After 2 seasons of discussing this very trade, here it is

Blazers Send
Bill Cartwright
Mark Eaton

Grizzlies Send
Bill Laimbeer
Herb Williams
Myron Jackson

Agreed. I set the limit at 400 messages on a trade and then I'll accept it

Even after 400 messages I'm not sure who wins this trade and will take the West this year.

Surprising move. Cartwright is the best player in the deal. I guess Blazers don’t think Eaton will hold up?

I like this move for the Nets.

For the Nets?! I guess Rockets thinks it hurt both teams

I'd say Eaton >> Herb so advantage Grizz.

Pretty neutral, except I agree with Craig that Eaton is the edge in this trade. SO win for Grizz.

I think Eaton is better this year, and I LOVE me some shot blocking. The D potential scared me a bit though and I need some more long term pieces around MJ instead of just patchwork like my current squad is. Not that Herb has a ton of value himself, but being a couple years younger than Eaton was attractive to me.

Those are my thoughts too. Eaton is a beast in the role he has

I also think Eaton is better than Herb which is why I did this deal, but I think Eaton is very one-dimensional. For all the benefits you get from shot blocking and defense he is absolutely horrid on offense and can't muster even 10 points. That being said, Herb is pretty efficient scorer and a good defender himself.

I thought my team's defense was horrid which is why I pulled this trade, but think it's fairly even honestly. Took a while to decide haha.

For me the kicker was Eaton was on a nice contract for year 2, along with the defense I mentioned above.

Done
