He's talking about me....lol
There has been several times where "95% of GMs would guaranteed said the deal was horrible for me (skillz)"
and I said no to it.
He’s implicitly talking about me he’ll be happy to know I’ve said fuck it and am not asking anyone for advice anymore. I was not thinking about either of you when making the comment More so the CY guys and some others Though Trading with jah is like pulling teeth. Everything must be perfectly aligned with no downside risk for him to pull the trigger. Impossible to find fair trades that way and that’s why his teams have always been .500 squads |

I shouldn't have given you 2 2nds....  |

I shouldn't have given you 2 2nds.... The trouble I have with the really really awful GM’s is that there response (or non response) will be the same no matter what type of deal I offer. Sonics, Magic, and others that will rename nameless for the time being could have gotten past their CY so easily by just accepting no-brainer deals. So now I just find myself offering just outrageous one-sided deals (that benefit me) to these terrible GMs because they have declined or failed to counter so many really good trades that would have objectively helped. I’ve given up. So if the chances are like ~5% that they accept an offer, and the quality of the offer has no bearing on whether they accept, I’m going to make terrible offers. To good GMs I make good offers. |

Last year I offered Dirk + Kidd for Kobe + Shard to break. No counter.
Offered Big Dog +++ for Shaq. No response or counter.
Now i offer donyell Marshall for Eddy Curry because the return doesn’t matter to these guys

He was unable to use that. Not saying he should have dealt ME Shaq, but moving him was the right choice. If you don’t know how to use him, find easier plays to build with |

To good GMs I make good offers. I think part of the issue is they look at what you spent to get someone and dont realize that you pumped points into them to make the player better. You do a great job buying cheap, upgrading and flipping the upgrade. And then you also win your trades against the noobs, so people might be afraid to pull the trigger. It's like the Brown trade, the crap I got for it, other than from Play, as he understood why I was trying to do it and why. That said I wish I had realized Erbes was still willing to do Theo for Smith and that his inquire about Bibby was just a "lets see if he's stupid enough to go for trading bibby too" |
