    Disgruntled star watch

    Yeah, that's kind of silly. They're not letting their franchise player walk. I'm sure they knew they would have to pay him that money even before they matched Hibbert's max offer sheet last year.

    Scola trade to Pacers Imminent

    I just read the last 3 pages of this thread. You know you're overanalyzing things when you're saying not to try and acquire Kevin Love because he's a bad defender. He may be a bad post defender and man defender, but he's a phenomenal rebounder. He's also a fairly good scorer. It's just silly to...

    Scola trade to Pacers Imminent

    I think Minnesota had a decent off season. I also think short of winning the championship in the next two years KLove is going to bolt for somewhere sunny. Our main rival will be the Lakers in 2015 so we need to position ourselves with a better future by then.

    Scola trade to Pacers Imminent

    Only Utah has more picks than the Suns in the next 2 years if they all convey.

    What to do with Scola?

    Why are we still arguing about this a month later?

    What to do with Scola?

    I'm certain. It's 7.5% of the salary in the 1st year of the extension. Check question #53 and #58 in the cba faq at cbafaq.com Also, the Suns definitely have Gortat's bird rights. They are activated after 3 years with the same team, but they accrue even if traded. Edit: Maybe I'm not being...

    What to do with Scola?

    Gortat was never going to extend because when you sign an extension you're only eligible for a certain % as a raise. I imagine he wants something like $10Mil a year and he wouldn't be able to get that as an extension. I don't think the front office wants to sign him to that amount either. I...

    2013 Summer League

    I think Babb might have a shot at becoming a 3&D type player. I, too, was impressed by Ian Clark. Onoaku might have an outside-outside shot, but he's already in his late 20s.

    2013 Summer League

    I wouldn't care if we did or not. It's just you'd be totally giving up on him and losing the asset for nothing. Well, not nothing, you of course get the cap space. I do get a little bit of a stiffy thinking about going into 2015 with only Dragic, Bledsoe, Len, Goodwin and a stud 2014 draftee on...

    ****ing fantastic. Dude is averaging 8 FTAs a game. Has to be leading the Summer League.

    2013 Summer League

    So you're thinking we decline his 3rd year option this Summer before the season starts? That's when we'd have to do it. Same for the Morris bros. 4th year.

    Kendall Marshall on the trade block

    I'd replace him with Goudelock in 2 shakes of a lamb's tail.

    Archie Goodwin...best pick in the draft?

    What's the other board? It sounds like you're talking about .net but if you are you're taking the opinion of like thre people and applying it to the entire board.

    Kendall Marshall on the trade block

    Great post. I also hate how white players are automatically "unathletic." If they are great players it's always in spite of their limited athleticism.

    2013 Summer League

    It was the Kentucky incoming class that forced his hand apparently. A decision very similar to the one Grant Jerett made.

    2013 Summer League

    Wait. What? When exactly do you think we will be competing again? 4 years from now is exactly when it will do us good.

    BSOTS: Marshall doesn't think he needs to improve

    One thing you should know about Bright Side of the Sun is they are obsessed with their web design and they are CONSTANTLY changing the title of articles after they are published. It's super freakin' annoying. I think they do it so when they move it from the main story frame to one of the smaller...

    Tanking

    Like sitting Dragic last year when he was absolutely on a tear and playing his ass off? (Which btw was absolutely the right move. If Utah would have won another game or two we'd have had a 2nd lottery pick.)

    2013 Summer League

    It's called rebuilding. I've seen a lot of teams send half their actual roster to the Summer League before. It's not a big deal. Also, Coro said that Tucker might only play one or two games. He's there to get a leg up on learning the new system and get familiar with Horny.

    @daldridgetnt: RT @KevinDing: Sweet a guy as he is, @MettaWorldPeace will be waived via amnesty by Lakers to save about $30 million, barring some late change.

    UA & Pac-12 Basketball Thread

    Givony from DX said that Gordon was the MVP of the FIBA U19 Championship. Averaged 12 & 6 in only 18 min a game and shot 61% from the field.

    2013 Summer League

    Like the Developmental League the Summer League can't predict success, but it definitely can predict failure. If you struggle in those leagues you'll struggle in the NBA for sure. Yet another reason why Marshall's stint down there was so depressing.

    Suns Trade for Eric Bledsoe and Caron Butler

    No, his twitter is silent. Not used very often.

    Around the League (Offseason)

    He's a really good follow if you want to know about CBA stuff. Problem is that he works for the Lakers so it's like 50% Lakers talk on his feed, which can get super annoying. ‏@LarryCoon: Sign-and-trade rules in current CBA limit to 4 years and 4.5% raises -- same as if he signs with Hou...

    What is the best strategy moving forward?

    Yeah, you're right it's just Nash and his deal is fully guaranteed. I thought for some reason it was not. I'll be very interested in seeing what they do with all that room. Like you I just can't see James going there. It's either reupping with Miami (most likely) or going back to Cleveland.
