      I’d definitely recommend texting them first asking if they’re open to trades, and then trying to do research on their team to find their weaknesses, and offer ways to help them (AKA finesse them in trades by getting a better player in 2 for 1 trades but have them believe you’re helping them)

    Dan thank you so much for showcasing and advocating for trades that indicate respect for your fellow managers. I am so sick and tired of guys (yes, most of you are men) who get off on “fleecing” others or making fun of managers who don’t necessarily make the same decisions as those in the double-platinum-onyx leagues. And I know most of you aren’t like that and are respectful but there’s enough of you out there where it’s noticeable and, honestly, a detriment to the community. Ok rant over.

Historically in 9cat Tobias finishes higher than Giddey, and this year they're currently kinda even. If you think Giddey will finish Top-40, then yes that would be a win. Otherwise...
