Free Agents: Tyreke Evans

Morey doesn't like Tyreke's game. And I am glad.

 

Wouldn't mind having him replace both delfino and Garcia.. And possibly brooks for second unit.

 

Imagine Tyreke Evans as part of Houston's small lineup: Lin, Harden, Evans, Parson & Josh Smith

It would be lethal to defend if every single player can handle the ball, shoot the 3 or take it to the rim.

 

I would only want him in a sixth man type of role and even then...I just don't think his game meshes with us.

 

I thought we already had a dribble-drive penetrator who can't shoot and half of Clutchfans despises him

 

As a player who won ROY, I have, or had, high expectations for him.

But yes, he would make a good sixth man off the bench, I agree with you. At the right price, of course.

I always imagine White would play like him.

 

With the Rockets, it would really depend on salary, but I would love to sign him with the money we get from passing on Delfino and Garcia. Of course, it could restrict us for the future to go after a bigger star so if that were the case, then I say no. (I know you weren't suggesting the Rockets sign him, OP)

In terms of potential, though, he had more believers than Harden after a couple years so I could see him fulfilling his star potential here in a much better organization. His streaky shooting is an issue that people are citing, but his FG% is actually higher than Harden (48%) and his 3 point % is only a few off the pace (34%) so it's not like he's atrocious, but from watching him, he could definitely use some work on it.

 

What makes you say that? Just curious.

 

You definately go for him. I'm tired of picking dleague all-stars.

Players we could've picked up, Nate dog, j.r smith, Kenyon, bird man,......

 

Reke is probably gonna command an 8-figure salary. It's hard to justify paying that much to a sixth-man. Also, would he be okay coming off the bench? Lots of players aren't willing to swallow their pride and do that.

 

I like Tyreke's game but the he's on the bottom of the pecking
pole as far as Morey is concerned. There is one player becoming
a free agent, you know the one who likes to wear capes and thinks
he can fly......

The dude cannot shoot and until he shows he can I don't think he would help the Rockets...He is a ball dominating guard and we have that already in Harden.It would make more sense to go after Gordon than Evans. Gordon can at least hit a 15-20 ft. jumper............Evans is a good player but not great and deserves to be on a better team not maned the ROCKETS.

 

Selfish stat-w****. If you like the Harden dribble the clock and pass it with 4 seconds, you're going to just adore him.

 

Usually to be classified as great, you have to have high basketball IQ, a sweet shot, or at least a hard-working attitude. Tyreke is 0 for 3. The Rockets are hardly a team in need, and even if we were, I'd still say pass on this guy. I hate the fact that the Kings basically pumped the ball into him 50 times a game his rookie season just to pimp out the fact that they had a rookie that posted 20/5/5. It was sad to watch the fans in Sacramento celebrate that.

 

there are so many teams with space this off season, any team without a quality situation to walk into will be overpaying.

 

Harden do what he do in order to do it.

 

Evans is basically Steve Francis 2.0. A physically talented player who doesn't play smart, makes poor decisions, is inefficient, has poor court vision, and is not very coachable. He looks like a star but does not make the team much better. He is the opposite of what Morey looks for in a player.
