Hou In: Lowry, Aaron Gordon Orlando In: Westbrook, Eric Gordon Toronto In: Fournier, Fultz, 2021 Detroit 1st, Orlando 2021 1st (lotto protected) Both Fournier and Fultz expire next season, so Toronto keeps its precious cap space for Giannas. They also get 2 picks. Orlando gets 2 guards that are better than anyone they have. Westbrook will make the all-star team, and pairs well with Vucevic. Houston gets a better fit next to Harden in Lowry, and an upgrade in Gordon. They also set themselves up to be a player for Kawhi or Paul George in free agency next year. We also open up an additional $8 million in space below the apron to use our mid level exception.
Another acceptable deal. Houston In: Aaron Gordon, Fournier Orlando In: Westbrook No picks to Orlando if I’m Houston. Need those picks to potentially dump Eric Gordon to open up max space next summer. Houston opens up another $4 million in space under the apron.
I'd love it, just can't fathom something this good actually happening for the Rockets. I miss the time we traded for Harden. I didn't even know those were good times, and we still had tons of picks to dole out.
