Tucker for Motiejunas and then trade Frye!

Go go go!

Rockets could use a solid sg/sf off the bench right?

? Motiejunas is a beast man.

is per 36 last season was 17/6/2

He averaged 16/8 in summer league

This would be a steal.

Getting rid of Frye is a bad, bad, bad idea.

You can do whatever you want with Frye although the smart choice would be to trade him if we acquire some1 like Motiejunas.

All I care about is Motiejunas...A young player on a 3 year contract that has potential to be a starter.

Plumlee/Motie front court would be awesome!

Is he a perimeter oriented big man too or does he have an inside game? Idk much about him that's why I'm asking.

Intriguing teams as a defensive-minded center, Ty Walker has met with the Oklahoma City Thunder, Golden State Warriors and Philadelphia 76ers during this month’s NBA D-League Showcase, league sources told RealGM.

At 7-feet, Walker is averaging 8.3 rebounds and 3.7 blocks per game with the Maine Red Claws, recording a D-League season-high of eight blocks earlier in the season. His wingspan (7-foot-6) and standing reach (9-foot-5) have left similarities to to JaVale McGee and Hasheem Thabeet, respectively, on the defensive end, and he helped hold Malcolm Thomas to just nine points on four of 13 shooting in Tuesday’s game against the Austin Toros.

Walker had also received interest as a potential training camp invitation in September.

For the season, Walker is averaging seven points in 27.5 minutes. The 24-year-old went undrafted in 2012 after four years at Wake Forest.


Sounds like the next DeAndre Jordan....

He plays in the paint although e can knock down the three so he can stretch the floor abit although you wouldn't want him shooting it to often. Kinda like Pau Gasol and his occasional threes.

Here is his shot chart from last season.

Dream scenarios for me would be as follows:

Okafor + two 1st picks for Love.

Len (or Goodwin if interested) + 1st and 2nd round picks for Hayward.

Bledsoe/Dragic/Hayward/Love/Plumlee

We would run most teams out of the gym for the next 5+ years if we stayed together like the Spurs' big 3 did.

Len could end up the next Tim Duncan....unlikely but McD picked him high due to his rapi improvement from year to year... Tim Duncan wasn't the beast he was in his first year in college... Len could be sitting at 40% capability and be a dominant player once he gets to his 80-100% potential.

Len and Goodwin are players 3-4 down the line.
The suns have cap room, expiring and picks to improve the current team. I think leave the 19 and 20 year old rookies alone until atleast suns know what type of player they can be.


And Love is incredibly unlikely to be traded this season, wolves can make the playoffs.

Celtics seems keen on Hayward also ...


I think Hayward is a 17/6/6 player SG/SF... White Scottie Pippen lite lol.

Steal him now or in the off season, build around his strengths and don't look back.

3 first round picks + Filler!!
Ironically the Jazz needs SF though...
They have Burke, Burks as the guards...

Good idea, BOOM!

Although that would never happen I think it's fair value...

Lets sign him again! He's a steal!

...

What ever team ends up getting Motie is going to have a career starting PF imo. And its going to cost them almost nothing.

I think when you suggest something the only way for it to get traction or a response is if you follow that up with some idiotic hair brained idea on how to get it done. Otherwise, what's the point right? :roll:

Tucker (or Frye) is far from costing "nothing".
