    Eric Gordon vs Tyreke Evans

    Gordon (41 games)
    33 mpg, 16 ppg, 2 apg, 32% from three, opponents shooting 47% vs Eric.

    Evans (46 games)
    20 mpg, 10 ppg, 2 apg, 35% from 3, opponents shooting 41% vs Tyreke.

    Now, instead of Evans getting only 20 minutes per game, give him Gordon's 33 minutes. More points, assists, and playmaking. Last year Evans averaged 31 minutes per game...19 ppg, 5 apg, 40% from three, and opponents shot only 43% vs Tyreke.

    I'll take Tyreke over EG. Gotta look deeper.

    Washington Out: Beal, Satoranski, Jeff green Washington In: Fultz, Zhaire, Knight, 3 future Hou 1st rd picks

    Philly Out: Fultz, Zhaire, Patton
    Philly In: Gordon, Satoranski, iHart

    Houston Out: Gordon, Knight, iHart, 3 future 1st's
    Houston In: Beal, Green, Patton

    Washington Perspective: They get 2 young players at the 1 and 2 to groom in place of Wall and Beal. 3 future 1sts is added to the war chest to improve the rebuild.

    Philly Perspectove: They gain valuable shooting, depth and even an added clutch factor in Gordon and Satoranski to make a finals push this year. Both are perfect fits and upgrades and require no assets outside a relative bust and a rookie who hasn't played much yet.

    Houston Perspective: Makes the all-in move to bring the the 3rd star level talent and give Harden the help he needs. Further lessens the burden on cp3 and is a serious upgrade as well as a perfect fit for this system.

    This. Also too, Tyreke has never had Harden to play with.

    I mean, I could go really deep and compare the per 36 stats to compare production during equal minutes played.

    It would be really in favor of Tyreke then.

    I like both Beal and Green a lot, but 2 FRPs would be enough IMO since EGo is worth a FRP. I'd try to include Chriss somehow.

    Jaylen Brown would be perfect.

    And who that might be? Jaylen Brown? A ressurection of Hayward?
    The Celtics are win now mode. Win now so you can win in the future.
    You are saying that for the cost of letting an expiring UFA go away for nothing they should jeopardise an AD + Kyrie superteam.

    Stop eating what you're eating and that will probably go away.

    Gotta find some way to replace Chris Paul with another solid guard. It would be great if something materializes in the summer.

    EG, knight, chriss and 3 FRPS for Beal and salary dump.

    I love EG and that is maybe only a handful of players i would trade him for.

    Harden and Rockets love him too.

    Per 36 minutes

    Tyreke Evans vs Chris Paul vs Eric Gordon

    Tyreke Evans
    2017-18: 23 ppg, 6 apg, 6 rpg
    2018-19: 19 ppg, 4 apg, 5 rpg

    Chris Paul
    2017-18: 21 ppg, 9 apg, 6 rpg
    2018-19: 17 ppg, 9 apg, 5 rpg

    Eric Gordon:
    2017-18: 21 ppg, 3 apg, 3 rpg
    2018-19: 18 ppg, 2 apg, 3 rpg

    Hmmm. Wish we could get Tyreke without having to give up Gordon.

    Not trading Marcus Morris because he's a good player in the rotation is like saying the Rockets won't trade EG. Both teams are in win now mode which is why what you're saying doesn't make sense to me. No one's knows if Marcus's camp hasn't already had conversations with Celtics management in regards to wanting to play elsewhere, and fact is, it isn't guaranteed Marcus will be around to be packaged in a trade for AD. And why would Marcus Morris want to stick around just so he can get traded to New Orleans? That also doesn't make sense. Do you agree?

    Can you imagine of we some magical way walk away from this deadline with Trev/Beal while giving up Gordon, trash and picks?



    I can dream...

    No its not the same at all.
    Harden is in a long contract with many years left.
    It would be the same if Harden was becoming UFA this summer, the media was saying he will leave and he said I dont owe anyone here **** and then Morey went ahead and traded Capela.

    Morris shouldnt be counted at all in the AD potential package. He is Ufa and unless NOP is willing to overpay him he will go where he wants.

    Reggie Bullock just got picked up by the Lakers for Svi and a second round pick. Not sure if we tried to get him or not but I feel like he would’ve been a good fit for us.
