I wonder if Eric Gordon would be of interest to the Lakers: he'd be a natural fit to take over Danny Green's spot.
yeah, dude's got a bad injury track record, and he's getting paid 3rd star-ish money for a while. if they had draft assets, maybe it makes sense, but...
He agreed to an extension last summer. Scroll down past his current contract on Sportrac and it shows the details of his extension, it runs through the ‘23/‘24 season, I didn’t know until it was pointed out here either.
yeah, i thought tucker was up this year, but he's actually up next year, which is a huge help to houston, who'd have had to overpay him if he was a FA now. but they caved too easily on gordon. i did just read that the last year is non-guaranteed, though. still, he's locked in at 3 years for 18 per. you'd have to attach things to move him.
It's Morey. He celebrated after 1 game because to him, that is a proof of concept. He has the statistical proof that his approach could beat the Lakers, that is good enough for him. The rest of us watch basketball. Bill Simmons has his own problems right now but I've always loved what he calls Daryl Morey: Dork Elvis.
