    understand NBA contracts? Also what are some sites that have accurate contract information?

    Any others can chime in too. I'd like to make informed decisions and suggestions for trades, so the more info I know, the better.

    Thanks.

    I'm glad you are trying to learn, instead of spouting of nonsense like a lot of people on CF.

    Also for trade ideas you want to check out and make sure they work, the ESPN trade machine is quick and easy

    http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine

    However keep in mind that they dont always keep everything up to the CBA rules for timing of when trades can happen etc.

    For instance, Houston couldn't trade with Miami right now for a Dwight Howard for Lebron James deal even though the trade machine says you can.

    http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=pwtzsfp

    But if you know the rules of trades and when you can trade with teams, its an easy way to do the math, and make sure deals could happen in a very high-level way.

    If you're good with reading contract language, here's where you can pull up the actual CBA contract as well.

    I suggest here:
    bbs.clutchfans.net

    It's a bulletin board system forum for all things Rockets.
    While there, a guy named BimaThug and a bunch of other smart dudes will answer your questions!!

    :grin:

    The information is handy for everyone who wants to know about the subject...& yes this site does allow PM.

    Sorry if I sound a bit angry...First round blues.
