Good lord. You like a jaded ex. We all guys sitting at the bar talking hoops. How I feel anyway. Bball calls it and you don't. Yet you feel the need to stomp around like a 4 yr old. Dude, guy was right and I'm not proclaiming his status as an insider but as someone bringing productive ideas to the table for us to discuss simply based on track record. Outside of criticism, what you doing to promote the discussion? If his guess is predicated by research, it's more than you bring as intuition. 4 scrubs for a top 15 pg. All I'm seeing.
That's why I blocked him. He'd rather discuss me than the Rockets. Back to Jones. How about Danny Granger and a second rounder for Terrence? What about Granger/Dinwiddie for Terrence?
Saying you're an insider on a forum is like Kanye West saying he's the greatest rockstar of all time.
Probably true. That's why I've never claimed to be an insider. In fact, I've repeatedly said I'm not an insider. now, let's talk Rockets. What about Andrew Nicholson and a second rounder for Terrence? Nicholson has a nice stroke. Just needs confidence to shoot it. Second rounder should be a high second rounder. Can we do better?
That would be a HORRIBLE trade. Granger is garbage now. Jones isn't going anyplace unless we get another PF. We need him.
Horrible?? Here's Granger less than 7 months ago. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/Usm3EWG2qpw" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> If he's done, I'll take that done and raise you. Your off the bench stretch 4 is waiting. You'll never see Terrence pulling like that.....ever.
BBhollic, sorry if you've explained this before, but can you explain/point to Coon's CBA FAQ where the last year of Lawson's contract was allowed to be non-guaranteed?
He's done. He has no athleticism anymore. He's going to be 33 years old this year. He shot a meager 40% from the field last year and he's about to get cut from a terrible Pistons team. He's got nothing left. Jones > Granger it's not even close.
Sure. :_ones >>>> Granger. That's why we want a second rounder too. Put Granger out there in a wheelchair. He'll still pull 3's ten times more than Terrence will. And we need that 3-ball. Athleticism or 3-ball. We've got loads of athleticism. We need 3-ball.
What is Granger going to bring for us that Ariza, KJ McDaniels, Jones, etc can't already do and besides the 2nd rounder?
LOL We wouldn't be trading Granger for those guys. The question is what would Granger bring us that Terrence doesn't bring us? The answer is the 3-ball. Look, I'm not honed in on Granger here. But I think it's about fair value. A second and Granger or possibly Granger and Dinwiddie for Jones. Maybe Nicholson and a second? Maybe something else and a second. We need 2 things: Rebounding and 3-point shooting. Terrence gives us neither. Need to take advantage of whatever trade value he has left to get some of what we need and a second rounder to add to our stash for future trades.
I wasn't suggesting we should trade any of those players for Granger. I agree TJones would be our best bet to get a player that fills our needs and most likely next player to be dealt but we can probably do better than Granger/2nd/filler.
Terrance Jones isn't getting traded so stop it. Especially not for Danny Granger. We're loaded at both the 2 and 3. Lol we get lucky on one trade and now we think we're the trade God around here.
