    Will Suns make a move before the trade deadline?

    um no lets see pros good passer in the open court good defensive player cons one of the worst shooters of all time poor finisher bad playmaker in the half court when defense is set pretty bad ball handler/dribbler for a PG has shown no ability to break down a defense Honestly I would rather...

    Will Suns make a move before the trade deadline?

    The major difference with the Suns and Pelicans is that Booker unlike Davis already might not even be the biggest talent on the Suns anymore. The Pelicans spent years doing nothing, who was the last rookie the Pelicans drafted that did anything since Davis they drafted basically nobody. Well ok...

    Will Suns make a move before the trade deadline?

    This article makes zero sense. Why would we trade Ayton for a young top 10 big man? Name 10 young big man better than Ayton - you can't especially if you factor in potential, contract and health. It makes no sense to trade Ayton even for Embiid.

    Is the next draft any good besides the 1st pick?

    LOL Did you watch the last 6 games without Ayton? Ayton is having a HUGE impact. Advanced stats show that. Ayton is having probably the best rookie season for a big man since Tim Duncan and still we have to read non-sense like this stuff. Amazing.

    Will Suns make a move before the trade deadline?

    Anyone but Ayton, Bridges and Booker should be available in order of trade likeliness from top (most likely) to bottom (least likely) Oubre : we are a capspace team and he has a 10M$ caphold so that makes it bad for us to hold onto him as it costs us a lot of capspace, he can't be packaged...

    Will Suns make a move before the trade deadline?

    that is way too much Holiday is turning 29 and makes 26M$ Giving up TJ Warren a likely top 5 pick and another top 7 protected pick for Holiday is absurd. A top 5 pick alone should be able to get you a borderline allstar, this pick could easily be #2 or #3.

    In that case wait for the draft Doubt they can get Zion for AD but maybe the Knicks would do it

    Sarver's spending has nothing to do with that, we are not even close to luxury tax and will spend one way or another anyway.

    The 2018-2019 Around the NBA thread

    I don't think that is true. Overall the league is hurting from having the lense only on the Lakers and Warriors. ESPN 20 years ago did some sports reporting, nowadays it is only entertainment and they have the broadcasting rights to the NBA they should be neutral and give all teams equal...

    can hardly do anything about it if a team decides to take the risk on Davis not re-signing same thing OKC did with George and Toronto did with Kawhi.

    why would they?

    The 2018-2019 Around the NBA thread

    If I was running the Pelicans I would not trade Davis to LA. He is under contract for another year and the Lakers HAVE to use their capspace this year. Lebron's window is now, they are on the verge of losing this year they can't conserve their capspace another year. Keep him and lets see if he...

    The 2018-2019 Around the NBA thread

    ah yes you are half-right As long as a player is still on his rookie deal he remains eligible for the super max. If the Suns traded Booker before the deadline he would be eligible to sign the super max with his new team if he ever qualifies. See James Harden with Houston. With bird rights...

    2019 Draft Prospects...

    Gafford is not a viable top 7 pick which we are almost guaranteed to have.

    The 2018-2019 Around the NBA thread

    We could recruit Kyrie, Kemba or Durant with a core of Booker, Ayton and Davis and if Davis leaves he would pass on the super-max which only we could offer.

    The 2018-2019 Around the NBA thread

    Lonzo is always injured, can't shoot and is not a good dribbler, bad in the halfcourt. For all the hype of him as a passer he averaged only 7 assists in 34mpg last year and 5 this year because he is not much of a playmaker in the halfcourt at all. I am not too excited about getting him. Price...

    The 2018-2019 Around the NBA thread

    could we make a reasonable offer without Booker or Ayton? 2019 pick unprotected 2021 pick top 3 protected 2020 top 7 protected Bucks pick Josh Jackson Elie Okobo Tj Warren Ryan Anderson for Anthony Davis and salary filler that is not going to be on the cap (Mirotic or Randle) We would have...

    Will Suns make a move before the trade deadline?

    Ditching Anderson for an expiring is something the Suns need to do if they are serious about free agency

    If The Suns Have the 3rd or 4th Pick In The Draft Would You Trade For .....

    Lonzo Ball is not worth a lottery pick. He is ALWAYS injured and shoots 40% from the freethrow line

    Mike Conley? Why Not

    More like basic math which you probably failed even in first grade.

    Mike Conley? Why Not

    Ryan Andersons cap hit is not reduced by him agreeing to reduce the guaranteed amount left in his final year. That only reduces what the Suns have to pay him. Anderson and Warren combined make a few million more than Conley so the Subs would gain capspace.

    after!?!??!?!?!?

    Mike Conley? Why Not

    If the Suns move Ryan Anderson and TJ Warren they gain capspace, not lose capspace. Our capspace is a mirage anyway unless we let Kelly Oubre walk and stretch Ryan Anderson we have very little capspace.

    Timberwolves @ Suns 1-22-19

    all you need to know is that Bender wanted to be the next Kukoc. a lot of experts and scouts thought he was in the mold of Jan Vesely.

    they need to stop the bleeding, they are worse than last year the roster is a mess without a starting PG or PF.
