Accept. I rarely move even my 2nd round picks, but I have another one to play with this year and the one I'm moving here should be the later of the two. In addition, I am up against it already with roster #'s even looking towards the next couple of seasons. So, gets me a badass bench dude for relatively cheap. Indy needs to shed at least one player to get down to 15 - I believe that was his primary motivation. Pleasure dealing with you both, Jerry West & Larry Bird

Walt is correct. This trade would take place of releasing a player. By trading Dedmon, I’m getting an asset in return. Maybe find a gym in the 2nd round.
I accept.

Pleasure dealing with you both, Jerry West & Larry BirdTechnically, this is not possible as the 3-team trade should not been finalized. Cleveland still has Dedmon, not Indy. Indy should release one player not included on the 3-team trade first before that trade takes place and the this one (which I wouldn't as Indy doesnt need to shed a player by then). Or idk, that's what I thought should be. Not up to me tbh. Just following what has been written. Peace out!

That’s what this trade does.

That’s what this trade does. You technically don't own Dedmon yet unless you release two players not included on the 3-team trade for the 3-team trade to be finalized.

Allen Iverson is correct, but I'll allow it on this occasion since it's less complex than re-submitting the trade again.

Also worth mentioning that this trade means Minnesota needs to cut a player Frank Jackson and Edmond Sumner may not have been created in the database yet, but they are nevertheless active players on the TWolves roster.

Thanks Ian Noble , has you should know since I also approached you, we have been working on finding a place for Dedmon even before the previous trade was accepted, so that our roster would never go over 15 players. Unfortunately since this isn't our actual job like real life GM's, and we don't a phone line ready to call each other whenever needed, it's hard to make everything happen on the same go. People aren't always ready to answer, not to mention most of us don't even share time zones. We'll try to make sure we work all the details before the trade is passed next time tho.

Wait. Let me side with AI here. Allowing small technical glitches like this are not a good precedent for the future. Thus, IND should be forced to cut another player because that is how the way it should have worked. This is not even bending the rules but a clear violation of the rules because as AI have said, Dedmon is not own by IND.
Why is he getting a 2nd for a player that he doesn't own? Yes, the player involved is not a star and it is not as if he doesn't have players that are worth cutting. That still should not be the reason why this clear violation of the rules should be allowed.
If you will allow this to happen, why can't I do it in the future?
