Cleveland gets: Bennedict Mathurin, Andrew Nembhard, Jarace Walker & Buddy Hield
Indiana gets: Donovan Mitchell, Ricky Rubio & Sam Merrill
Why?
Cleveland gets a nice package for a player who is an odd fit next to Garland & has uncertainty regarding his contract status.
Indiana gets what is probably the perfect co-star next to Hali in terms of fit.
1.) 09 Dec 2023 08:07:52
Mitchell is worth more.
16 Oct 2023 15:52:29
Cavaliers receive: Isaiah Todd, Jeremiah Robinson-Earl & Tre Mann
Thunder receive: Ricky Rubio & 2 2nds ('25 & '26 via Cavs)
Why?
Cleveland adds bench depth.
Thunder get some assets for guys they might cut.
1.) 16 Oct 2023 16:27:43
Thunder needs assets?
2.) 16 Oct 2023 17:27:44
Meant Isaiah Joe, not Todd.
05 Oct 2023 16:42:44
Cleveland receives: Bennedict Mathurin, Jarace Walker, Buddy Hield, '24 & '26 top 5 protected firsts.
Indiana receives: Donovan Mitchell
Cleveland gets a nice package for Mitchell.
Indiana adds a player who could fit well next to Tyrese.
28 Sep 2023 16:20:07
Cleveland gets: Duncan Robinson, Caleb Martin & '26 srp via Lakers
Miami gets: Isaac Okoro, Ricky Rubio, Dean Wade & Sam Merrill
Why?
Cleveland adds a shooter & a wing. They add much needed wings to the roster.
Miami does this to unload Robinson for more cap flexibility. Okoro is a decent prospect worth taking a close look. Dean Wade is a shooting big, could bring value off the bench. Rubio is non-guaranteed for next season & is considering retirement.
1.) 28 Sep 2023 18:38:16
Miami gives up the best player and draft capital. LOL!
2.) 28 Sep 2023 19:42:25
They also dump a bad contract & get under the tax.
3.) 29 Sep 2023 00:48:31
Miami is one of those teams that doesn't worry too much about the tax level.
22 Sep 2023 18:50:41
Cleveland gets: Tim Hardaway Jr. & Jaden Hardy
Dallas gets: Isaac Okoro, Ricky Rubio, Dean Wade & 2 2nds ('25 & '26)
Why?
Cleveland upgrades their bench.
Dallas gets salary relief next year & a cheap big who can stretch the floor.
1.) 24 Sep 2023 23:00:14
Not enough for Hardaway + Hardy.

How was my ESPN fantasy basketball salary cap draft? Please rate my team from 1-10, 7 or higher is good. Thinking about trading Tre Jones for a Center. I thought players could be listed in multiple positions.
Thanks for taking your time to rate my team. Appreciate everyone's feedback.
Do you think I can win the championship with that roster?
NO. PLAYER OFFER AMOUNT
20 Chet Holmgren OKC, PF $23
25 Mikal Bridges Bkn, SF $38
29 Andrew Wiggins GS, SF $5
32 Zion Williamson NO, PF $22
36 Russell Westbrook LAC, PG $6
38 Donovan Mitchell Cle, SG $37
40 Marcus Smart Mem, SG $3
45 Darius Garland Cle, PG $25
56 Tre Jones SA, PG $2
66 Aaron Gordon Den, PF $3
69 Spencer Dinwiddie Bkn, SG $7
71 Evan Mobley Cle, PF $12
87 Jarrett Allen Cle, C $4.
1.) 30 Aug 2023 05:07:59
I would say it's pretty average so 5.
2.) 31 Aug 2023 21:27:01
do the numbers mean you took zion 32nd for 22$? seems kinda odd you didnt get a pick on the top 20, but maybe im just misinformed on the format.
I think this is a super solid team:
Holmgren/ Allen
Zion/ Mobley/ Gordon
Bridges/ Wiggins
Mitchell/ Smart/ Dinwiddie
Garland/ Westbrook/ Jones
Lots of good depth. Only thing is you don't have a top-10 star, maybe Mitchell can be that guy? IDK
depth 9/ 10
firepower 8/ 10
shooting 8/ 10
defense 8.5/ 10
injury prone 6/ 10
overall 39.5/ 50 = 7.8 / 10.

