Check out this rape trade by Beef Helmets back in Dec 5:
James Harden
Paul George
JJ Hickson
for
Deron Williams
Andre Drummond
Steve Nash
You, do me a favour? LOL get real! We both know any trade between you and I, you thought you were going to get the better of it.
And that trade was just good foresight on my part. Harden and George were both slumping at the time averaging about 28-30 fantasy points, I jumped on them as soon as Soupastars took over that team as I was well aware they were both likely to improve and they did.
The most nonsensical part of that trade was my offer was:
George + Harden
for
Deron + Nash
Soupastars countered with the Hickson for Drummond addition. Which hey wasn't that bad, Drummond definitely has a very bright future. But then he went and traded Drummond away for virtually nothing and lost basically the only bit of value he gained in the deal.
Also if you think my team in this league is bad, be thankful you ain't in my other league:
Guards - Kyrie, Monta, Lillard, Korver
Forwards - Durant, Melo, Paul George, Tristan Thompson
Centers - Noah, Monroe, Sanders, Vucevic
Nah man, I hold a strong policy that every trade should be fair. I always look into how the trade partner can benefit from my players and how I can hold it down. I gave you Holiday easily, so you can't front like I'm always into only improving myself. I'm into making this a fun competitive league because if I wanted to be a dick, I could of kept Irving and Holliday to myself.
That's 100% horse crap.
Slump or not, Harden was averaging 25/5/5/2stls ...way better than Deron's 15/8
Nash vs George doesn't even compare.
Nash didn't play any games in November and was still an injury played, and it's not like he was going to average the numbers he did in Phoenix playing with Kobe. George slumping or not produced more value than Nash and it wasn't even a balance deal if you trade those two straight up.
Hickson vs Drummond is probably as lopsided as the previous two. Hickson was averaging a double double playing 29 minutes a game and was consistent. Drummond struggle to get off the bench.
Drummond has a bright future?
Fool, this is fantasy basketball, not real life. lol
That deal was pure rape, and it never made sense why I had deals veto when this was the most unbalanced deal in this season of FB. That's why I don't like to hear crap from you guys because this ain't the only deal that blows a lot of nuts and takes away competition from the league. You can't cry about vetos or what not when you're on a mission to rape everyone on a deal.
I'm putting the shenanigans on you guys.
Metrocard is the good guy.
Cool Clyde trading LeBron will never make sense, but when does Clyde ever make sense? lol
You need to calm down.
What I meant was obviously you thought the trade(s) had potential to improve your team otherwise why would you agree to trade in the first place?
And I don't see the point in comparing NBA stats here. The only thing that matters in this league is fantasy points.
When I traded Deron for Harden it was 32fp vs 34fp and Harden was slumping and Deron was improving at that time he had 2-3 really solid games in a row.
Yes Steve Nash was injured but Paul George was averaging 28fp and to this day Nash is averaging 27fp so had George not improved considerably that part would have been a wash. The deal made a lot of sense for Soupastars because he had ONE PG on his roster and several SFs. What would have happened with this trade if George carried on playing how he had all season up to that point and Deron had gone back to his 20/10 averages? It would have been a solid trade for both parties.
Yes it is fantasy basketball and Drummond's "bright future" would be occurring right now had he not gone down injured, you know this just as well as I do which is why you traded for him. The dude is averaging nearly 25fp in 19 minutes per game... Everyone and their grandmothers knows that when he's put into the starter job he's going to average 30-35fp.
I don't really remember the trades you had vetoed. Wasn't there only 1? I'm obviously not counting the ones from yesterday which you even vetoed yourself lol...
I have vetoed many trades this year. I called for a veto on the WaterMELOn rape of Soupastars but it didn't happen. I also did in fact veto both of Displacers trades today for his own good but I'm sure those will not be vetoed either.
You can look back on that trade now in hindsight and call it the most unbalanced but actually at the time it was reasonably balanced and it made sense for both of us as I had a hole at SF and Soupastars had a gaping hole at PG.
Plus as I mentioned, I didn't even try to do the Drummond for Hickson part, that was offered to me in a counter offer, and I gladly accepted :lol:
I'm mad
