Cause its not just Tucker, its Tucker AND Gordon. If I had to trade one, yea I will say I'd probably choose Gordon. But if you think Butler can move the needle for us after losing both, nah aint happening.
What? This team will prolly win over 50 games as is, I believe that. I care about championships and trading for Butler will not move the needle against GS but it will also leave us screwed after this year when Butler decides to leave.
If the defense does not improve, we will barely win 50 games if that. If the defense does improve, I will go back to not wanting to trade Tucker.
Thank you. PJ and EG are role players while Butler is a superstar, better on offense than EG and better defender than PJ.
The way Capela has been playing, especially on defense I would be okay in adding him too. But only if we got someone back like Noel’s or someone like Mason Plumlee. They were saying it last game that Capela doesn’t need to do much and we all know that he just needs to be ready for Harden passes.
We are THREE GAMES IN. You are going to see defense drop no matter what because of our personnel. We can get better without having to trade Tucker or EG, Morey just has to make some moves.
Man, right now it doesn't look like we can afford to lose Tucker's defense OR Gordon's range. We gotta wait till we know more about this team.
Well first of all they just gave him an extension second of all he’s so good with harden. Give him a minute to get his legs this season. I would love taj on this team. Tuck and Eric for those 3.
Some people are talking as if it’s a guarantee that Butler is ours if we put Tucker and Gordon on the table. I doubt that’s the case. Then others believe the October 31st date is what Morey is waiting for to make the deal happen. That is even more unlikely. Chriss and Knight don’t make any sort of package more intriguing. All Knight can do is knock off a year from Dieng’s contract but no one wants him for his play. And if it is for Dieng reasons then we could have already done that in a separate one for one trade.
Losing Gordon would be a big loss. People underrate how important he is with his shooting ability and people who think Knight can replace him are dreaming.
Eh...that's pretty typical. Stars are rarely traded for other stars. Normally it's expiring/veterans/picks/young upside players.
Yeah. Minny definitely seems to be seeking the young upsides over the vets. At this point though maybe Minny no longer sees our pick as being half bad.
