNP:OLD” days.
