NBATrade sending Ryan Anderson from Rockets to Heat already in work

No.

See, that would be too good for you. Clutch left it open for a reason... to let you suffer for your sins at the mercy of the rabid CF crowd.

 

Rumors! Rumors!! Rumors!!! I'll believe any trade involving RYNO when I see it. I just don't believe this fake article.

 

How about:
Scottie Quitten
Kelvin Cato
Ty Lawson
Bryce Drew

 

Nice...but remember there was a market for Pippen.

 

This dude is spot on!

We ALL live and learn ....

Go Rockets!!!

I'm already in work. It sucks

 

Rather have another Carmelon thread than a fake news thread.

 

Matt Maloney says hi while depositing his latest check from the Rockets.

 

If their is a Whiteside for Tristan and Korver
Maybe we can wedge it into a three way trade
Korver can be added to the Rockets side.

Rocket River

 

I wouldn't call it fake news. Just rehashed news because of past talk about trading with the Heat.

 

Kyle Korver?? Talk about going from bad to worse. If they have to scrape the bottom of the talent barrel to get players I'd rather they just roll with what they have.

 

3 team trade between the Rockets, Heat and Cavs.

Heat in: Ryan Anderson, Tristian Thompson, HOU top-25 protected 1st and Cavs 2nd
Heat out: Whiteside and James Johnson

Cavs in: Whiteside and HOU 2nd
Cavs out: Thompson, Korver and 2nd

Rockets in: James Johnson and Korver
Rockets out: Anderson, top-25 protected 1st and 2nd

This could be a basic framework. Obviously it’s very unlikely (3-team trades are rare) but there’s some reasoning behind the move.

For the Heat, they get rid of a headache in Whiteside and also the long term deal in Johnson. In 2 years the contracts of Anderson, Thompson, Tyler Johnson and Dragic will expire so that’s potentially MAJOR cap space for them. They also shave a couple of million on this year’s cap. The 1st they get from Houston can be protected top-25 or set up that it turns into a 2nd if it’s not conveyed this year.

For the Cavs, they sound like they want to stay somewhat relevant with the Love extension so they should be willing to take a chance on Whiteside. A rotation of Sexton, Hood, Osman, Love and Whiteside with Hill, Smith, Clarkson, Dekker and Nance off the bench is a nice team that could sneak in with a 7/8 seed in the East.

For the Rockets, I’ll start by saying if Morey can flip Ryno into James Johnson and Kyle Korver then Morey is really a god amongst men. Cod has been alluding to Korver for a while and James Johnson is probably my favorite of those who has been rumored in a Ryno trade.

Picture our rotation:
PG: Paul and Harden split time with the occasional MCW / Melton stint
SG: Harden and Gordon get majority time, with some of Green
SF: Melo starts, Ennis and Korver get the rest of the time
PF: Tucker and Johnson with a little Melo
C: Capela with majority minutes, Tucker or Johnson in small ball, Nene if match ups need him.

This team is better, on paper, than last years.

 

Did you base your trade off of this report?

We are overrun by freaking aggregators now.

Wtf is this site turning into?

 

Korver is one of the most prolific 3 point shooters in NBA history and was one of LeBron's favorite targets for passes during the playoffs this last year. Do you even watch basketball?
