    Exactly, the proper term now is "guardian of the tea"

    Gordon wouldn’t be playing if there was a trade in the works.

    Stone won't trade him.

    I hate this. I really wanted the rockets to get Josh hart and extend him. He’s a winning player.

    If we do not trade Gordon -- we get significant value just by him dropping off the payroll next year. That could be a better option for us as compared to A) Taking back weak players that we'd have to pay; or B) Taking back draft picks at a time when we have an abundance of youth on the roster.

    I'm fine with keeping Gordon and shedding his salary this offseason. We can spend the money more freely on the open market.

    I think he will be bought out if not traded

    I'd be surprised if he were bought out.

    EG may not be worth a 1st but they could get a 2nd rd pick for him. If they don't trade him for a 2nd rd pick it would seem that they value him being here.

    I’m hearing that there’s a chance they keep him and re-sign him for two more years (at a discount to his current contract). Think it was in the Athletic today.

    That's why Stone is incompetent on trading.

    Is it so hard for Stone to trade Gordon?
    I see in no way we should keep him.
