Did it to improve my bench. West can play but Okafor is the perfect backup big, especially with Anderson's deficiencies.

Tyler Zeller is nice.

omer51 · 04-13-2012, 06:37 AM

I'm all in for the jewelry.

Yeah, I get that. I got that when you came for Melo and started the message 'without CP3 and Davis'

**Dre** · 04-13-2012, 06:52 AM

Yeah I say I hate getting lowballed but sometimes you gotta just be greedy

**Dre** · 04-13-2012, 06:53 AM

BTW is it a middle eastern thing to have the commas next to the second word ,like this

omer51 · 04-13-2012, 06:57 AM

nope. innocent mistake.

shmip · 04-13-2012, 08:40 AM

really nice deal for both, zeller(should be good enough to be a starter) is younger and fits well with BJ plans.

**BlakeJesus** · 04-13-2012, 09:05 AM

Zeller is probably a bench big at this point (though I may be starting him

), he's got some nice qualities though and he's about as cheap as you can get (4 years too). He was a nice throw in for me, gave me something long term to work with.

I would have liked to get a 1st rounder back for Okafor, but I didn't really like any of the other deals I had out there. So to compensate for not getting a pick back, I got rid of some contracts I wasn't interested in. Glen Davis was an autopick, and he's signed to about 6.5 million for this year and the next two years. I didn't want anything to do with that, so that's probably about as valuable as getting a late 1st back.

I picked up about 18.5 million in expiring in this deal, and I have another 15 or something like that expiring on my own roster. Should be able to throw some money around in free agency, plus I have two first rounders to work with. Let the rebuilding commence!

IF I win this year its like we'd be switching spots from last year. Crazy

**BlakeJesus** · 04-13-2012, 09:46 AM

Does that mean I'm going to get Anthony Davis?

**Dre** · 04-13-2012, 10:50 AM

Anthony D. Avis maybe
