I accept:
I needed to get rid of a player I don't wanna have to pay someone for nothing, I lose a 2011 and 2012 1sts, but gain a 3rd 1st for this year and am technically switching 2011's, in 2012 I don't want the picks really, and I have 2 2nds in '11, Harris is better than Westbrook and Tinsley is just a bench player, and I have a pretty decent bench.
The shitty salary is a price to pay in hopes of winning.

I think Westbrook is Way better then Harris like his young i think he can do way more for the thunder then Harris can and giving away draft picks for Harris i think the Nets win in the Trade by far

I know in RL Westbrook is better than Harris, but in every sim league I've been in with him I've done good, the current one my team has been: 5-1 I believe since I picked him up in a multi player trade: KG Baron Davis for Harris Timmy D

Blake, you have no reasoning behind your trades. You just accept whatever comes along. We've been discussing how we are supposed to deal with you specifically in the hidden Staff Section, because we know you'll devastate any team you control. Ironically it's been the two Trade Committee members who have been the vultures circling though, and I must admit I've been tempted too, because I know you'll accept any deal I throw at you.
The tougher we are on your trading, the longer it will be before OKC is reduced to nothing. The easier we are on your trading, the sooner you'll realize you've destroyed a team and you'll leave through boredom.
As the guy who runs this show, I just don't know what to do.

Blake is taking on an extra $4m in salary so he can downgrade (forget about the in-game ratings) from a potential all-star calibre PG who is younger to a PG who ran the worst team in the league last season who is older.
On top of that he's shipping his future away too, in the form of draft picks, in exchange for New Jersey's draft picks which are almost certain to be low picks if we judge by history.
Blake's first reasoning is that he doesn't want to release a player, so he's making this trade... so he can sign DJ Mbenga (rated 56)!

Having said that, to take a leaf from Henry Kissinger's stratagem, employing the "mad man" theory of War to trading circumstances would be morbidly fascinating, as I'm sure it was for him in South East Asia... hmm.
I accept ;D

Blake, you have no reasoning behind your trades. You just accept whatever comes along. Never did this, Harden and Green '13 1st OKC for Randolph and '10 1st MEM... Or this, Biendrins for Thabeet and New Jerseys 2010 pick... which wasn't terrible, I just didn't think it would help, I'm just saying NOT EVERY trade I get is accepted.

This deal is hilarious but Nets 2010 pick should be high even if he does magic with that team they are too bad right now.
I accept.

In all fairness, he offered this to me

If he can get Wall, Turner, Cousins, or Favors out of this trade it makes it somewhat better. One of those guys (NJ's 1st in '10) Harris
for
Westbrook
