    Danuel House, PJ Tucker (into exception), 3 FRP (Detroit, Washington and Blazers) for MPJ.

    Don't give up the Nets picks for him (maybe 2022 is okay instead of Detroit's pick if they require it) but throw the rest of the newly acquired picks.


    Wall/Gordon
    Oladipo/ McLemore
    Tate / Nwaba
    MPJ / Brown
    Wood/ Cousins

    That's a very well balanced team with 4 All Star Quality players in the starting lineup. MPJ could turn into a superstar but he has some red flags that makes him more obtainable now than he should be.

    Those picks are heavily protected for the next years anyway, so i think I‘d be fine with it. It‘d be nice to get rid of House too.

    Lol why do y'all even waste your time with these scenarios. We all know exactly what's going into the TPE. Tillman's MVP Luxury Tax Savings. He's let every TPE we have ever had expire what makes anyone think this will be different.

    Do y’all think is possible that Stone has Wall and/or Gordon laid down in a trade and that’s why we haven’t seen him of late?

    No, I think the trade I mentioned above is the most likely deal the Rockets would make. PJ is #1 most likely to be traded unless he had a huge change of heart wanting to stay here long term and I think House will be traded because he's basically the first domino that started this collapse. He's posting IG live videos rapping during the games, he doesn't seem completely checked in.

    MPJ is a major target. He was during the Harden trade and he still is.

    Here is more random...
    Wall, House, McLemore & 3 FRP Detroit, Portland, and our 2021
    ...for...
    Drummond (expiring), Nance & Sexton.
    Our cap becomes squeaky clean going forward with starting front court in very team friendly contracts.
    The rest of this year:
    Sexton/Oladipo/Tate/Wood/Drummond—> Nance/Gordon/Tucker/Cousins & more
    We will pick up 2nd rounders at the deadline from most of depth
    Next year:
    Sexton/Gordon/Tate/Nance/Wood

    The more I think about it, the it more feels like Oladipo would be a huge addition for the Heat.

    Oladipo and Tucker
    For
    Herro, Achiuwu and expirings (Olynyk or Iguodala)

    Could we squeeze their 2027 first rounder? (Lotto protect it?)

    Then it is just a matter of ditching Gordon to pursue Kawhi in the off-season.

    4 team: HOU - CHA - ATL - ORL
    CHA: House (HOU) + rights to HOU 2021 HOU FRP

    ATL: P.J. Tucker (HOU) + Nwaba (HOU) + POR 2021 FRP (via HOU)

    ORL: Eric Gordon (HOU) + Clemons (HOU) + Fernando (ATL) + 2022 MIL FRP (top 10 protected) + 2022 BRK FRP (lottery protected)

    HOU: Aaron Gordon (ORL) + John Collins (ATL) + Devonte Graham (CHA) + Mo Bomba (ORL)

    Wall - Graham - Exum
    Oladipo - Brown - BMac
    Gordon - Tate - GGreen
    Collins - Bamba - KMart2
    Wood - Cousins - Kurucs

    Unit 1: Wall - Brown - Tate - Collins - Cousins

    Unit 2: Graham - Oladipo - Gordon - Wood - Bamba

    I know it goes against the protect our pick mantra, but that should be a quality team in the West.

    Miami wasn't willing to trade both Herro and Achiuwu for Harden, what makes you think they would for Oladipo?

    Collins demanding a max contract.

    Do not see Rockets paying max for a non All Star player.

    And rightfully so.

    I thought the Heat bailed because they felt like Houston was just keeping them on the hook (ie using them to up the other bids). They made an offer of young players and 3 picks (and would have needed to compensate OKC to do so).
    From what I understand they were unwilling to include Bam.

    While Oladipo isn't Harden, he isn't sliced mutton either.
    Take out the 3 picks and 2 of the players involved, and then add some back to get Tucker as well.
    It wouldn't be the worst move for Miami.

    To go from Herro as a playoff rotation player to Oladipo and Tucker... I dunno about you, but I think it is a significant upgrade for a contender. Sure, Herro MAY be better than Oladipo down the track, but Miami want to win now.

    Do you think anyone else will max him? Having his bird rights might be handy - could always SnT?
    But, I am not sure he is the guy to complement Wood in the frontcourt. It would be worth a look, but not at the price of a pick.


    Also, I am in the anti AG brigade now that harden is gone. (Sign up!) His contract is no good for us now... If he was on 7mill per, he would be good next to Wood. But he isn't- unless they pay us to take him, or straight flip for EGo

    I think he brings more than his 19M/per contract and add value in places of need with or with out Harden. I would extend his current contract another few years. He is not a max player.

    Harris and MPJ for Oladipo and Tucker

    Allows Denver to go all in to take on the Lakers with two solid defenders and 3 pt shooters. Houston gets a young potential star to help with the rebuild.

    Collins has been on ATL... so he was receiving His-team-sucks-so-he-mus-suck-too no votes.

    I think he could take off in a big market like Htown (folks from HOU & ATL voting for him) and especially if this ship gets righted

    That being said, I am biased because he's from here (WPB)
