I accept.

[Detroit Pistons]

Im sorry but I dont even need an explanation from Denver, I reject. Dirk is arguably the best PF in the league. Aldridge is okay but is never going to be a "star" and Felton is an average PG. Not enough for Dirk, not at all.

[Denver Nuggets]

I accept, I think the one thing your missing DET is how badly my team is doing right now, and combine that with Dirks next year being a player option he'll most likely opt out and I'll loss him for nothing. I also think Felton will thrive in D'Antonies system

THIS.

I agree with DEN (on his DEFENSE), now with Dirk's contract being a PO he may opt out of his contract and go to a team that gives him a "better chance" to win a championship. In that regard he loses Dirk for nothing, atleast with this moves he gets a nice PG and a all-star caliber PF in return for Dirk.

[Boston Celtics]

I am confused by one thing. You are calling Dirk's option a player, but you listed it as a team.

Because it's ALL messed up!

My 2 cents, I think LA should add his pick but I don't think it's too bad. I think Aldridge maybe a stud, he carried Portland to 6 against the Suns without BRoy. Felton has a chance to be a stud in NY with the Knicks and Mike D/Amare, and we all know DEN loves to rebuild...he's done a lot worse. I'm not accepting it because I'd like to hear what others have to say and a ruling on Dirk's last year.

Again, we know it's messed up, but it's been that way from day 1. In my opinion there is no reason to change it now. Changing options on people now, would essentially be like pulling the rug out from underneath them.

dirk is getting stolen in this deal. Felton is not good, he had plenty of time to develop in cha and never did, as for Aldrige I like his game but he will NEVER be Dirk, as for the options I agree we just keep them as they were

[sniper]

I decline, Denver doesn't even get Dirk's full value. Aldridge is a good start, but Felton is just a mediocre point guard and Vlad a scrub with a semi-big contract.

[Sacramento Kings]

reject form me also

[New York Knicks]

I'm hesitant here. The whole "Dirk may leave after this year" argument is obviously not going to work right now, with the current decision to keep him as a TO.

Also, panicking after 5 games about your team is way too early. Teams often take some time to click.

Vlad Rad's contract just hurts that side of the deal (i know he needs to be there for salary purposes)...but yea he's paid a lot for not a great player.

And, even if Felton does blow up, you gotta resign him, and he could choose to not come back to your team as well.

I'm also not the hugest Aldridge fan, though he is a nice player. Not sure I see a ton of growth left in him though.

I'll reject.
