Parsons is fine folks. Even if he weren't no need to offer TWO WHOLE SECOND ROUNDERS!
Oooohhhh.....How did you turn that down eja? After all....he might have had micro fracture surgery. Your young borderline all star may be done playing NBA ball because he might have had micro surgery, which we now suspect, not because of what was reported initially or because of his time frame to return, but because he refused to answer a question.
Well....what can I say ladies. I like to live dangerously. I know two second rounders could be the difference between a championship and last place, but....I just don't believe in that
I am shocked - shocked! - that LarBrd33 would lowball you like that. Very much unlike him.
I post way too much in this thread as-is. If I threw a temper tantrum everytime someone made a perceived lowball offer to me, this thread would be 1000 pages long. Normally I just laugh it off and make a counter offer.
Note that I've seeded numerous teams with all-star talent (John Wall, Chris Paul, Al Horford, Brook Lopez, Pau Gasol, Klay Thompson, Tyler Zeller, Kemba Walker, etc) in my short time here. I've seeded numerous teams with building blocks and draft picks. You know I've made close to 100 trades in the year and a half since I joined this league. I just successfully orchestrated a 4-team trade where everyone received what they wanted.
I had to sift through some bad offers in the process. I probably made some bad offers as well. But numerous times folks have found a middle ground with me... including Rondo2287 and Eja, two of the folks most vocal against my trade offers. It's a silly game. I have fun with it. Despite all the crazy trades, my team is still a bottom 4 squad and will probably stay there indefinitely. This team has performed inarguably worse since I took over and moved them to Bellevue.
You know who I haven't successfully made a trade with during that time, Champkind? You... but I can't feel too bad about it, because in the two years since I've been here you've completed exactly two trades. One in which you traded a waiver-wire player (Kostas Pampinkrapalow - 12fp) for Lou Williams (24fp) ..... Another in which you traded Brandon Knight (32fp) and Thad Young (30fp) for Dwight Howard (37fp) and Kemba Walker (34.4fp).
So unless you're getting a blatant overpay, it's a "lowball" in your eyes. I get it. Which explains why you were so insulted by my trade offer to you in March (three draft picks for Giannis) that you refused to even acknowledge it... even though the best of those 3 draft picks I offered you is about to land either Townes or Okafor, who I personally believe will have a better career than
Jabari Parker's future backup Giannis.
