Do you recall last night's game where we were missing Paul, so Harden put up 60 and we barely beat a bottom dwelling East team? We might not need another guard if Chris is healthy, but it's hardly a bad idea.
Lmao a first? I’d give up Black and one of our G-League or Overseas stash guys but not Zhou Qi . 2nd Rounder maybe ...
Nothing ever leaks that Morey does and you know we have zero chance for this to happen. We actually one only have Ryno and Black as trade able.
He's been real good this year, but yeah, this sounds like Lou Williams all over again if it were to happen. Doubt it does. Not worth the trouble for the cost.
I don’t doubt Houston would like To have him as insurance but I doubt there has been much talk from Houston on this one - it sounds like someone in Memphis is trying to create the impression of a bidding war to gain a little extra value out of another team in a trade. No way Memphis is getting a first for Evans unless it’s the last pick or two in the draft(ie. a spot where a 2nd rounder is probably more valuable)
First round picks have magically become very valuable again..... overly valuable at this point. I still hate Stan VanGundy for backing out of the DMO deal. We could have used that #1 pick. I won't complain about the #1 for Chris Paul, he is an elite player.
I like Evans, but not that much and we're loaded at the guard position as it is. With CP3 and Harden already on board Evans might be relegated to just a spot up shooter. We need a capable PF that can play defense instead. And we wouldn't have Evans' bird rights, so we'd lose a first round pick for a half year rental. Can't see it happening.
I think this would be a great insurance move if we pick him up. Just in case one of our guards go down, we would have another guard ready.
The Corey Brewer stuff was leaked well in advance. The Chris Paul stuff was leaked well in advance. Even Clutch was saying he was getting the feeling the Rockets knew they were getting CP3 in advance.
That's what Rockets should offer Dallas for an unused Nerlens Noel. Throw in rights to Gentile (Cuban likes those tall Euros), if Morey feeling generous.
We arent trading any picks. Rockets have a couple 2nds and some expiring and potential young players that could be traded. I would do this deal. It would bolster the Rockets. Need some money and a roster spot for a buyout spot if a Center comes open. Hoping Chandler.
