What is the big deal about N-Kewerin Okoro? I mean I know nothing about him but by the look of it his not all that and may never be all that.

i think im the target of some ppl here, my players get criticized, my demands get criticized and my trades get criticized.
Anyways, here are my reasons to think the trade is reasonable.
1)
Paulisso had a monster TC.
At 20 years old and C B+ C+ B+ C B
He could very easily turn into a C A B- A C player. He had a great preseason and has played well in the regular season as well. I had no intention of dealing him until this deal came along.
2)
Claver for Prince is better for him in 2 ways
Firstly I take on an extra year of a 12.5M contract, taking me out of the FA hunt next year, and putting Mike in a good position to sign quality FA's.
Secondly, Claver is a better player than Prince and can still command a trade to a contending team. Prince cannot.
3)
The Lakers pick could be good. They are .500 right now and could very realistically be out of the playoff race. If this happens, dealing them back their pick could be very valuable.
I dont think this trade is vetoable, honestly.

You are not a target by me...I voice my opinion in a lot of trade threads, thats just how i am....Mike sucks as a GM i have no clue why ducky let him back in the league to be honest.

Who made you god of GMs? I'm not at all a bad GM. I have been GM of the year in three sims and came in 2nd place in UOSL1. Plus I got fired in the first place for not being on here that much. it had nothing to do with my GMing. Plus my team were alway in the playoff but maybe two season and that was just becuse i was rebuilding so what ever. |

It's not a good deal for Phoenix, but it's not veto-worthy either.
This is why new GM's should be put on trade bans - Mike even said he knows nothing about Okoro. It's stupid to deal him just cause he doesn't know anything about him.

Yeah, this is a veto
Why would you trade a player if you can't look at his player page and see what his background is when you're new to a league?

i knew/know as much about Okoro as mike. When this draft occurred I wasnt even thinking about young guys. The only research I did was checking his ratings when he was drafted. I also saw that he actually had a weird/bad TC last time and had his inside scoring decrease while only improving in rebounding.

I do not understand why you would deal a player with such ratings at that age with A potential, EVEN IF, you know nothing about it. I am not sure if this trade should go through, i think it is pretty bad.
I am surprised you did not take my offer mike on a smaller scale, different players, but it would have helped IMO.
Also my pick will suck.
