TRADE

December 5, 2004

Charlotte acquires Samuel Dalembert, Kyle Korver, and Josh Davis from Philadelphia for Gerald Wallace, Eddie House, and Bernard Robinson.

thanks for the kind words fellas. :wink:

wow that's quite a trade....can you explain your motivation? the few times i've played as charlotte, wallace was my biggest asset.

Wed Nov 17, 2004 2:36 pm

Yeah it's simple, I like Kyle Korver. :wink:

It's the start of the big picture starting out. Wallace was good but I just didn't use him right I guess. I needed Korver's shooting. I know I gave up a lot with Wallace-but we'll see. :cool:

pretty good trade, but with both korver and kapono starting you have no slasher at any of those positions. if i could suggest one player you should think about aquiring that A) has a chance to develop into a something great. and B) is more than one dimensional(shooting and slashing) id suggest J.R. Smith a rookie that plays for charlotte out of high school. overall a good trade getting Dalembert.

Yeah I agree with Trubucksfan, getting J R Smith would really help your team, he also has pretty good hops I think, you should look into it because you will be pretty weak in that area.

Hmm..I like JR Smith. But who should I give up? Kapono and Bogans? What would be a fair trade?

That's it! You raped the Sixers,If Billy King would do this kind of trade I would go and kill him with bunch of other fans.Dalembert is a great improvement over Primoz..also will you start Korver?Wallace is great but Korver and Dalembert are Philly's future.
I noticed that you made the trade on the 5th of December...1 day after my birthday,damn I would shoot myself if it would happen!

hmm, i was going to say no that wouldnt work but bogans is surprisingly a 57 the same as jr smith so yeah giving up kapono and bogans for jr smith and some other player rated in the high 40s or maybe a 50 would work. Looking at his stats hes not as good a shooter as it thought but hes a better dunker. reminds me of a young desmond mason. better potential jumpshot. good luck with this trade.

i think getting JR is a good deal cause he's actually pretty good, so give those other guys up

It's nice to know that i might be in some way connected to one of the best(if not the best) dynasty on the net. and hey sometimes a GM needs help from his assitant gms. good update cant wait to see if JR has big games in the future for the BETcats. btw how did he get all the way up to a 59 overall? hes a 57 in my game and i have bens roster 1.1.

good question? I don't know--I have done 2 practice sessions with him thus far? I asked my roomate the same thing b/c I was wondering if player's ratings improve on a weekly basis if they play well or is it from the dynasty development traing stuff? Either way, he's improving. :wink:

Update tommorrow.

I'm most impressed with Dalembert, this guy is a beast. Smith got rocked by the elite SG's in the league so far. McGrady, Reggie Miller, Crawford have torched him. But he's improving. I'm working on his outside shooting and speed. Korver is a very pleasant suprise as well. Over-all, I'm happy with the team. I doubt I'm going to make anymore moves before the trade deadline.

stay tuned. :shock:

i thought i was just either nuts or a moron...but maybe not, since your ratings seem to be changing...i noticed that ben gordon and skita's ratings both changed a few times through the season
