...or, perhaps, a mid-season trade? http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_y...lug=aw-gaygrizzlies110209&prov=yhoo&type=lgns
Absolutely not. I get tired of bringing in offensive weapons when we proved already, we sucked last season guarding the perimeter. It was almost embarrassing.
Gay would be awesome. I met him at an olive garden in manchester ct when he played for uconn. He would also kinda heal the durant sting... oden/gay > durant
gay should be. hes exactly what the blazers love and need. a scoring SF with potential fuck.... i forgot they can match
Match what? We've got no cap-space this summer. Secondly you do realize he's basically Travis Outlaw with more hype and more touches right?
sign and trade.... we are also losing blake, joel and outlaw... miller/rudy roy/webster gay/batum la/? oden/? gay is sooooo much better then outlaw. hes exactly what we need. a 3rd scorer
Well I wouldn't say that....he's significantly better at driving. A bit worse at shooting the jumper, but just as clueless on defense.
Oh? That's what Portland needs? A player who put up a 15.1 PER, while scoring at a .541 true shooting percentage (which factors in free throws and the greater value of three-pointers) and a fairly average (for position) 9.1 Rebound Rate with questionable defense? That does sound like a solid wing role-player who can score a bit. Oh, sorry. That was Outlaw. Here's Gay: 15.3 PER / .528 TS% / 9.1 Rebound Rate. With questionable defense. Of course, Gay did have a slightly better Assist Rate. However, he also had a greater turnover rate. Rudy Gay: Travis Outlaw with a better name brand. And the concomitant higher cost.
He's currently the 3rd/4th option on the Grizzlies. He should have taken the money while he could get it.
amazing how some fans never learn. just like we couldnt trade sergio or batum ask any gm in the nba... outlaw or rudy gay i would bet anything.... theres no hesitation
Good analysis. "I can't refute the fact that Gay hasn't actually out-produced Outlaw, so lol guys!!!!111"
I would be VERY interested in Rudy Gay. He and Brandon = new age Jordan\Pippen. Matched with Batum and Rudy coming off the bench? Sign me up. What would it take to get him?
He definitely should have. I think that he is going to be one of a large number of guys who are going to regret turning down big contracts when the new CBA kicks in. Ed O.
You're not saying Outlaw for Gay. You're saying Outlaw, Blake, and Joel for Gay. If you want to switch Outlaw and Gay straight up be my guest. I'm not a huge fan of Blake, but I think Joel will be coming back.
