How is Bynum a bad contract? I am confused by that statement.... anyway.... I will not be making any hasty decisions and I appreciate the offers currently but I really feel the majority of them are short changing the value of either player. Most people have offered a replacement who can score 20 pts at SG or SF and then 2nd rd picks or someone else who is a bench guy etc...
I would like a deal if it doesn't have a ton of talent in players to have a lotto pick or multiple 1sts in some sort of package.
I will only move them if I get a deal I like so there could be a chance they don't get moved. I don't need to deal them just to make a trade.
Thanks, Julius/Lakers

I offered multiple first and you didn't seem to want that either. I am pretty sure this is a fishing block (which is fine) and I doubt either guy moves unless you are offered above their value.
Just my opinion.

Why would I make a trade if I felt I was getting less then at least their value? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose of it helping me?
Also nets, this was your PM.... If it can be done around Azubuike or Weaver and many picks then I am interested.
I don't like Azu or Weaver... and you said many picks, how is that an offer of 1sts? If I don't see something I like player wise that works with the picks then I am not going to say give me 2 1st rd picks for him

Didn't say that you shouldn't get at least their value but I don't see you taking a deal unless it is above their value, which if you can get is also fine but that is a fishing block.
I am not sure how many picks does not imply 1sts? And if you are willing to do a deal for some 1sts as you said then why would your counter not be:
OK, I want the following picks. Instead your answer was that you did not see any players you wanted from my team which is fine but like I said I don't see you doing a deal for picks.

I consider a trade block to be where a team puts a player.... entertains offers and if they get an offer they like... the pull the trigger, if not the keep him. That isn't fishing, it is a trade block, but at least this has generated some additional league activity

Now that you know by many picks I don't mean seconds send me a PM if you are more interested then before.

Thanks, Julius/Lakers $9,300,000 $10,830,000 $11,740,000 $12,640,000 seemed pretty pricey for me...I can take sheldon instead, Dirk is an upgrade, and I can change my 2nds to a 2013 1st and a 2012 2nd + 2011 2nd

I don't think Dirk is an upgrade and Bynum can only get better at his young age. Dirk will only get worse the older he gets.
