We need to infuse the team with athletic young high upside players, let’s bring in Thomas Robinson, Terrence Williams, KJ McDaniels and Nick Johnson
This is a terrible idea .... trade assets for a guy who's played a total of 85 games in three years .... and none in the last year. Hard Pass.
IF we wanted to trade Porter (just Porter) for a pick in this draft. What range would the pick be? What is the value of each player (just that player) in this draft. Wood, Tate, & Gordon? Most like they will be mixed and matched together for higher returns; perhaps we will receive a bad contract or two for the highest return.
Idk if Porter would get you a pick. Im bullish on his fot for what we want to become BUT he played well at the end of the year and deserves more time.
I don't think we have anyone worth more than a late first round pick. Best bet would be to combine the lowest cost ones into a package combined with the Nets pick. Something like Wood, Tate and Nets pick for a bad contract and a good pick. I would look into New Orleans and Sacramento at #8 and #7.
K. Hear me out. I love Sengun as much as anyone. However: Sengun and Tate For Kuminga This would depend on a few things. GS commitment to Wiseman, and out commitment to Wood. It would leave the Brooklyn pick to be open for a guy like Mark Williams. In this scenario i would ideally like to trade out Wood (plus other assets) for a guy like Turner but i dont see a realistic swap trade there. KPJ/Green/Kuminga/(Chet/Bari/Paolo)/Wood
it just means you’re an OG around here relative to the crowd lmao KJ McDaniels once threw me a foam ball pre game because I was probably the only dude in the arena that knew his name
So excited for the trades we are gonna pull off on draft night to rebalance the roster and improve our team. I’m going to will this into existence with the power of my mind.
Houston Rockets Trade Breakdown Change in Team Outlook: -4.0 ppg, -4.6 rpg, and +3.2 apg. Incoming Players D'Angelo Russell 26 year old, 6-4, 193 lb SG from Ohio State 18.1 ppg, 3.3 rpg, 7.1 apg in 31.9 minutes in 2021-2022 Jaden McDaniels 21 year old, 6-9, 185 lb F from Washington 9.2 ppg, 4.2 rpg, 1.1 apg in 25.8 minutes in 2021-2022 Outgoing Players Eric Gordon 33 year old, 6-3, 215 lb G from Indiana 13.4 ppg, 2.0 rpg, 2.7 apg in 29.3 minutes in 2021-2022 Christian Wood 26 year old, 6-10, 223 lb PF from UNLV 17.9 ppg, 10.1 rpg, 2.3 apg in 30.8 minutes in 2021-2022
How about this: Rockets get: NAW, Monte Morris, 2024 Nuggets FRP, 2025 Jazz FRP Nuggets get: Mike Conley, Royce O'Neal Jazz get: Will Barton, JaMychal Green, Christian Wood For us, this is essentially trading Wood for two future FRPs while taking back an expiring and a veteran guard we have little use for. I think that's about as good as we can expect for Wood. Nuggets would do it to upgrade the PG spot with Conley on the hopes that Murray comes back strong next season, and the Jazz do it for Wood's floor stretching and as a future part of their core going forward.
I'd trade Wood to the team that drafts either Eason or Mark Williams. Or for Jalen Johnson + pick. First option is to trade either EGo or Tate for either of those players however.
