In the sports world trades are a key topic because it is usually the only way a team can get better mid-season. In most cases fans have trade ideas that seam cool or seam super beneficial for both teams. An amazing way to check if your trades are a good idea for your franchise or even if the rumored trades would be a good idea is on the video game versions of your favorite sports. So, for basketball NBA 2K, for NFL Madden, etc. in these games they allow you to take thing like a team’s salary cap into account as well as the value different teams have for a certain player. In some games it also will check with your team chemistry as well as how certain players at the same position react to the trade. This is important because some of the best insider for the respective leagues are asked about how different teams value players as well as the teams themselves. I think that this is a good way to check things so that you can see how the salary, and everything is affected by your move. In order to do this in NBA 2K you just push the NBA start today button and then it takes you into a franchise mode starting around a week or so ago and this will allow you to control your team. Then go to trade and locate the players you are looking to trade, then the game will tell you if it is a good trade for your team and if the other team is interested in it or not. It will also list your cap room after the deal as well as your number of players. I have used this for a number of trades most recently trying to figure out how the heat could acquire Andre Iguodala, if you want to read more about how they acquired him in real life you can check out one of my other blogs where I go into the whole deal.
