Gambo sounded very worried when he discussed this. Said that the Suns' "plan" hinges entirely on Oubre bring the third piece with Booker and Ayton, and that the Suns have no viable back-up plan if Oubre doesn't re-sign here.

If that is true - it really is not that hard - match at any price.

Offensively, yes. Defense and especially rebounding, absolutely not.
We are definetly going for shooters with the exception of Rubio. I expect our team average in points going up this season! I also think Rubio's assists going up. He gets 3-4 from Booker alone EVERY night. 1-2 (probably more) from Ayton each night for sure.

Yesterday's seemed good, even though I read it as he was gone. I don't know. I guess I don't know how to read his tweets. English man. English!

Holy f! Gambo said they were actually considering bringing Bender back. Now Kaminsky signing the end of the Bender era!

The money we needed to make Rubio's deal work as well as adding Kaminsky is equal to Josh Jackson's salary. Expect a salary dump trade anytime. We might even sign and trade him to Charlotte, I believe they have the space and we're getting Frank from them, so it should be squared.

Kaminsky is being added with the Room Exception. No cap implications.

One hundred percent guarantee that we are holding onto Jackson pending whatever happens with Oubre. That way, if Oubre does walk, the Suns can say we still have hopes for JJ to turn into something equal to or better than Oubre... not that that is likely to happen.

That's either insane or downright dishonest. If there is hope for JJ, you keep him whether or not you re-sign Oubre. If there isn't, this is just a steaming pile of BS...

My guess - the clippers are ready to make him a huge offer, because they want to use up their cap space if they don't get Kawai, which is driving his salary up.

They used the Room Exception on Frank, so I don't think it matters--although IF we do trade Josh, then they COULD fit Frank into normal salary cap and still use the Room Exception on someone else.

Who is this guy talking about Oubre? Reliable? Don’t toy with my emotions.
