From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

RealGM.com is a website created in 2000. The site was originally a basketball site but has since included NHL, MLB, and NFL. Marcus Allen is a notable contributor to the site's NFL forum[citation needed]. The website is close to the top 5000 most visited sites according to Alexa,[1] as of May 24, 2007. The site is noted for its trade checker,[2] a system developed to analyze hypothetical NBA trades according to the collective bargaining agreement. A professional version of the Trade Checker has been licensed to several NBA teams.[3]
