    my sources tell me that Houston are happy to move along from Eric Gordon and are shopping him in trade talks,

    in conversations that I’ve had with executives across the league his value is pretty damn low

    what do you guys see as an acceptable return for Eric Gordon? do remember that there are two picks to attach to any deal involving EG

    That’s an obvious move. So is moving House.

    Wasn't OP ahead of the talks regarding Wood? I am not saying he is legit not; however, I am not sure how your post helps anything. Sarcasm?

    you mean we have to attach two picks? 1st rd picks? Or combination of picks.

    Keep Gordon. We all know, he was better than what he showed last year. There are teams that would have taken him the year prior. That's why he got the extension this year.

    Need to keep Gordon here if we arent getting a better player back.

    Only way to move him is by attaching a first rd pick.

    Another terrible Daryl Morey move with that ridiculous extension.

    NBA players tend to play crappy the first year of their 4 year contract. I think Gordon will bounce back and increase his value, along with seeing some added variety to his game with different coaching. I wouldn't be upset if they hold onto him as the 6th man off the bench. If traded however, it needs to be a rotation player that's cheaper but able to produce similarly if we are to attach picks. Not sure whom that would be though.

    Gordon being on the trade block isn't news. At least that what the league executives have been telling me...

    They would far rather move Gordon. House is a possible starter and superior fit positionally at little money.

    He’s on a low contract. EG plus House have relatively low value right now, even with attached picks.

    It was not terrible, the guy was tied with cp3 as our second best playoff performer the season prior. He had a bad year. He can go back to what he was. Lets see what can do with the new coaching.

    Move him to Milwaukee for the remaining Bogdan pieces in this expanded deal. Donte and DJ. Frees up cap and fills needs.
