Harden to Morey: Get me help at guard

Morey bite at 2-3M

 

Why trade Patterson or Morris when they weren't at their peak?

 

I really don't know who I would like and is available but it's a position of weakness. Love Bev and his tenacity but he is not a playmaker and has become injury prone.

Get it done Morey

 

If Lin comes back, I think it'll be for 4-6 million a year.

 

If Morey even offers Lin the min he should be fired. A 37yo proved he is a better PG than that guy.

 

I've watched some of his games and he has a good feel for the game and is fairly athletic for a 6'2" ish PG bnut he reminds me a lot of Rocky Rubio. Flashy at times but not a particularly good shooter from deep range. Considering he would demand a significant contract to be lured from Madrid I don't think he is worth the time. Morey needs to go with a proven veteran and draft a PG w/ high upside that can develop, regardless of the small window for Dwight. Harden is still young so Morey needs to quit wasting time surrounding him with scrubs and waiting for a miracle, or else Harden might walk when his contract is up.

 

Carl don't scare me like that

 

Ty Lawson
Deron Williams
Kemba Walker

Those are the only PGs I would want Houston to get or go after, I would still re-sign Bev but he needs to be the backup Point if this team wants to win a title IMO.

 

I don't understand why the Raptors would even offer up Lowry. Granted, they sucked in the playoffs. But it wasn't like he was all to blame.

 

Lol yes lets trade for the worst contract in the league!

 

C'mon now. Lin can be a good finisher and three point shooter, for the right price he is a good piece to come off the bench. Just keep the man out of crunch time situations.

The only thing that Lin ruins is this forum, but if he could help lead us to the championship then I would sacrifice the quality of content here for a better chance at title number 3.

 

I think this is an interesting article discussing possibilities at the PG position + strengths/weaknesses/likely fit of each.

Discussed: Rondo, Lawson, Gogi, CJ Watson, Lin (sort of), Rivers (sort of), Cole, Knight, DWill, & Jennings.

 

I dont think harden is dissing bev as much as asking for another playmaker

 

I think Corey Joseph could be a Kyle Lowry pick-up...think he should be added!

Played behind Parker, championship pedigree, solid D, and shot 36% from 3

 

Thanks that was a good read. Jennings would be pretty interesting to have here. I would absolutely cry if Morey tried to get Rondo. He would just destroy our team

 

This series of tweets tickled me....

Jennings is kind of interesting, but it feels like an anti-Morey move, despite the fact that he's probably undervalued.

 

We don't want to break the bank at our PG spot! I'd rather go after LMA or Love with our $$ and assets.

Pry Joseph, nick Johnson, draft pg ( jones or grant)

Lull back-up Harden at 2 spot

 

Joseph would totally be a Morey move

 

I wonder what it would take to land Jennings. Detroit is obviously going with Reggie as their guy at PG.
