3-way to get Rudy Gay

Piston Pete · Post #1 » by **Piston Pete** » Tue Jul 9, 2013 3:10 pm

Pistons Out:
PG/SG Stuckey (expiring)
PF Villanueva (expiring)
SF/PF Jerebko
SF Singler

Pistons In:
SF Gay
PG Lowry

Lowry / Knight / Bynum
Gay / KCP / English
Smith / Gay / Middleton
Monroe / Smith / Mitchell
Drummond / Monroe / Kravtsov

Lakers Out:
PG Nash

Lakers In:
PG/SG Stuckey (expiring)
SF Singler

Stuckey
Kobe
Singler
Pau
Kaman
(EVERYONE but Singler is an expiring)

Raps Out:
SF Gay
PG Lowry

Raps In:
PG Nash
PF Villanueva (expiring)
SF/PF Jerebko

Nash
Ross
DeRozan
Amir/ CV
Val

We get Gay and Lowry while facilitating Nash back to Canada for the Raps and get another expiring and an extremely cheap young asset to the Lakers.

I'd do it. Lakers say no

Perfect. Toronto NEEDS Nash and Wiggins on the same team.

I would do it, raptors might do it but there is no way the lakers do it. I don't think they want to get rid of nash.

Rudy Gay is another slasher with an unreliable shot.

With Smith in the fold I have no idea why we're even discussing him.

Can you please rename this thread "Piston Pete's Gay Threeway" ??

The deal is fine for us, but I don't know about Gay's three point shooting. Seems like our prerequisite now.

I wouldn't mind getting Gay but I think it would probably involve dealing Monroe somewhere so our 3/4/5 positions don't get backlogged. I guess if Mo really has some discipline and organization he can do it something like this:

Gay 36/Smoove 12
Smoove 24/Moose 24
AD 36/Moose 12

It would be very difficult to keep everyone satisfied with time and i don't know how Moose would feel coming off the bench but I guess it could work.

side note, can anyone think of a trade that include Monroe being traded for a good young SG?

Make Gay play SG.

That would take us from the worst shooting team in the NBA, to the worst shooting team in the history of basketball

Over-exaggerate much?

yes i apologize, but if i'm getting another wing i'd rather it be someone who can shoot 3 balls

although i do like the trade value wise and i think it could possibly work.

FTR, Gay is a career 34% 3-point shooter.

And he actually shot higher %'s early in his career when he shot them more often.

Lakers would never do that trade.

Guys on T&T board, including Lakers fans, disagree with you.
