Pelicans finalizing trade for Asik

[Mythrol]

Babe Ruth wore 3 - Ty Lawson; double nothing -00 Darrell Arthur

I don't think the Elway reference was Denver. I think it was a jersey number. Which just happens to be Jeremy Lin who the Rockets are trying to dump.

[RekeHavoc]

I agree Warren Moon is Houston, but just by guessing I doubt Houston would take back any guaranteed money. So Babbitt, Ely, and??? Maybe they do take back Ajinca

I agree about Lin. Makes sense

Also, would be pumped if we got Beverly, but I doubt it.

[sleepingbunch]

I don't post much, but I love codes.

Here's my thoughts...I think all of the players listed could be pelicans players that we need to dump for it to work.

I'm pretty sure that the TD, XP, TD, XP + TD, XP, Repeat means 42, which most likely means Ajinca. That was a great catch by the previous poster, and it completely makes sense.

I agree that the two teams are Houston and Milwaukee (US Senator). I have no idea what the blanks are.

I think the rest are

Babe Ruth - Asik or Brian Roberts
Elway = Ely?
Nothing = Aminu??
Double Jet Li = 1 + 1 = 2 #2 - Darius Miller.

[goat gorilla]

TD, XP, TD, XP + TD, XP, Repeat* could be the key for the names below it.

XP could stand for expiring. Idk I could be just confusing myself.

[Mythrol]

I don't think they take back any guaranteed contracts. There's a 3rd team the Bucks involved. They will get our 1st for taking Lin. Maybe Dell also talked them into giving up another asset for the 1st.

[RekeHavoc]

Just to be this out there. Brandon Knight is number 11 for the Bucks and Johnny o'Bryant is number 2

[RekeHavoc]

So can we say that the Warren Moon and the three blanks before the comma are the three unguaranteed contracts Houston gets?

[bustah]

TD, XP, TD, XP + TD, XP, Repeat*

US Senator, Warren Moon Blank Blank Blank, Blank Blank Elway Nothing Double Jet Li Babe Ruth


42 - Ajinca (Timberwolves won't give up Love unless they get Wiggins or some sort of decent trade)
US Senator - Rubio
Warren Moon - played for Minnesota Vikings and the Houston Oilers (#1) [Alexey Shved | Isaiah Canaan]
Elway - Denver (#7) [J.J Hickson]
Nothing/Nothing Double - (#0) [Aminu?] / (#00) [Darrell Arthur]
Double Jet-Li - (#2/11) ??
Babe Ruth - (B.R) Brian Roberts?

But where does Omer Asik land in this? Pretty sure I read somewhere Lin is being traded to Philly so cancel him out.

Pels, Wolves, Rockets, Nuggets trade

Rubio to Rockets?

Idk I'm off to bed too late for this haha

[redrum]

blank blank blank ,,, Al-Farouq Aminu

[Mythrol]

Wait. For some reason I was thinking we couldn't sign Miller and trade him without losing our MLE but he would be the same as Roberts. We just didn't extend the QA. Should still have Bird's Rights, right?

So that would make S&T Aminu, S&T Miller, Ajinca, Ely, Babbitt. That covers Asik's cap assuming Aminu gets anywhere near what he was previously.

So my guess is:

Bucks Get Lin, Aminu, Miller, Ajinca plus cash and our 1st.
Rockets Get Cap Space, Ely, Babbitt (they could technically go to Bucks too if they cared)
Pelicans Get Asik. Keep MLE / BAE.


MM, send me a private message if I'm right. I won't tell.

[ramsters60]

Just to be this out there. Brandon Knight is number 11 for the Bucks and Johnny o'Bryant is number 2

And Ilyosova wore #7 as did Elway...

[RekeHavoc]

So that would make S&T Aminu, S&T Miller, Ajinca, Ely, Babbitt. That covers Asik's cap assuming Aminu gets just a slight amount.

So my guess is:

Bucks Get Lin, Aminu, Miller, Ajinca plus cash, and our 1st.
Rockets Get Cap Space, Ely, Babbitt (they could technically go to Bucks too if they cared)
Pelicans Get Asik. Keep MLE / BAE.


MM, send me a private message if I'm right. I won't tell.

That looks pretty solid, my only question is why would Aminu and Darius want to sign with the Bucks. I could see maybe Aminu, I just don't know. It seems like a pretty solid trade though, I just don't think we S&T Darius, but that's just my guess

That makes sense to me with the blanks - 3 blanks for the bucks, and 2 for the rockets. I really think MM was just telling us who the Pelicans would be sending out in the trade.

I'm still confused about whether the Elway hint is for Ely or Lin. Would this work if Lin wasn't involved? That would be 3 players to the bucks plus a 1st, and 2 to the Rockets.

Also, what would the bucks be giving up in the trade?

[Mythrol]

Because we tell Aminu and Miller both that we aren't going to bring them back and here's a team that will take them. Aminu you can tell him we will give you 7.5% raises because of Bird's Rights. Miller I think does it because he just wants a guaranteed contract and to stay in the league. If he doesn't accept this odds are he's stuck in D-League this year and maybe forever. Far more money taking a guaranteed contract even on the Bucks.

Convinced me! I'm in

I don't think MM listed either non guaranteed contract. Why would he put Ely up there but not Babbitt? Babbitt is No. 8 and I don't see the fit. I think he was giving the main pieces of the trade. The guaranteed contracts.

Also haven't really been any Amimu rumors lately (I feel like someone was interested earlier in free agency) would make sense if he's already signed with Bucks.

[RekeHavoc]

Do you understand the beginning line?

[Mythrol]

Do you understand the beginning line?

What beginning line?

The "TD, XP, TD, XP + TD, XP, Repeat" part?

6,1,6,1 + 6,1, [Repeat]

6,1,6,7,1 6,1,6,7,1??? Maybe?

42 Maybe? Ajinca

That's how we got Ajinca.

This seems legit, I hope khris middleton is somehow included the Buck have Jabri and Giannis and he's the odd man out.

Sorry was trying to edit the post before you saw it.

That's how we got Ajinca.

I'm an outsider. First post. Let's see.

I think this is the answer: http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=kvkbern

My reasoning?

TD, XP, TD, XP + TD, XP, Repeat

6+1, 6+1 + 6+1= 21 * 2=

42= Kevin Love


At top because most important move.

Blank Blank Blank, Blank Blank = 3 in, 2 out?


US Senator= Rubio

Warren Moon= 1= Shved

Elway= 7= Lin

Nothing= Gordon (nothing lost)

Double Jet Li= 11= Jrue Holiday

Babe Ruth= 3= Asik
