    I still think RedNation should accept Billups and Horford for Nash and Landry to make the salaries work.

    I would have to empty my bench. I think it could work with the help of RedNation.

    This salary cap has been a MAJOR issue lol.

    Should've made the rule clearer that all trades must not put you over the cap. If its over, trade is revoked.

    Regardless, downgrading from Deng to Batum is something I'm not at all interested in. If it comes to it, I'm fine with the trade being revoked.

    If he thinks Horford + Gordon = Manu, then ya he should. Honestly, it is a lot more fair than the last trade. RedNation love's Manu though.

    problem is, those of us who were under the cap spent our remaining space on more expensive players toward the end of the draft. That makes it hopeless for people currently over the cap. lol

    RedNation what's the deal? Chauncey and Horford for Nash and Landry or trade revoked altogether?

    I don't see how you are calling your own trade lopsided... the one YOU PROPOSED. I'm sure we can wor something out to get that 5 mil back. If as rr14 said, both teams should stay under the cap, how would that be possible in our case if you were already over? If spoon can't come up with something we'll see what happens

    I'm sure we can't work something out to get the 5 mil back that wouldn't be even more unfair to me. I'm just going to consider the trade off altogether.

    :eek:Are you kidding me. the trade that saves you 3.5 mil is unfair for me not you. I'm sure that extra 1.5 mil would just be more in your favor. You would just decline because now you have the feeling that the trade was lopsided.

    When you traded me Billups and put me over the cap, I didn't ask to nullify the trade like a little ***** I traded his *** back to you for worse picks lol

    Exactly. What am I supposed to do. It's not like he was under the cap so any trade I did would result in him being over the cap...

    Could you make sure to use the 2010-11 Deron on Utah?
    His new Jersey numbers are terrible... Also, he will be healed from that injury next year and should look more like the Deron in Utah.

    I tried simming some games with Jersey Deron, and averaged around 6 points a game:rolleyes:

    Ok. 3 teams per account is annoying though. It would be easier 5-6 people made whatifsports accounts so we can have all 16 teams on the site simultaneously.

    Registratoin is really easy

    torque are you willing to work around rondo, odom + prince for Nash, Garnett and players to make salaries work?
