    They would do it for Bullock, he replaces Thybulle as a better shooter. They have enough defense with their additions of Tucker, Melton, and House. The hangup is the pick I think, which is why we should just take 2 seconds. Gordon is an injury away from being worth nothing. 20 million is a lot for a cheerleader anyways

    LOL We already know the poo-poo platter they’re offering.

    Talen Horton-Tucker & Kendrick Nunn

    If Nunn is healthy he's a good buy low piece. We can do better...

    Don't want that THT long term deal...

    Do not bring any players back for EG. Future pick, or everyone else can go suck an egg.

    No, I don't want your worthless 2nd rounders. On general principle, I am holding EG until the price is met.

    Ok, i might do this..


    To Houston
    Nunn
    THT
    Thybulle

    To Sixers
    Eric Gordon

    To Lakers
    Korkmaz
    Milton
    Niang


    Nunn could be possible long term PG. Have him compete with KPJ and Tyty.

    Thybulle gives is defense in the backcourt.

    THT is a negative asset for the 2 years 20 he has left. He knocks our 75 million in cap space closer to 65. So we still get a max guy.

    Worst case if we need the space we attach a first to his expiring deal to a team with cap space or NG contract for a heavily protected 2nd...

    It's not ideal from a roster structure standpoint.

    I will say we are set ar 2, 4, and likely 5. If there's a potential long term PG or SG coming back I would consider it for competition...

    Doing a shopping list for long term 3 options to target in 3 way deal with Sixers...

    Filters:
    26 or under next season
    6'5" or taller
    38%+ 3pt shooting
    300+ 3pt attempts

    Then removed guys who recently signed or traded as well as obvious players not on the market such as Tatum.

    Max Strus - Heat
    Luke Kennard - Clippers
    Keldon Johnson - Spurs
    Cameron Johnson - Suns

    I would rank Keldon, Cameron, Strus, then Kennard....

    Here's a thought...

    To Rockets
    Keldon Johnson
    F Korkmaz
    G Niang
    S Milton

    To 76ers
    Eric Gordon

    To Spurs
    Thybulle
    Springer
    Pick swap or future pick from Houston

    Have no idea if Keldon is available or not... Spurs seem to be going Thunder route for rebuilding.

    A pick swap for 2023 would entice them as it improves their odds at #1 and a swap would likely still leave us with a top 10 pick...

    Again, thinking long term piece at the 3...

    22-23 years old
    39% 3pt shooting
    57.4% ts%
    54.5% efg%
    Per 36 of 6.9 rebounds / 2.4 assists

    SFs with lower efg%
    Andrew Wiggins
    Kelly Oubre
    Jaylen Brown
    JaeSean Tate
    Terance Mann
    Jayson Tatum
    OG Anunoby
    Khris Middleton

    Everything I've read about Eason is a career backup... I've heard comparison (career wise, not skills) to Montrezl Harrell... high energy rotation guy.

    He's so raw on offense it's hard to say...
