    I will say this the rockets have now been linked to shump 2x now in one year.

    Morey or MDA or both must see something in him that we are not.

    The rockets look like there going to field a very good defensive team with 2 true superstars this year.

    Maybe 3 if we get melo.

    I will say this about Anderson.

    While he should be moved for melo imo if we can get it done, i would throw a first round pick unprotected. if not he's going to be very lethal playing off cp3 and harden he's going to get so many open looks and space the court for both.

    He's actually a good fit offensively he just makes about 8m to much a year.

    Not liking how I'm seeing rumors of EG for Shump?
    We're willing to give up NBA 6th Man of the Year and one of the best 3pt sharpshooters in the league for this guy?
    MDA's system is built around 3pt shooting. I don't see the benefit

    They aren't giving up Gordon for Shumpert.
    They're not even giving up those NG deals for Shump now.
    This trade is dead.

    Lol this will NEVER happen. Gordon is the third best player on this team as it stands now. Shumpert, at best, would be the 7th best player on this roster

    Morey wasn't willing to give up Gordon for Paul George so I highly doubt that he would flip him for Shumpert of all people.

    If the NGs do not get used in Tuck then Frye, instead of Shump, sounds good to me. (Always did BTW.)

    Shumpert for Gordon would erase the C.Paul trade, slightly. That is a bad trade for the Rockets.

    Maybe they should try the Knicks. They just paid $71 million for Penny Hardaway's son

    If Cavs want to add Melo and lose Love why bother with other teams? Pretty sure NYC would do that trade straight up. TbH I don't know why Cavs haven't done it yet, Lebron and Melo together would be nasty and maybe they can trade Irving for Paul at midseason and have the banana boat brigade in CLE.

    No but everyone on this board has been acting as if fat head has.

    He's nothing more than Burt Steele with no b****es or boats
