As soon as Tyreke or Kevin Martin is a Pelican, EG is gone. GUARANTEED.

True. All we do is lose trade leverage for Gordon if we go out and tell everyone that we're starting Evans.

It's not even about trade leverage. I think we have a deal in place already. But if it falls through or we pull out cause we can't sign Gordon's replacement, why risk hurting Gordon's feelings if you know he's sensitive?

x34 lol

I think we killed all trade possibilities with Gordon when we gave him a max contract. I look for EG to be a Pelican this year.

I have a major feeling, that we are gonna Sign Tyreke, Trade Gordon for cap room and strike the money with Iggy.

19th pick and $13m extra cap space to sign whoever we want in free agency. I'll take that.

It's like potentially turning Gordon into Karasev/Iggy

I have a major feeling Grown Ups 2 will be a box office smash, and Katie Perry will remarry Russel Brand.

I think I'll just avoid this site for a while. Twitter has allowed any "twit" to post their thoughts rather founded or unfounded.

I wouldn't worry. Seems like about as worthless as one can get as far as info. So, we're not shopping him, but he's not unobtainable? Yeah- no **** he's not unobtainable. Why would he be unobtainable? How is this "news" at all???? The only player that is unobtainable should be Davis- and maybe Holiday in this moment.

Dont know if this has been posted yet but judging from this it seems likely we could have a decision on Evans over the next day or so. From the sounds of it he sounds very interested in signing here. Hmmm which is interesting because it contradicts his statement of not wanting to play the 3 which could mean that Gordon will be shipped out and we have evans playing the 2 spot.

"Sam Amick of USA Today has more details on the Pelicans and their interest in obtaining Tyreke Evans.

Evans has serious interest in signing with the Pelicans, and will likely agree to sign the deal if the Kings tell him later today in their meeting in Los Angeles that they will not match. Owner Vivek Ranadive, general manager Pete D'Alessandro and coach Michael Malone are expected to take part in the meeting, and a person with knowledge of the Kings' thinking said they are considering matching the offer if he agrees to sign it. Evans is visiting with the Detroit Pistons before seeing the Kings.

Evans won the 2009-10 NBA Rookie of the Year Award, but his scoring and passing production has declined each of his four years in the NBA. Last season he averaged 15.2 points, 4.4 rebounds and 3.5 assists a game for the Kings.

While the Pelicans were among six teams meeting with small forward Andre Iguodala today in Los Angeles, they made Evans a top priority when free agency began at 9:01 PT on Sunday night with an in-person meeting. If New Orleans lands Evans, it remains to be seen what it means for the rest of the roster that is now stacked with perimeter players."

Sam Amick ?@sam_amick
Kings owner Vivek Ranadive, GM Pete D'Alessandro, coach Michael Malone met with Tyreke Evans in LA & stressed how much they want him.

Sam Amick ?@sam_amick 35s
No clarity on whether they'd match offer from New Orleans, but Evans left encouraged by the message that was sent. He likes it in Sacto.

If they really wanted him that much, they'd offer him with as much veracity as we did.

Seems like they are just trying to persuade him not to accept our offer. Hopefully he makes the smart business move.

Well seems like they would match then, unless he is gonna give them a hometown discount.

Sounds like they'd most likely match if forced to.
