I've admittedly overpaid and depleted my team.

I'm going the big three route, Wilt Bailey and Bianci + a bunch of garbage.

We'll see how it plays out.

We in the chat room think your team is the early American favorite.

I like the move for you - depth for talent.

Just need to find a way to replenish some depth.

I voted even...on the one hand, I got three starters for one, with each of us getting a pair of bench guys. Plus, the three starters I got are 24/25, so they will improve with age, meaning this could turn out being huge for me in the end.

On the other hand, unless I make some other moves, I'm likely still middle of the pack at best in Eurasia, while Toronto and his Big Three just jumped to the #1 contender spot (if he wasn't there before)...I think he'll take a title now over prolonged hopes over the next few years.

this trade is interesting to me because while i feel Berlin won in the sense that he got more value, this kind of turned Toronto into the early favorite for next season. so can you really say he "lost"?

I agree.

So if we factor in that I was looking for short term success (title in the next two seasons), while Berlin is building up his team for the future, I think it's safe to say this is even.

We both got what we want, even if it's not an equal exchange of talent.
