    got to take the way the teams play in to context and where they get their shots from.

    Evans has a better fg percentage in his career than EG. He is actually shooting the ball better than EG this season in a down season. Evans has shot better than Gordon the past 3 seasons

    and he provides way more play making at more positions

    Remember, he also said MULTIPLE trades. Looping in a third team, or doing it across multiple transactions seems plausible.

    @justtxyank you're right, Holiday can't be aggregated for this season so...

    Man, if Gordon is involved in talks, I hope his knee tweak doesn't interfere

    Can't tell if you guys are trolling or legit don't know who David Locke is. David Locke is the play by play commentator for the Utah Jazz. He is also the founder and host of Locked on NBA. If you've ever listened to Locked on Rockets with Ben DuBose you've listened to one of the many podcasts in his podcast empire.

    I'd consider him extremely reputable and likely credible.

    How would this guy even get such detailed information considering how tight lipped our front office is. This seems more like throwing darts at the wall and seeing if something sticks.

    I don’t care if the “ship has sailed” I need athreeza back in my life. Not a player like him. Him.

    Get it done Mary.

    It's highly unlikely to happen imo.

    Not all FOs are tight-lipped and neither are agents necessarily close-lipped.

    Only if the trade involves the jazz, does this guy know what is up. So does that mean the rockets/jazz are about to make a trade?

    That's why I said House is better than Holiday. Holiday doesn't have any upside. He is a decent defender, who works hard, but he has a slight frame. He can't be aggregated. Chriss plus a 2nd for Holiday would be okay, but I would rather have House back. Satoransky unfortunately is hard to acquire.

    Damn that fit was terrible. At least I’m glad they tweaked it and made it fit better

    I don't know. Maybe by being around the league for decades and building relationships that whole time? Maybe by having a podcast empire that fields a sports journalist in every NBA arena? Those would be my guesses.

    This dude isn't some shock jockey with a history of making wild claims and citing multiple sauces.
