Good, then I hope they keep him. Noel, Davis, Gordon, Rivers, and Anderson on the floor together. Playoffs for as long as they are on the team.
good job on coming around to something like this.....I really like V's game (I think they probably do too though)

"we might make dollars, but we don't necessarily make sense"
"always be sincere....whether you mean it or not"
Still think they do it, if not throw in lopez and they would be crazy not to
let me go as far as to say this.....if we got McLemore, I would pull the trigger on V/Harkless for Gordon in a New York second
Couldnt, salaries wouldn't match, just thought about it, but anyway I see a ton of Paul George in harkless
oh, yes....of course something would have to be done to offset the salary differential.....I am simply talking about our roster with McLemore, Vucevic, and Harkless on with Gordon gone

Hypotheses are usually based on reality, Eric Gordon being injury free seems improbable.
I would say they are more commonly used on an unlikely but possible scenario.
Hypothetically speaking of course.
"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.'"

of course
Hey Guru,
I haven’t watched many SAC games but does Evans play better defence than Vasquez (is he quicker)?
If so, isn’t he an upgrade if we can get him in a sign and trade for about 20-25M over three years?
More than likely someone will over pay for Vasquez when it comes time so sign Evans and trade Vasquez for another future pick.
Well there is a difference between can he or does he, does he, not really, no one is sacramento does, can he? definetly, he is lightning quick and under monty we would be an awesome defender, before this year he could do absolutely everything, drive, pass, rebound, get to the FT line, only thing he couldnt do was hit the 3, this year he is shooting like 35% from 3, he is having a very good bounce back season
So your saying he would be an upgrade?
Over vasques? Without a doubt its not even close IMO, the thing is though he and austin are basically the same player, very quick, get to the rim, decent 3pointer, but not dependable jumpshot, now i like tyreke and gordon a lot as a combo, idk about tyreke and rivers, now tyreke and mclemore would be great, tyreke drives and kicks out to mclemore.
Basically im saying rivers at tyreke do the same thing. Rather not spend the money on tyreke and put it elsewhere even though he is one of my fave players, now if we could get an awesome deal for rivers then id maybe do it and have a tyreke gordon shabazz back court
But you COULD sign tyreke and make rivers our jamal crawford off the bench getting major minutes at the 1 and 2 for tyreke and gordon then draft shabazz or otto porter and sign someone like al jefferson for a lineup of
tyreke/rivers
gordon/rivers/mason
shabazz or porter/miller
davis/ryno
jefferson/lopez
im down with that
u sign tyreke and jefferson to 3 year deals, giving rivers and davis 3 years to develop and learn and after the first 2 years u can either use tyreke and jefferson as trade bait for expiring or let them ride out their contract since i beleive it will take 3 years until we are ready to compete, i think this is a really good idea and a very high possibility of happening.

I'd trade Vasquez on draft night if possible while his stocks are high.
They are both comparable except assists, but Evan's would probably average about the same amount on this team.
Not too mention hes is also 3 years younger.
younger, way more potential, way better on D, tyreke is playing less minutes and is scoring more and rebounding more while shooting better form the field AND from 3, his assists are lower but when ur 2 guard creates for himself and is better w the ball in his hands like gordon is u dont need a 10apg point guard, its kind of like westbrook and durant, they dont get many assists but they win games because u cant double anyone.I'd trade Vasquez on draft night if possible while his stocks are high.

Me too but I think Rivers is about 1-2 years away before he starts at either PG or SG.
By then both Gordon and Evans could be gone.
I think Evans serves the same purpose for Rivers as Lopez has/will for Davis until he moves to C.
If he doesn’t pan out at PG and Rivers over takes him in that department then he would be handy at 6 or 7th man off the bench to play either the 1, 2 or 3.
Monty likes players who can play multiple roles and aren’t just one dimensional.
So I would be keen in a sign and trade for Evans which involves Vasquez.
Either that or another pick in this year’s draft or a future draft, Vasquez won’t stay beyond his rookie contract especially as a backup so trade while his stocks are high.
He may get injured in his final year (touch wood he doesn’t) but **** happens.
Evans/Rivers
Gordon/2013 Rookie
Budinger/Aminu
Davis/Anderson
Lopez/Smith
That’s a nice team!!!
Will a Gordon-Granger make sense for both squad?
Gordon goes to where he really wants, Granger comes home to NOLA. I dont really think about the skills comparison, but the fact that Granger has a shorter deal makes me want him more than Gordon
Gordon signed a contract for 4 years and it will be up to the Pelican's on what they do with Gordon.
Unless Gordon officially comes out a says he wants a trade he will be here next year.
The Pelicans can do better than Granger.
The Pels hold the cards.
great thing about tyreke, while he is only 23, he is a league vet... but i dont like budinger as a starter, dont like his defense, im thinking we draft either bazz or porter and put them at the 3.
tyreke/rivers
gordon/rivers/mason
bazz or porter/miller
AD/ryno
Jefferson/Lopez
Indiana would do that in a heart beat and not think about it for a second, granger is old and will continue to get banged up from being old, a possibility to pair gordon, george and hibbert? thats just not fare, all they need to do it trade up and take burke in in 2 years they will be unbeatable, if gordon isnt in a wheel chair. anyway indiana has nothing to lose from it. I wouldnt do it if i were the hornets GM
Agreed, i want more than granger, but theres a flip side, we get out of his contract and get a player to mentor bazz or porter and then expire freeing us up 16 mil in cap... so while i say i wouldnt do it, if they threw in a draft pick i'd do it in a split second.
What would their pick actually land us?
Close to a second rounder and Granger......no thanks.
