It seems pretty obvious that he won't opt out


I know you don't want to let yourself believe it's possible, but it's possible.

If you said "trade him to the East for an expiring", I'd be on board. But trading him to OKC is complicated. It weakens the Pelicans bid for a playoffs spot while possibly flipping OKC from falling out of the playoff race to fighting for the very same spot we are. You also are potentially giving OKC a Harden replacement, at least a better Harden replacement than Jeremy Lamb. If Fit EG = Healthy EG, you just strengthened one of your main competitors in the West. Unless my medical team with a less than stellar track record assures me Gordon's knee will self destruct soon, I don't think I could do a deal that sends him to OKC.

well we could make this a "would you" thread.

Like...would you take on Gerald Wallace's shittastic extra year if Jeff Green comes with it for EG?

He isn't opting out unless he averages 22+ ppg to fool some team into giving him a max.
