PHI-UTA

[Donkey Kong]

59 Evan Turner $3,488,000
for
59 Monta Ellis $13,253,012 $14,246,988 $14,500,000
UTA 2020 1st

Philly current cap: $75,868,120 which gives enough cap space to absorb Ellis. Ellis contract sucks but a future 1st is nice.

I contacted DK about Turner earlier in the year. I think he's a good fit on my team once he returns from injury. Getting rid of Monta was my main purpose here, so getting a guy I coveted is better than getting nothing back.

[Paul Pierce]

Accept, he gets a similar rated wing and gets rid of montas contract. I also like it for Philly because they get a future first just for taking on 15 million in salary. Good trade guys !

[Theodore Duncan]

Accept. Same reasoning as Paul Pierce above. Looks ok for both.

[Allen Iverson]

This is fine but Bowie is reaming you DJ :)

I accept

[Justin Timberlake]

It does take a pick or another positive asset in order to move a negative one. While this seems more like an offseason move to open up cap it's fine.

Accept

It seems that way when you think you can get rid of 5yr contracts like this for a 2nd ;)

[John Stockton]

this is the price you pay for offering monta ellis a contract like this in the off season. let this be a warning to those who offer shitty free agents big long term contracts - you'll probably be paying to give that player away later

Is this finalized?

So the way it goes now, is I adjust it in the sim (which I did when it got 5 accepts), but Yao is updating the roster page. He will post here when he updates it, and then I'll move it into accepted trades. But you can go ahead and update your depth chart as soon as you get 5 accepts, because I do the sim changes same day (or at least before the next sim).

Little did we know...

[Jackie Kong]

The idea of this trade was for next 76ers GM to amnesty Ellis.

dynasty720.proboards.com/thread/6958/phx-bos-phi -> That trade ended up working like a charm for Celtics although 76ers can't really complain as they are the favorites to win this year, lol. Plus they were not supposed to know that the pick would jump this much, lol.

Edit: Also to note is that this trade came before the odds changed. Jazz ended 8th worst so if we were using old odds, Jazz would have had 2.6% of getting 1st instead of 6% like they did. - dynasty720.proboards.com/thread/5791/unprotected-draft-picks