Please remove the one that was posted & replace it with the last one I sent. Thanks & sorry for the inconvenience.
{Ed001's Note - I can't, I deleted it as I thought they were the same on a quick look. If you send it in again I can do that for you.}

Wow, that was a wild trade deadline!
Who do y'all have as winners?
I got the Nets. They got the most out of their superstars in terms of value. I think they'll still be competitive, they have some very interesting pieces & a decent coach.
1.) 10 Feb 2023 02:48:03
I like the Net, Lakers, and Blazers.
2.) 10 Feb 2023 14:21:18
Not really sure what Portland accomplished. Got a first for flipping Hart into Thybulle? Seemed pretty "meh" to me.
3.) 10 Feb 2023 19:28:08
It wasn’t great, but I’m much happier they decided to turn vets into assets than assets into vets. They weren’t contending. Might as well stock up and see what the offseason can bring.
4.) 11 Feb 2023 03:26:45
Hart is decent but like Bmiller said they aren’t contending. I very intrigued to see Reddish get pt and an opportunity to get steady minutes. I assume he will start at the 3 or be a major bench contributor. Thybulle also adds youth and elite defense.
03 Jan 2023 03:13:53
Donovan Mitchell scored 71 points in a close overtime victory over the Bulls!
Historic performance, first ever 70-10 game. He was 2 rebounds shy of a triple double.
1.) 03 Jan 2023 16:36:09
Arguably the 2nd best regular season game of all time.
2.) 03 Jan 2023 21:32:28
Wilt's 100 and Kobe's 81. Which one is not making the cut, NBA16?
3.) 04 Jan 2023 00:05:51
I honestly have it slightly over Kobe’s
71/ 8/ 11 FG:65% 3pt:46% 20FTM
81/ 6/ 2 FG:60% 3pt:53% 18FTM
Cavs/ Bulls game was also very close and Mitchell wasn’t left open as the Raps did Kobe in 4th.
4.) 04 Jan 2023 22:50:26
Idk if Wilts can ever be topped. 100 & 25, and no telling how many blocks (prolly had a triple double)
09 Dec 2022 19:15:45
The Sacramento Kings did something that went under the radar. They traded a '24 first round pick that is protected through 2026, which means they can't trade any first-round picks until '28 as long as the pick hasn't conveyed.
That is a smart move for a franchise with a shaky past. It eliminates any chance of them mortgaging their future for a star.
We've seen teams trade all their future firsts end in disaster, like the Nets-Boston transaction.
1.) 09 Dec 2022 23:22:01
Ya it’s great! Fart noise.
2.) 10 Dec 2022 03:08:09
Yea, the Kings GM has done a great job getting Sabonis, getting expiring contracts, flipping those contracts + a protected first for Huerter, and then signing Monk away from the competition (Lakers) as well as hiring Mike Brown away from the competition (Golden State) .
The Kings seriously need to extend GM Monte McNair's contract that expires at the end of this season. Then focus on extensions for Sabonis and Monk.
It seems like the only "poor" move the GM has done may have been signing Rashaun Holmes to that 4 yr/ $48 mil (last year a Player Option) contract. But if that is the only bad move, we can live with that.
I seriously think that McNair could be in running for Executive of the Year. GM Danny Ainge and David Griffin/ Trajan Langdon would be the competition in my book.
3.) 10 Dec 2022 18:49:37
@Fredman honestly, $12 million per season is pretty reasonable. They can easily move on from him if they don't want him.
12 Nov 2023 20:40:15
This is horrible for Toronto. Flynn is their back-up point guard, they're left with no back-ups for Schroder after this trade.
08 Nov 2023 11:03:04
Toronto isn't trading Barnes for flat earther.
08 Nov 2023 00:58:18
That's not enough for OG, you'll have to give up a lightly protected first.
04 Nov 2023 17:40:08
The value is fair, but I'm not sure DeRozan is the right target for Miami. They should aim higher.
01 Nov 2023 23:33:46
Too good for the Pacers.
16 Feb 2023 21:49:16
Mike Bibby was a big part of those fun Sacramento Kings teams. I don't know if he had all-star accolades, but he certainly passed the eye test.
05 Jan 2023 15:33:08
1)Fox
2)Sabonis
3)Mobley
4)D Mitchell
5)Zion
6)Paul George
7)SGA
8)Anfernee Simmons
9)Dejounte Murray
10)Mathurin.
15 Dec 2022 17:23:03
Harris+Ross+Franz Wagner+Return Chicago
That's a massive overpay. I wouldn't trade Wagner straight up for LaVine.
10 Dec 2022 18:50:57
The Mavs need to do something fast, or else Luka is going to demand a trade. Losing Brunson was a big blow to that franchise.
10 Dec 2022 18:49:37
@Fredman honestly, $12 million per season is pretty reasonable. They can easily move on from him if they don't want him.
