exactly. In all of these situations we are trading the dollar for some quarters. i wouldn't trade the best member of our backcourt for a lesser talent unless the talent drop-off was very minimal in comparison the $ savings (while still not sacrificing too much contract length either).Originally Posted by HornetGuru
i swear some of y'all are just trying to make our western conference opponents better (and the rockets?! theyre in our division!)
I would make that trade to the Rockets. it's not like trading to an opponent in our own division is out of the question (what would you not take James Harden if the Rockets offered him, just because we would be playing for the rockets?). Parsons and Asik are young healthy guys that would help our team in the long run, more than Gordon alone.
If you Jimmer it, they will come.
Houston would not trade Asik and Parsons for Gordon.
Of course they wouldn't. That's a lopsided trade. They finally have the team they want.
Oops. I read Greivis and Lopez for some reason. In any case, I'd still do the deal from our perspective. Looks pretty good now for us.
I don't know what you're trying to ask there.. but thats besides the point - they would never trade us Harden (and thats my point)
but no, i'm not going to have my backcourt take a major hit so that we can marginally upgrade a front court position (lopez --> asik) while paying him more than twice as much for that marginal upgrade, especially since our front court is our strength at the moment.
and while parsons would help us and at a very nice price, its still not worth losing a gordon-level player over. basically, money aside, its a severe downgrade
Anyone want Burke a little bit more after watching this friggin game?
Wherehappens.
For some reason I really feel we land a top 3 pick.
I am saying trading within the division happens. We have made a few trades with Memphis and Houston both. No point in saying " I would never make a trade within our division." Because its going to happen.

I want Burke on this team, but I am a Michigan fan.
Excuse me? Greivis Vasquez had 17 points and 8 assists tonight. Forget about the hero ball 3 straight possessions down the stretch. Those are very good numbers, and he's top-3 in the league in assists!Anyone want Burke a little bit more after watching this friggin game?
ASSISTS!!!
Sensing some sarcasm lol
"I don't know if people know — I dislocated my pinkie finger. And [Tyreke] told me, 'You wanna go home or you wanna be here?' I want to be here. And he said, 'All right, then go tape it up and let's play. Let's go. We not stoppin' at no stores. Straight gas. That's what we do, just keep going.'"

thats not what i'm saying. Those where small scale trades. I'm not going trade an all-star level player (and the current best player on our team) to a division rival for 2 role players, regardless of money saved.
Trade Gordon for Asik and parsons?? R u guys serious?? My goodness lol...give Gordon an off season to get his legs under him and work out with the team and get in sync then talk trades involving him. I'm getting so sick of seeing all these trades involving our best player on the team for role players.
Your just a hater bro. He is top 3 in assist in the WHOLE LEAGUE!!!! As long as he is a top assist guy nothing else matters.
You're right. Houston would never make that trade.
Emeka Okafor - Joe Smith - Carmelo Anthony - Manu Ginobili - Jason Williams
Al Jefferson - James Posey - Aaron McKie - Shaun Livingston
Your right but not for the reasons your hinting at tho. They have their team made up and they have their 2 guard in place. That's why they don't make the trade.
They don't make that trade because we would be destroying them and they have a pretty smart GM.
correct
Am I understanding u correctly!?? U think that trade makes us better?? I'm confused...if so then pls tell me who plays the 2??
Not at all. Their GM goes by advanced stats and Gordon's advanced metrics have never been that good, especially compared to a guy like Harden. Basically, he wouldn't want to have Gordon's contract even if they didn't have Harden.
The same gm that gave Jeremy Lin superstar money?? That bright gm?? Yea ok...whatever u say lol
3 year 25 million is not superstar money. Pretty silly comment.
He's over paid putti like that. I just put it like Carmelo put it.
Dell would NOT trade Gordon for asik n parsons if it presented itself. I can guarantee u that right now. Wouldn't happen no way no how. That is a bad trade for us. Bottom line.
His value went down after the Harden trade. Lin depends on a high usage rate which is why he was so successful in NY without Melo. Morey didn't have Harden yet before they signed Lin, plus the Lin signing was alot about business as well due to the high Asian population in Houston.
