How do we get Giannis?

 

in our dreams

 

CJ/Nurk/Ant/Little/all picks for Giannis?

Dame/MLE
Powell/Elleby
Giannis/DJJ
Covington/Melo
Collins/Giles

then some ring chasers sign with us and we win title

 

we don't
he's signed a long term deal with the bucks, so, they'd have to trade him, which they won't.

However, if we suck again next year, we may gift Lillard to the Bucks.

You can trade for him....in 2k.

 

Why not? They can’t break through and they’ve lost all their picks. Giannis could demand trade like everyone else does nowadays.

 

Can you? It’s hard to acquire big name players on 2K.

 

no star gets traded while they’re under contract for years.
Who is the last player that was trade that wasn’t at least in the second to last year of their deal. It’s always towards the end because they leverage that they are leaving regardless and you better get something for that player as early as possible

 

Of the top of my head, Chris Paul got traded a year after signing with Rockets.

 

A 35 year old on a horrible contract and harden had him shipped out cause they didn’t get along

 

draft him when you have the oportunity

other than that, wait until he's 37 and averaging 7 points, then sign him for the minimum

no chance of it happening in between

 

Not lookin like a horrible contract right now.

 

Join a fantasy league.

 

He'd have to be a real shit to demand a trade so soon after re-signing.

 

You can add Blake Griffin to that list.

 

Yep. Good one. He was trade with a few months after inking the deal. What about Paul George too? He demanded out only one year after re-signing with them.

 

Dude is looking to re-sign for only $25m per year the next 3 years for his next contract. If his current one isn’t looking horrible right now, are you giving him that next deal?

Blake and CP3 were both traded after their franchises realized the mistake in signing them to those deals. Blake ended up being traded for only Bradley, Tobias, Boban, and a 1st. CP3 took four 1sts to move.

PG situation was the only one where they performed up to their contract and was able to leave after year 1. It wasn’t like PG demanded a trade to go with Kawhi to Charlotte or Memphis, he demanded a trade to team with Kawhi because of LA lol. If Kawhi didn’t hit him up, we don’t even know if he would demand a trade. Would’ve still been very possible considering what happened in the playoffs that year, but again, you didn’t hear anything about the trade request until after the trade happened. Maybe it took PG requesting the trade for OKC to re-evaluate where they were so that triggered the whole rebuild. If he didn’t maybe they’d still be here fighting for 8th seeds in the west lol

 

oh the guy nobody wanted here ON A BUY OUT? yeesh

 

I think before people post “how to get superstar player A” scenarios, they should ask if Portland would take that deal for Dame
