Thanks for that comment PD. I've tried not to be out of line with trade talks. As you said, people value players differently so that's why I always like to discuss trades via email instead of sending out random offers.
I thought bmd did a good job with the trade but I also think his trade partner did well to receive a 1st rounder for someone he doesn't want to keep. It seemed like a pretty standard trade to me and a win/win. I would be happy adding someone of Feltons caliber if I were contending and I'd be happy getting a 1st round pick if I were playing for the future.
There may be certain managers that think Felton for a draft pick isn't fair but I'm not one of them. Regardless of all that, I'm just trying to give myself a chance to win this year after coming up short last year. I want to make a trade that will help me do that. I have some current good players like Aldridge, Millsap and Duncan available for a similar level guy. I also have some future talent like Barnes and Sullinger available. Hopefully someone wants to discuss something soon before I become a seller myself. :)

See...I only saw what he wanted, not what I would want in return. Definitely most are not my top keepers...what what am I saying...uh...They are all worth multiple picks each.

You'd take Jamal Crawford but not Louis Williams or Ben Gordon? That seems very strange.

I didn't realize my attempt to acquire a non-keeper player to help in a couple categories would be such a big topic of conversation. If only this type of attention got me a trade offer or email.
I just used Crawford as an example of the type of player I'd be interested in acquiring. I wasn't specifically saying it has to be him. I'll be happy to explain why I like Crawford over the two players you named though. Jamal Crawford averages more minutes per game, points per game, FT attempts per game and has a higher FT% and FG% than both of them. I also think his production level and role with his team have the best chance to stay consistent.
Would I ultimately settle for someone like Lou or Gordon? Sure. As long as I couldn't get someone that was outperforming both of them in everything that matters to me. Or if I could get them cheaper.

I have a couple of players who can make nice 8th/9th guys on a contender:
Emeka Okafor grabs killer OREB and REB while swatting 1.4 shots a game.
Old vets Richard Hamilton (just returning from injury) and Tayshaun Prince offer scoring in the low teens and top FT percentages.
Modest pick upgrades are all that are required.

Frustrating to see young guys I carried much of last season in Vukevic and Vazquez doing so well. I though they were good but couldn't find room for them. And Seraphin to a lesser extent.

Looking to unload Josh Smith for a somebody with better FT%. Do not need blocks and points but need every other category.
He was ranked #16 in the player rater last year. He's 54th this year but getting crushed by FT%. It's by far the lowest of his career so I see no reason why he shouldn't eventually get back to his career avg. Only 27 years old so solid longterm keeper.
Not giving him away and will keep him if the right offer doesn't come along. Looking for minimum top 50 type of player. Very unlikely I'd want 2 players for him unless one is a throw in because you like me :)

My trade above needs to get on the ESPN homepage. Should probably keep a rolling summary here too as backup.
G20 NBA 12-13 Traded Draft Picks
11/26: dpr gets bmd's 1st for his 6th (Felton)
12/30: Species gets Pete's 3rd for his 5th (Okafor)
1/8/: GO's 1st for CC's 5th in the Kirilenko deal

After having several trade discussions, it looks like replacing Rondo is not possible. With out him I don't think winning this season is a realistic option.
I'm interested in starting a rebuilding process immediately. I'm looking to get younger keepers and am interested in draft pick upgrades as well.
Tim Duncan, Paul Millsap, Rajon Rondo, Kevin Martin, Kyle Korver, Amir Johnson, Vince Carter, Jordan Crawford, Harrison Barnes and Jared Sullinger are all available.
I have very little interest in trading LaMarcus Aldridge or Greg Monroe.
If anyone has interest in any of the players I listed, feel free to send me an offer or email.

Yeah. I realized that I had never owned Shaquille O'Neal. It was time. O'Neal, Iverson, and TMac all bring more to the table than the guy that was replaced a week ago.
'Chukwudiebere Maduabum' was signed because he looks like a funny collection of random letters.

Still looking to deal J.r. Smith for anyone looking for help in 3s. He's averaging 20 pts and 3.1 3pm over his last 15 days. Plus throw in nearly 6 rebs, 4 asts and 2 stls per game over that same stretch which is good for top 25 production.
I'd also consider trading Luol Deng or David West with him in a package deal for teams needing depth down the stretch. I'll listen to any offer and throw counters your way so let's get to it!
Biggest need is a center eligible player that can be considered as potential keeper material for next season. picks are also welcome.

GG my team. Didn't have any chance at the top but with Kobe going down probably going to settle at 4th or 5th now. Sucks that it's going to pretty welly kill my chances for next year as well.

It's unusual for me to be short games going into the final weeks as I usually like to stay slightly ahead of the pace due to the player uncertainties the last few weeks. This year, I dealt with many injuries and had a hard time keeping pace. Varejao started off a beast, then went down early and I was left scrambling for decent center options. Both pgs Wall and Rubio started the season out coming off knee surgeries and missed a couple months, so I had little hope of contending. Making a late season run to likely finish 6th again is pretty amazing.
The final couple months I finally lucked into getting solid numbers from FA pick ups Brandan Wright and Jermaine O'neal at center. I tried all season to trade for another center, and everyone refused to budge even on mid-tier guys. Even offering up guys like JR Smith and David West, couldn't make anything happen. I was prepared to trade those guys and pack it in for next season when JR Smith went on an absolute tear and even collossal disappointments like Scola started putting up big numbers again. I gained 10 points in assists and nearly as many in steals with my guard tandem back, and somehow managed to stay at or near the top in both rebound categories most of the season. Now let's hope for a healthy offseason and see if I can build on this young team's chances at competing.

Wow, thanks... glad I held on. My guys shot great %'s last night to get me a little cushion back but it was definitely very uncomfortable for the last week.
Lawson finally coming back and giving me a few great games helped as did Lebron sitting for Pete for many games down the stretch.
I don't think anyone had cracked the 140 barrier for a while til Pete did it there at the end for a bit... is there a way to check that?
I have now won 2 of the 3 G20/4 leagues... only leaves baseball to complete the trilogy. Has anyone else won all 3?

Now, undo the post-season HumpDashian pickup before we have another Lou Williams event next year.
Too much work/night classes/kid's sports going on. Forgot to make a couple of player pickups the last day.
Hopefully some of these "overall #2 picks" will show their worth...soon.

I have had a great time in the league, but over time I've gotten less and less interest in the NBA and I don't think I've seen more than highlights of a game this year. That doesn't equal me being interested or competitive in a fantasy league, especially one as deep and hard as this one. I'm not planning on playing next year, but in fairness to the next manager, I have a trade offer. Would anyone or maybe 3 people want to weigh in on the offer and tell me if they think it would be a fair trade?

Frick, it was a pleasure having you in this league.
IMO, if you aren't playing next year then you shouldn't be making trades.
That said, if you are 100% not playing next year I'm sure there are more than a few managers that would love your team. I'm sure the commishes would have no problem appointing a new manager asap and that new manager could evaluate the trade.
