My only issue is the pick trades. I'll say it again- it's too easy for a team to sell picks for players in season, then turn around and recoup them back in the offseason. Essentially it's renting players and them turning them back in for your money back. It lacks strategy and takes away from the competitiveness IMO

See, I know you are referring to me, since you brought my team up in an earlier thread, and this isn't at all what I did. I acquired Lowry for a 3rd round pick EARLY in the year, when his value was in question. I also traded a 4th round pick for Robin Lopez, who I won't be keeping and I won't be trading. I traded Beal (who I acquired with Blake Griffin in the Chris Paul deal) for a 4th round pick this year.

Those were the only picks I moved. The only reason I was able to recoop picks this offseason is because I moved two HUGE pieces in Harden and Paul, thus giving me a surplus of keepable players.

Its not like i traded away a ton of picks for players and then swapped them back for the same picks in the offseason.
