if hes truly on the market, i think granger for evans + filler makes more sense for both teams.

maybe granger + augustine for evans + thompson?

I like Jared Dudley more because he's a good role player and cheap.

I do whatever I can to get Marcus Smart in the draft and clear out the glut of guards this summer. Stay cheap, have good character guys to surround Cousins.

Also, hire Nate McMillian as the coach.

Yeah that would actually be rather epic tbh, Maruc Smart is a going to be very good and Nate as a coach would be beast.

To a certain extent, but I honestly think if the Kings won't pay Evans they were better of trying to get something like Granger as someone said.

The least we could have got out of this deal was D-Mo or Terrance Jones but we didn't even get that. Cole Alridge might be the worst C in the whole NBA

The team doesn't need a Granger now. You've got to bottom out (check), stay cheap and try to nail a couple of good draft picks. Granger is a guy you get to make a run, not to rebuild.

Awful trade for Houston. Awful.


Horrendous.


If you have too many PF's...guys with talent, like Montiejunas and now Royce White...when you have Terrence Jones...you trade for Thomas Robinson.


Robinson could be great for them, but what do you do with all the other stuff? You're trading it for a different PG? Getting rid of Lin? What are you doing?


But I knew those Twins would end up together lol.

awful? The most the rockets gave up was Patterson. I'll take it.

They have the assets to probably move up in the draft if they need to, unless Marcus Smart ends up going #1. They need a floor general and I think Smart has that DNA.

Nate is my pick if they go to Seattle. Would be kinda cool and he's a good coach. Got really screwed here in Portland.

Maybe than get Gerald Henderson than imo if they won't pay Tyreke, maybe Tyreke and something else for Jeffery Taylor and Hendo.

Mistake...awful for both is what I meant to say. I just realized that you got Honeycutt too, which makes it less awful, strictly because you have more assets.

What you have a glut of PF's with potential, don't you...too many.

[G-train]

Houston get T-Rob (5th pick full of potential, mainly restricted due to bad coaching/situation) at start of rookie contract in exchange of 2 nothing role players and Pat Pat who really is just a role player and at the end of rookie contract. T-Rob now at great club, and being coached by McHale.
Great trade for Houston.

[Jailblazers7]

Lin
Harden
Parsons/White
T-Rob/Greg Smith/Jones
Asik/Montie

Not sold on Lin as the future at PG but that is a lot of good young talent. Houston will be fun to watch develop.

[G-train]

DERP, they gave up two average ones today, and acquired the 5th pick in the draft. T-Rob has heaps of potential, was held back in Sac.

[Whoah10115]

I don't think its all that bad for HOU especially since they got Honeycutt and a pick.

Royce hasn't played a game an his future with HOU is sketchy at best (and should see time at the 3), Jones has potential but he is a tweener type who will be better as versatility off the bench in the future, and Montiejunas should be able to move over to C as he develops and fills out his frame a bit.

Robinson is still a great athlete and should fit better in HOU's fast-paced style. He can be a hustle guy as he develops and if anyone can teach him to play in the post it will be McHale.

Patterson is a nice player but they didn't really give up all that much, especially when you look long-term.

Yea I didn't notice Honeycutt until I saw it on TV. Sacramento for the win lol.


But I actually meant to add that it was awful for both teams. It just seemed like a lateral move.


I actually see plenty of the fit for Robinson in Houston...but they have so many guys there and, while they're all question marks, so is Robinson. I'd be looking for bigger moves than Robinson. I'd go for Josh Smith and see if Howard would follow.

It's amazing to me Evans isn't more in the rumors. Someone will give him a big contract this summer and I get the feeling Sacramento will match it. Don't understand why though.

[Phantom_Blue]

This will be good for Cousins, being reunited with Patterson who's always been a good character guy. This should make chuckwagon happy as well, seeing another familiar face.

Ah yeah except they can't have Harden, Smoove and Dwight.
They have Harden, young guys, and cap room for Dwight.
