Fake Trade Thread III

If there's a player out there with Harden breakout potential it's Evan Turner. I think with our youth, draft assets and need for a legit scorer we match up well with them.

Would anyone trade MKG + DET pick for Turner?

Hell no. Turner has been a horrible NBA player with the exception of the first few games this season. A move like that would set us back years.

Edit: Besides, why trade for someone when you can get him in free agency? Him and the 76ers front office basically hate each other

I'm almost in agreement with 'MasterIchiro'. I still believe Evan Turner could turn into a star in this league. I thought he was a certified all-star when he was drafted out of Ohio State. After Doug Collins pretty much belittled his style of play and confidence over the past few years in Philly, a change of scenery might make Turner the most improved player in the league similar to his early sample size this season. Nothing that Turner is doing right now is a aberration. He just lacked consistency playing out of position and carrying a extra 15-20lbs that took away from his explosiveness

Im not saying he can't be a good player. Im just saying why trade for someone who most certainly will be available in free agency. The 76ers front office act like they hate the man.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Sixers front office match any offer for him if he keeps up his current production throughout the season.

Trading MKG + a 1st for Turner is ridiculous.

I wouldn't trade either one for Turner. You people scare me.

I think Turner would be a great acquisition for the Bobcats, but I missed the part where 'MasterIchiro' proposed trading MKG and a 1st rounder for him. If I'm Charlotte, I wouldn't trade anything more than Henderson and a 1st rounder. That's about equal value

Lol thats basically why I vehemently said no. MKG and a first rounder for Turner is outrageous.

If Turner keeps his line up at 20-5-5 MKG + DET pick is about right. We'll see though. I'm talking trade deadline. Nothing will happen this instant.

Elden Payton · Post #471 » by **Elden Payton** » Thu Nov 7, 2013 12:12 am

MKG is our best perimiter defender and post defender, he's the only elite rebounder for his position on our team and he is our barometer in regards to energy and toughness.

No way we trade him for a guy who is currently having his first exceptional season and will want big money, Turner will also be 26 coming off his rookie deal.

Turner is about 5-6 years older than MKG.

That trade is horrible.

Turner with another big night.

Think about this: If we did that, either Hendo or Turner would have to play the SF. FAIL

ET and MKG? Interesting. Trading MKG and a 1st rounder for a guy going into a new contract is an overpay unless that guy is for sure a stud.

Turner is no 20 5 and 5 player, his averages will come down to around 14 3and 5 still good numbers but not worth MKG and a 1st round pick no way no how and MKG is far better on defense, Turner doesn't even have a block yet....and his numbers are bloated right now because he taking so many shots (17per game) his career average is 9shots per game and averaging 10ppg ....double the shots double the points and he is shooting 55% he wont keep that up either his career average is 43%

MKG is better than Turner and has elite defensive potential

Sig bet he doesn't average those numbers during the all star break?

Jeremy Lamb had a productive evening as well.

I might be down for trading Hendo if it's the right deal but we're not going to deal MKG for neither Turner or Lamb.

I would be down for a Hendo for Evans trade in some form. Neither is great with the 3 ball, but Evans has great handles, can dish, and has a nice to-the-hoop game. As someone else mentioned, Hendo is very inconsistent at being an average starting SG in this league. This being stated, I don't know why the 6'ers would have any interest (apart from Evans being seemingly unhappy) unless a pick was involved and depending on that pick, I'm far less certain about the trade.

76'ers are a team looking to strip down. They probably have no use for 3 years of Henderson. They're looking for young prospects and draft assets. Henderson doesn't really fit their plan - convenient for us to dump him but doesn't make sense for them.

We can make it a teaser with Lamb averaging 15+ points and 38%+ from 3pt. What do you say?
