To me, that would be an insult for Reke for his skills just to play behind MC11. A delusional fantasy at best.

Would love to obtain Tyreke Evans even if it meant dealing Rudy Gay or Mike Conley Jr.

Backcourt of Tyreke Evans and Tony Allen would be very cool.

Sacramento experimented with Evans at the SF position but I prefer him at the PG position.

Although the consensus is that because of the impending ownership change that it is unlikely that any big deals will not happen now.

That was based off a blog post from Gary Robinson, the online editor for the Commercial Appeal. It was idle speculation. As much as it would be nice, IMO, to have Tyreke on the Grizz, it's not happening. Were it to happen, it would be primarily fill OJ's minutes and spell Conley - not "back him up".
