Tyreke Evans

[HoustonPelicans]

A team in the East that should be a playoff team and also wants to have cap space for next year, would consider trading for Tyreke.

That's why I keep looking at the Celtics.

They could bench him until he's 100%, and save him for the 2nd half of the season if necessary. That team doesn't want to commit to long term salary with any of the guys still on the market, and doesn't have openings on the roster to sign a bunch of guys to smaller one year deals. Tyreke fits perfectly financially, and potentially as another scorer off the bench.

Best case scenario is he's ready at the beginning of the season and has a 6th Man of the Year type campaign for a team that could be the 2nd seed in the East.

People are eyeing Sullivan in a S/T, and he'd be exactly the kind of player the Pelicans have gone after this offseason.

You know I think you're absolutely right, this is starting to look like the most likely move. Tyreke for Sully S&T. I'd welcome it

[DroopyDawg]

Sully could replace Ryno as the backup stretch 4.

[Hugeaux II]

With Wade off their books, does Miami need to send anything out to bring Tyreke in? Not necessarily saying we should give him away for nothing, just wondering if it is technically possible. With so many player moves and salaries it's not like the ESPN trade machine is accurate. It's not even accurate at quiet times of the year. Mostly just wondering since it would make 3 team trades easier, like Tyreke goes to Miami and we send Alexis somewhere and get back a player from that 3rd team

What about Jrue Holiday and Tyreke Evans for Goran Dragic and Josh McRoberts? Dragic is on a bargain 3 year $15 million per year contract.

Dragic is already 30 and I'm not sure if he even plays defence. That contract is looking good in this climate doe.

Holiday and Evans have the bodies of 40 year olds

[Impose]

God no to Dragic, stay the course with Jrue.

I'm thinking with Sac's logjam of bigs and lack of PG's Reke to Sac for Koufos & Skal could be reasonable value return. Koufos will likely start here, Skal can be developed for 3 years and may become a very good rotation player.

Koufos / Asik / Ajinca
AD / Diallo / Skal
Hill / Q-Pon / Dante
Hield / Moore
Jrue / Galloway / Frazier

Just an idea I thought may work.

Shoot, if we could just get Skal for Reke I'd be down.

[Eman5805]

Since this is the last move we're probably making this offseason of note...hope we knock this out while I slumber.

Getting Skal would be interesting. Wonder if it could also throw in Eric Moreland just for good measure. Could easily dump him at some point in the future, but eh. He's a bit light on the scale, but his length is significant.

[AD23nEG10]

reading up on Langston... looks like people don't see him as a primary backup PG. Tyreke is the only guy that could handle the ball off the bench as of right now assuming Frazier isn't back

[NMThreeMVP]

If we can trade with the Kings, I really want to get Willie Cauley Stein. His ability to defend would slide in nicely with this group.

[frankatank109]

Yeah, if we could get WCS for Reke, that would just be perfect. The Kings have such a logjam at center, and almost no starter-quality guards, so I think we have a legitimate shot at working something out. WCS and AD would be the most terrifying frontcourt in the league.

[Mythrol]

If we're going to dream of unrealistic things then why limit yourself to just that. Let's dream big! Reke for LBJ in a S&T where LeBron takes 10m for 4 years. Oh and the Cave have to throw in a 1st round pick too.

They have something like 4 centers, 2 of whom are rookies and one of whom is a superstar, surely they have to give up at least one. And this is the Kings we're talking about man, I fully believe they're capable of making a trade like that. I admit it's not incredibly likely, but its hardly out of the realm of possibility.

I keep telling people this. Langston and Moore and more SG than PG. Moore plays like Delly and Langston is a good defender with a unreliable offensive game. He's not a playmaker or ball handler.

We don't want Galloway to be the backup PG. He's a spot up shooter who can create for himself, but he's not a PG. I can see hime being used a lot in a 3 guard lineup during rotations, but I don't want him to be the backup PG. I really want him to be a SG with Frazier being the legitimate backup PG.

That's the thing - it doesn't look like we've got the money to retain Frazier at this point so my Q is who's the backup PG on this team? Galloway & Moore kind of overlap as backup SGs so if you have a guy who can guard 3s but play the 1 on offense (Tyreke) it at least makes a little more sense to me as to why we got both of those guys. But then of course that opens up questions like what happens to Q-Pon in a situation like that? Seems too short to play the 4

So then what do you think the Kings could get for WCS?

More than a player that has had 3 knee surgeries in a year and only has 1 year left on his deal.

Tyreke, Ajinca, and a 2nd round pick? I like WCS, but he's a backup big on a team with A LOT of bigs. I can't imagine the price is really all that high.

Do you know who else similarly fits this description who was recently traded? Derrick Rose.

Bulls got a bag full of garbage for DRose. SOmebody will trade for Tyreke, but if we trade him... I expect a similar bag of garbage. Only smaller.

I would've taken RoLo/Grant for Reke

Tyreke is not Rose.
