    The most rumors so far this season is November 19.
    https://www.hoopsrumors.com/

    Who would best fit with Rockets?
    E’Twaun Moore, Kent Bazemore, Wesley Matthews, James Johnson, Trevor Ariza, Solomon Hill, Julius Randle, Milos Teodosic (Clippers) and T.J. McConnell (Sixers), DeMarre Carroll, ......

    1. Pelicans offered Nikola Mirotic, E’Twaun Moore and a first-round pick to the Timberwolves for Jimmy Butler, but Wolves also want unprotected 2022 first-round pick and was resisted.

    2. O’Connor identifies Kent Bazemore, Wesley Matthews, James Johnson, Trevor Ariza, and DeMarre Carroll Solomon Hill, Julius Randle are available.

    3. No Untouchables In Trade Talks For Wizards.

    So by your estimation the only reasonable move is to trade for LBJ, Durant, or Steph Curry?

    So basically all the wizards players can be had in a trade? Part of me wants to see them go full rebuild, trade away everyone for young talent/draft picks and see what shakes out. Kinda speaks to how terrible their chemistry is that they actually have quite a few players other teams would want at the right price. Wall, Beal, Porter, Morris, Oubre, even Jeff Green, Austin Rivers and Satoransky might help other teams in the right situation. Seems like most teams staring at a rebuild have like one, maybe two guys to trade away to start the process. Look at Charlotte: Kemba Walker, and then...??? (assuming they aren't willing to trade away bridges and monk as they are the "youth movement").

    Bazemore makes the most sense.
    I like Crowder. Don't think Jazz will trade him to conference rival.
    Wilson Chandler is another on Morey watching list. Same thing, don't think Nuggets will trade him to conference rival.
    Not like Jazz or Nuggets need Knight

    You have to look at all of them because you don't have enough assets. Morey is human being.

    If you are able to dump Knight for any of them, you should be exciting.

    You sound like someone whose living on food stamps while complaining Vic and Anthony's is charging too much for a ribeye steak.

    If you know Morey is a human being, then why would you still think this list other than Ariza is making any sense and how :

    1. can the Rockets has anything to offer?
    2. can Morey to convince our owner to pay more tax with this kind of upgrade?

    Crowder is not available.
    Wilson Chandler is still solid, 76ers.

    You can compare Wizards talents to Raptors?

    I don't understand Bazemore. Not a very good three point shooter and is averaging the same points wise as Gordon. Not sure what the appeal is. Need a power forward like Otto or Mirotic who would be great on our team but doubt we could get him. As for Otto if we are going get a contract that steep might as well go for Beal.

    No i mean compared to other teams that would make sense to rebuild. Raptors definitely not rebuilding.

    Gordon for Mirotic straight up, the same age.

    But Mirotic asks too much money next summer, that is the reason he is available.

    Not enough assets for Beal.

    Also,

    for whoever suggested the Pelicans will start a fire sales,

    first please explain why Alvin Gentry is not on the hottest seat right now and why he will want to give up first, and if the first priority for the Pelicans is to keep AD in NO, why the hell will they want to trade away their valuable players?

    Just because you want a player(s), doesn't mean they are actually available.

    Oh, Chandler is with Sixers now. That make it even less likely since they traded their starting PF for SF/SG.

    Tillman can't afford any of these guys. @Carl Herrera . . . He can't even pay Carmelo to go away and he's making veteran's minimum. He's waiting on Carmelo to find a team to trade him to(Dec. 15) or claim him on waivers. The Tillman will have to repeat this process for when/if he wants to get rid of Michael Carter-Williams.
