David Lee, Dallas 2016 pick, and two (non-Philly) 2nd rounders for Tyreke Evans. Who's down?
EDIT: two SECOND, not first rounders
This is a horrible idea. I rather resign Evan Turner who is the same player with no injury history. Considering we could keep Evan Turner for probably 4 years 20-24 million a year. While Evan is going to cost us 10 million alone next year.
saying Turner and Reke are the same player is insulting to Evans. Turner at best is a poor man's Evans, but Tyreke on his best day is capable of playing as well as any wing in the league on both sides of the ball. If you wanna hem and haw about his injury history that's a fair point but even in this injury shortened year, Evans VORP is still above Turner's.
as for the trade, short of trading this year's Nets pick i'm all for doing whatever it would take to bring in a guy like Tyreke, and i've been pushing for this idea for a while now. the guy is a great pick and roller, is comfortable running an up tempo offense (though his ability to cover the ultra quick PGs of the league may be questionable), and most importantly he finishes at the rim.
