    oops. Yes he would be in the guard rotation.

    Wall / Harris
    Gordon / Milton
    House / Tate
    MPJ
    Wood / Cousins

    If Denver won’t trade mpj for James harden....how do you expect the Celtics to get him?

    agree. I think we could redirect Simmons to them, allow them to keep Murray, get more picks and prospects from both Denver and Philly.

    If it’s really going to happen the simpler the better. Getting 2 franchises together is hard 3 and 4 is next to impossible.
    Here is the silly simple solution:
    A) Don’t trade him
    B) same as choice A
    C) All the above



    If we do trade the Pacers are about the only answer.
    Harden, Tucker, House & Clemons
    For
    Brogdon, Sabonis, Warren & 2 FRP

    Rox
    Brogdon, Gordon, Warren, Sabonis, Wood. —> Wall, GG, Tate, Cousins

    Pacers
    Harden, Oladipo, McDermott, Tucker, Turner. —> House, Lamb, Holiday

    It fits both teams.

    I don’t think it’s like that. Denver wouldnt hesitate to trade MPJ for Harden, but I’m assuming the issue with Denver is packaging Murray & MPJ. I’d imagine the thought of a 2 year window of Harden is intriguing, but Denver is holding out hope their assets keep improving and creating a window much longer window thn 2 years. Plus, No guarantee that harden doesn’t bail on Denver in 2 years. They’ve got a hell of team that’s really young it makes sense they wouldn’t want to deal the two of them.

    I understand but I see proposals here of the Celtics getting mpj for the rockets....it’s not happening. Murray isn’t on the table of course not

    I think it could be Brown to Denver, MPJ + other prospects and picks to Houston, Harden to Celtics. The same basic structure could work with Simmons going to Denver.

    If there is any way you could get Collins, Hunter and Reddish out of Atlanta I would be doing it. I know Collins will get paid next year but that young Core would be brilliant for the rebuild.

    Eric Gordon, Tucker & 2 FRP
    For
    Aaron Gordon

    Seems like an overpay at first look but it opens cap room for G. Green. It also cleans E Gordon off the books 2 years earlier. Saves money and improves talent. Think it’s a good move with or without Harden going forward.

    I would do this, think that would be more incentive for Harden to stay too.

    Tate's doing better than I thought. Send him out and retain one of the first round picks instead. Add House too if needed.

    Yep.

    That's why I wanted him before season started.

    50% from 3 and +16 last game.

    EGo + House + 2 FRP for AG is better for Rockets.

    Tucker has positive value so Rockets can trade with Clemons and receive Thybulle + Korkmaz + FRP.

    6'4 Wall/6'7 Korkmaz
    6'5 Harden/6'3 McLemore
    6'5 Thybulle/6'5 Nwaba/6'5 Brown
    6'8 AG/6'4 Tate
    6'10 Wood/6'10 Cousins/6'9 Bruno

    Both BMac and Korkmaz are 40% 3P shooters.

    And with the 2 above trades, Rockets have option of bringing back 6'6 Gerald Green (36% 3P) or signing another 40% 3P sniper in 6'7 Ryan Broekhoff or 36% 3P THICC defensive specialist 6'6 Justin Anderson (7'0 wingspan and 44" max vert).

    A good idea, but Tucker doesn't have that much value. TF would need to attach a FRP with him and pay Clemons's salary in order to get a chance to acquire either Thybulle or Korkmaz.

    That is NOT the case.

    PJ definitely has positive value because he is 36% 3P shooter and legendary 3-D glue player that can defend 1-5.

    Those kind of players are ALWAYS valuable.
