    And you did win, but no disrespect, this is the best point made in this thread.
    Find a new slant.

    Yes, it's the best point and you made it.

    But you also made the challenge in the first place and forced us to deal Nova...

    Right.
    If amnesty was a possibility in tradechecker somehow we woulda came out with better results most likely.

    Bring on the second challenge. I thought the goal was to be realistic, but fuck it. I got this next time.

    Um, you do realise that one was a bit of a joke, right?

    Daye for a TPE + 2nd round pick = get an extra pick out of a guy we're gonna dump

    Stuckey for Harris + 2nd round pick = get an additional $8.5 mil in cap space this off-season AND another extra pick

    They might only be 2nd rounders but extra picks are extra picks.

    Why would Toronto do your deal? You didn't even explain why dude!

    Stop hating and start celebrating... or is this not entertaining

    It's entertaining for sure.


    Stuckey for Harris would never happen. There's no way Atlanta trades away the cap space they need to resign Smith, Teague and hunt for another high quality free agent. I'm pretty sure they're hoping for Dwight chosing to play for his hometown team with his buddy Smith. It's not like Stuckey is huge upgrade over Harris either, so there is absolutely zero incentive to make that deal for them.

    my deal was stuck, daye and CV to Toronto for Calderon, Kleiza and Amir.

    Toronto Takes Daye, CV and Stuck to use Stuck as a sixth man behind DeRozan and Lowry where he'd fit somewhat nicely. CV and Daye stretch the floor as Valalalalalalalalalnadsjfhakdfj develops a post game. CV providing the immediate remedy, Daye potentially serving the long term fix or being an expiring who does nothing.

    They ditch Calderon because he isn't playing big minutes and he isn't good for more than spot minutes behind Lowry at the 1. They ditch Amir because he clutters the paint for Valaksjflakdjfaldkhf offensively. They ditch Kleiza because, well, he's Kleiza and who gives a shit?

    The pistons use Calderon as a distributor, allowing Knight to slide over to the two and turn into a prolific scorer when matchups permit it. Amir Johnson might actually start over Maxiell immediately and give the Pistons a better defensive look. Kleiza eats krispy kreme and keeps the bench warm so the starter's butt muscles don't contract on the cold bench and form hemorrhoids when they drink their gatorade.

    Calderon isn't good for more than spot minutes behind Lowry? Really? Dude plays approx 25 minutes off the bench. Now either Lowry plays 23 minutes per game or you're wrong.

    And you might think Atlanta think they have a chance at Dwight. But I don't think Atlanta think the way you think

    Think whatever you want though - you lost

    The Atlanta/Dwight thing has been pretty commonly speculated, FWIW.

    Hometown + Josh Smith friendship + cap space + need a marquee player = Dwight speculation
