    I could go for CJ Miles. 57% from left corner 3 on 28 attempts in a 6'6" frame. 38% above the
    break on 138 attempts.

    Is there any way the Rockets could get Malcolm Brogdon (Mil) without giving up a first?

    Would love either of these.

    Edit: Didn't realize Williams was only 6'1". Would prefer Nick Young due to height.

    Maybe for Capela...? Other than that i don't think we have a single asset for the Bucks tbh, Brogdon is doing good and i think he'll be an important piece for them going forward.

    Yeah, I was impressed with him when we played them. His play making/decision making seemed
    good. He shoots well from Left/Right corners & above the break 3-pointers (small sample sizes).
    He was a 2nd rd pick. DRtg is noted as 104 on NBA.com/stats....111 on basketball-reference.com
    (per 100 possessions). Asst% is 23% compared to EGo 14%. TOV% was about the same for both
    Gordon & Brogdon (Gordon 10% & Brogdon 15%). Too bad KJ & 2nd rd pick wouldn't work.

    Thanks for those numbers. Yeah, no chance we can get him for that package but yeah, i think he's just not available, the guy seems a nice steal so far, great contract too...

    IMO Brogan was THE steal of 2016 draft. Great effort, nba body, super high BB IQ, versatile defender, 4 tool player. Just not a great athlete.

    And arguably better than Ennis right now. Ennis has about a 25% TOV% at approx the same usage as Brogdon. Beverley is about 14% TOV%.@about 14% Usage.

    I prefer trade scenario with either the 76ers or Magic (w/tweaks).

    Brewer, KJ, rights to Llull plus 1st for Nerlens Noel & Robert Covington is the ideal trade IMO. Then fill other spots as follows:

    Beard-Splash-Gabe York
    Bev-Jamaal Franklin*
    Ariza-Robert Covington
    Ryno-Smoove-Dekker
    Nerlens Noel-Capela-Harrell-Nene

    *Franklin could could be the next Bev but at 6'5 with just under 7 ft wingspan.

    Or go with my revised Magic trade - Brewer, Dekker, Ennis plus 1st for Aaron Gordon and Hezonja. Roster as follows:

    Beard-Splash-Gabe York
    Bev-Jamaal Franklin
    Ariza-Aaron Gordon*
    Ryno-Smoove-Wiltjer
    Capela-Larry Sanders-Harrell-Nene

    Another athletic long lock down defender at 3 to pressure Durant, Kawhi, Lebron. A GORDON also adds another ball handler, facillitator, passer who can dribble worth a damn.

    Hezonja would also back up 2 or 3.

    Do you think this kind of basketball the Rox are playing is championship basketball? Good to win everything?
    I don't think so - no one likes to rebound, there is no rim defense (Capela is too flimsy and always looks lost out there), Harden is a turnover machine, there is no post-up player.
    Plus nowadays even their 3-point shooting has gone south. They are MISSING (I call it wasting) 25-30 shots per game. Can they get closer to the basket instead and look for layups/fouls?
