At that point I'm no longer sure it's smart to make this trade unless you can guarantee you are keeping Ariza and Mbah a Moute.
I would hate to lose tucker and ariza they really defended well and tucker made some clutch 3's in time when we need them
I believe we can package Tucker and Gordon to get it done without Ryno, maybe have to throw in Nene but not sure
I think you're wrong, unless things have changed since BimaThug's salary cap article. http://rockets.clutchfans.net/11206/houston-rockets-salary-cap-2018-offseason/
No, that would not work. How do you figure you can change out Anderson who stands to make $20 million and replace him with Tucker who stands to make ~$8 million and it still works out the same? Doesn't make any sense at all.
From Bima's Article: Any trade for LeBron will need to include Anderson or Gordon, possibly both. (For those trying to add up salaries, the Rockets will need to send out at least $26,548,568 if they consummate a trade prior to July 1, or at least $28,406,375 if they make a trade after July 1.) If Anderson is not included, then any trade will need to include Gordon, Tucker and a whole bunch of smaller salaries. If Anderson is included, he (along with potentially significant assets) may need to be sent to a third team. Gordon could possibly headline the package going to the Cavs.
Agreed and I think Ariza is gone too in my scenario. I just dont see him coming off the bench to spell LeBron. Luc would for sure of course. Ariza is capable of getting $10-12 M per on the open market, way too steep for us. He may be gone anyways though regardless. I just don't see a scenario with us acquiring LeBron without sending out 2 picks and without getting a 3rd team involved. Cavs aren't taking Ryno IMO. Odds here look slim now. LA has the cap space for 2 max deals, LeBron has 2 mansions already out there, his kids might enroll out there for hoops, and CP3 has hinted that LeBron has no interest in the city of Houston. I'm in the camp that we need to simply re-up for one more crack at GS, just add some depth at PG and center. Trading up in this draft is more realistic, and I doubt that even happens. Dangle Gordon and replace him with Grayson Allen or whomever with that pick? Then maybe split up that MLE for Corey Joseph and Brook Lopez? IDK...
THEY COULD NOT WIN A GAME! In 4 tries. 2 of therm were blowouts. Lebron - "I think we are close guys. Just need to play harder." Clap! Clap! Clap!
Oh here's the Black sign & trade then...i was sure i read that idea a couple of weeks ago, i guess it was in a @aelliott post.
LOL @ Lebron thinking Kemba is enough to beat the Warriors. Let's hope for his sake he is not going senile.
