Per Kevin O'Conner, De'Aaron Fox maybe on his way out...accelerate the rebuild... John Wall, Jalen Green and 2-1st Rounders for Fox, Hield and Bagley. Fox is locked into a contract and is from the Houston area. Moved KPJ back to SG. Fox/Augustine KPJ/Gordon Mathews/Hield Tate/KJ Wood/Segun
Bad news for us. Means the sellers market is growing, and will drive down the price of everyone else selling.
Part of me says too soon to give up on Thrilla, but for that haul?? I would definitely reconsider Might have to send House and / or Theis out as well Fox / Augustin / JayGup KPJ / EGo / Snipa G$$$/ Hield / Nwaba Bagz / Tate / Sprangz CWood / Sengawd / Garuba That team could be a Phoenix-like model of a superstar away from championship contention
I like the trade to get Fox in Houston. In addition, Rockets have multiple future picks to move for another star.
Change in Team Outlook: -14.5 ppg, -2.9 rpg, and -0.9 apg. Incoming Players De'Aaron Fox 23 year old, 6-3, 185 lb PG from Kentucky 20.1 ppg, 3.7 rpg, 5.5 apg in 34.8 minutes in 2021-2022 Marvin Bagley III 22 year old, 6-11, 240 lb PF from Duke 6.6 ppg, 5.9 rpg, 0.7 apg in 17.8 minutes in 2021-2022 Outgoing Players Eric Gordon 32 year old, 6-3, 215 lb G from Indiana 14.1 ppg, 1.9 rpg, 2.8 apg in 29.7 minutes in 2021-2022 Jalen Green 19 year old, 6-6, 178 lb SG from NBA G League Ignite 14.0 ppg, 3.1 rpg, 2.3 apg in 30.8 minutes in 2021-2022 Daniel Theis 29 year old, 6-8, 245 lb C from Ratiopharm Ulm (Germany) 8.4 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 0.8 apg in 22.8 minutes in 2021-2022 Danuel House 28 year old, 6-6, 215 lb F from Texas A&M 4.8 ppg, 2.7 rpg, 1.2 apg in 14.5 minutes in 2021-2022
I think we'll see more of these stories over the next few weeks. Teams want to advertise their available players, and with Dec 15 approaching, more are coming to the point where they want draft picks for existing pieces.
Yes, he is not the best shooter, but he is very capable. He is only 24 years old so shooting can be improve. His new contract is just kicking and pair him up next to Wood and we could have something. Rockets have plenty of young talent and picks to move around and add even more talent. Not to mention, he has been stuck in a crappy situation in Sacrmento...so maybe a change in scenery and playing next to capable players can help grow as a player. There is a reason why Morey wants Fox included in any deals for Simmons.
That's GREAT news! I'm trading EG, Garuba and a future 1 for Myles Turner. The Pacers can send EG elsewhere to get another pick and/or player. Turner - 25yrs old Wood -26 yrs old Tate -24 yrs old Green - 19 yrs old KPJ - 21 yrs old Solid lineup for yrs to come and you still have Green, KPJ, Sengun and Wood to let grow and become All -Stars Bench Sengun Matthew's Brooks JC KMJ/House
Not sure about including Garuba, but they can have Theis and a top 10 protected 1st instead you know I love me some Myles Turner
3 Teamer: IND IN: WALL HALLIBURTON KPJ #1 FROM HOU VIA MIA #1 FROM SAC HOU IN: BAGLEY TURNER FOX #2 FROM SAC SAC IN: SABONIS LAVERT GREEN
Half the time I think these guys are SMOKING and get an idea and run with it. Only reason I presented Garuba is because he's not going to see the court with the addition of Turner, plus Sengun and KMJ. Also, Indy is going to be looking for younger players.
These Fox trade proposals are ridiculous. The guys is in his 5th year and is shooting worse from 3 then Jalen is. He's not great at passing. He's not great at defending. What's the point?
Down year right now... this is true. Two questions: (1) have you seen how lightning quick Mr. Fox is (end-to-end.... TWSS) / have you seen him play (not just highlights)? (2) Have you looked at his productivity prior to this year - including his PER? https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/f/foxde01.html That may explain why some of us would like to see Mr. Fox in a Rox uniform.... but it is a valid point that Thrilla has not probably tapped (Tap... Tap... Tap... In) into his potential
