Around the League

There's so many rumors swirling around. I've read Monroe wants to play for the Pelicans, but that could just be conjecture from Pels fans, or whomever. They wouldn't have the cap space to sign Moose without facilitating a sign and trade with Detroit. If that is in fact his preferred destination.

i do recall that moose does have a soft spot for NOL as his hometown and i believe most his family is still there. So NOL is very much in play, and if we end up gettin ryan anderson back , that would be a great consolation prize(though his healt ). Someone mentioned tyreke evans, i think SVG says no if he's included, and quite frankly i am weary of any guards who's shooting form looks like that

His shooting is clearly a weakness but the rest of his game is nice, we could use him.

can we use him off the bench, sure

will he be effective in our offense, no

Does he cost too much, yes

The fact that he can't shoot from the SF, which SVG obviously values, automatically removes him from the conversation. Last SF/PF that couldn't shoot we paid to leave.

Or he could run our offense better than the PG we have now, plus he can defend the 1, 2 or 3. His contract is cheaper than what we are likely to give RJ too, plus he actually gets to the line, something we don't have currently.

I believe he's as much of a pg as stuckey was a pg

His contract is cheaper than what we are likely to give RJ too, plus he actually gets to the line, something we don't have currently.

there's a reason his contract is cheaper
He doesn't compliment our players
he hurts our spacing

Meeks i believe gets to the line quite a bit.

i get the talent you see in him, what i am trying to point out is that Evans is not a sVG type player for his system

Westbrook with his 4th triple double in a row... 49 points 16 boards 10 dimes 3 steals and a block.

Unreal.

By the way, Stuckey seems to finally have added a respectable 3-point shot. Anyone else notice that?

I didn’t want to start a new thread because what I’m about to post isn’t all that important. But…

Bleacher report has had Thomas Robinson on the Pistons’ roster for almost a week now and I have not heard or read anywhere that Pistons has acquired this guy. It makes one question the credibility of bleacherreport.com. If this is an error, and, I’m certain it is because Thomas Robinson is also on the Sixers roster according to NBA.com and ESPN.com.

Bleacher Report doesn't really have credibility other than the usual clickbait titles with little substance to back their usual outlandish claims and rumors. So yeah, you pretty much answered your own question.

On a different note: Westbrook is beasting this year. I can't believe how great he has been, what a transformation.

Hoopshypes salary page had him on our payroll, but only like a partial amount. Take those websites for what they are worth.

as far as stuckey, good for stuckey.
