I accept this trade.
I give up two first rounders, and Bismack Biyombo - who, let's be honest, was just eating up salary on my team.
I get Eric Bledsoe and a second in return. I see Bledsoe getting a big bump after his breakout season with the Suns. The main reason I wanted him is because of his cheap salary. I understand that he will be on the final season of his contract, but I'm hoping that his presence will contribute to attracting marquee free agents.
I still have 2 first rounders in this upcoming draft, and I get to complete a backcourt of Conley/Bledsoe/Jackson, which is pretty strong. I also actually GAIN cap space in this trade, giving me a grand total of $30,324,291 in Free Agency, most in the league.
With 30 mil in cap, 2 2014 1st Rounders, a backcourt of Conley/Bledsoe/Jackson, and a bench of quickly developing prospects - Noel, Henson, and Middleton, I'm hoping to jump up to contention in the weaker Eastern Conference and devalue the shit out of the 2015 1st rounder I gave up for Conley.

I get some good value for Bledsoe in this trade, so I accept.
I get a 1st rounder that I can send in the potential deal to New York. I also get a 1st rounder I can keep that should end up being somewhere in the lottery. Biyombo looks like he is not going to develop the way people thought he would, but he does have a team option for next year which makes him a $3 mil expiring. I can potential combine him with Tyler Hansborough and have $7 mil in expiring contracts to offer a team to find my shooting guard for the playoffs.

I don't think you're allowed to put contingencies on traded picks

Yes you have to choose which one(pick ) before the trade is completed.

Charlotte needs to cut a player.
