I’d 100% do it if i were Memphis. I like Hayward. He’s a good veteran wing fit. He can still give you 15-17. And you get a first pick. I wish the sixers had the cap space to do it. Hayward would be a nice fit here. 

We need a bench scorer and an expiring next year so won't mess with Bane extension and hope to get someone that drops or Mark Williams

Just good ol Benny left

Pistons would be smart to do it tbh  get an extra pick  he comes off the book after 23-24. can try to deal him at the deadline for more assets and he becomes valuable as an expiring contract the following offseason

Detroit basically gave him away for nothing. He'd have been an improvement over what we have here. 

no cap room to add a guy like grant.

when it was said they were shopping thybulle ant 23 in a 3 team framework for a rotational player, and you remember the report of them wanting Tucker, and Gordon, that was kinda the suspicion. The 3 team trade for rotational player was going to be for Gordon.

Its amazing that Morey is only going after his old rockets players, and the 6ers are ok with his plan. 

I hope it works. I also hope than when these 3 year deals run out for his players, he wont be here for the rebuild because he apparently doesnt know how to do anything else other than collect former rockets players. 

 

Interesting that Portland is willing to make a straight up deal for Thybulle. They have a bunch of players I like, who are also younger. Of course, Morey will pass on all better deals to get his old rockets guys.

I wanted Gordon like 5 years ago. He’s always been a good player.

He’s still a solid 6th man off the bench. Shot 41% from 3 last year and averaged just under 14 ppg on a bad rockets team. I have less of an issue with Gordon on a 2 year contract making what he does than i do with pj tucker tbh. Gordon gives the sixers what they’ve lacked off their bench for years which is a guy who can score. The issue really is the sixers have a hole currently at starting SF. PJ tucker at 37 isn’t the answer and if they think he’s the answer they are going to be in trouble. He’s fine if he’s coming off the bench.

You are always pretending like you are on the phone when the trades are being proposed. Calm down for a bit. You did it before when the Haliburton deal was not available for Ben.

he will be a good 6th man. D and shooting off the bench. 

Tucker replacing Green, remains to be seen how that goes..., Gordon as a 6th man is a giant improvement over guys like Shake, and Kork in that role.

I like gordon too...he'd be really solid off the bench & has a nice all around game.

If those moves pan out, we’ll have one of the oldest rosters in the league.

They would have to likely trade Harris to acquire two starters which is asking a lot. They’d downgrade at the 4 but upgrade/get a starter at SF. I don’t mind tucker as a bench guy. And ditto with Gordon. But there has to be another shoe to drop even with those guys cause we have 4 out of 5 starters. Tucker isn’t holding up all year and in the playoffs as a starter

I dont know how Gordan has held up recently but he was injury prone for a chunk of his career too. Always gotta have a bunch of injury concerns on the roster.

Played 57 last year. And year before 27. However tough time gage if the rockets purposefully didn’t play him at times cause they were trying to tank to be as bad as possible.

Gordon is a very boom or bust move...

And 2 old rockets players, who are actually pretty old, and very old is very underwhelming. 

Im not sure the improvement with Gordon added to our bench counterbalances the massive downgrade if you have to trade Harris to also afford the PJ Tucker move. Im really pretty sure it doesnt. These moves would be ok rolls of the dice as part of something much larger. As of right now, this is the kind of disaster youd expect from Colangelo.

The sixers problems are far less morey and more the stupidity of their past in letting butler walk, giving horford $25 mil per year and now have nothing to show on the roster for that dumb decision and trading then signing Harris to the extension he got. Those 3 mistakes absolutely hurt the sixers. Can throw in the dumb mikal bridges trade on top of all of it. I’d add there was no reason to trade up from 3 to 1 to get fultz. It was known the lakers were going to take Lonzo the local kid. You were going to get Tatum or fultz. Both fit a need. Add on Boston was intent on taking Tatum from the start so they would’ve gotten fultz anyway. Those moves have hamstrung the sixers ability to make better moves. That’s like 5 massive mistakes. You can make one or two of them, but when you get to 5 you usually pay the price for it.

That stuff is all in the past.

Right now, you have a complete buffoon at GM who has shown he can do, or is willing to do absolutely nothing but chase ancient players who he had on his former rockets team. He has passed on numerous opportunities to get better players. But he holds our for those players, and overpays to get them. 

He is a huge problem right now. And there were other problems, but those are over and right now he is THE problem. 

Gordon makes around $20 mill per...so I'm not sure how that would work. Green's $10 mill only gets them halfway there.

Your problem is your past decisions are playing a role in what you can do now and what assets you have now to make the moves and have the flexibility to do better things. That’s a HUGE issue. Lol

they still could have done way different stuff. they werent forced in to Harden, and the plan of Tucker and Gordon. Other options existed. Other options exist this summer. Morey consistently chooses the worst options just to get his guys.
