Should we try to sign both Brook Lopez and Eric Gordon?

If the Rockets can get rid of K brick's expiring contract and amnesty Scola's contract they should have enough to go after those guys. Before saying this will never happen let me explain myself. The Nets are dead set on trying to team up Douche Willams and Dwight together, so they will try to wait another year to sign him. So now you force the Nets hands and make them make a choice. Willams will take his time getting wine and dined, so what Morey should do at the very beginning of free agency is offer Lopez the max making the Nets think long and hard of matching offer and losing the cap space to sign Dwight while other teams are after Willams. I know Lopez has been injured this year but he was pretty healthy the other years and this is just the bump in the orad for him. He was doing very well the couple of games he played before injurying himself again. 7 footers don't grow on trees. 7 footers will post skills tht Brook has don't come often either. Dwight wishes he had a post game like Brook's.

Gordon is easier to explain. His stock is at the lowest because he is injury prone and has missed all but one game this year. But there is no denying is very talented. He's a great two way player that can give you offense and play tough defense. He would be a max player if he could stay healthy. So I say he sign him to a near max contract, around 55 to 65 million. The leauge would be wary of matching an offer to player tht is injury prone plus that won't know if the new owner ofthe team would wantto take on that contract. I know this would be a risky signing, but with the Rockets luck of not getting superstars, imo this would be the best route to go to rebuild and compete with the elite finally. The worst thing that can happen is those teams match but you won't know until you try. Lopez, Gordon, add Lowry with is cheap contract, Lull, D Mo and Patterson? That would be sick. I hope you read this Morey.

 

What else can Morey do? He tried for years to get star players but can't. These two player's stock is low right now . Like the stupid words of Dwight Howard. "You have to roll the dice."

 

These are star players. They just haven't reach their potenal yet. Joe Johnson wasn't a star with the Suns until the Hawks pryed him away from them.

 

The Pistons got stupid and impatient that year. They couldn't sign anybody and instead of waiting the following year they signed to above average role players. Gordon and Lopez have star potenial.
