I wanna give credit to Gambo, he's been on point with his stuff, not just the Suns stuff but stuff about other players like Millsap and LMA.

He's reported it first before any national high profile NBA insider did.

I think McD's letting him have more information now with it being McD's last year of his contract and likely wanting all the support from the local media that he can get.

Gambo is literally scooping the national media by 2 days

This is where dropping two spots in the lottery is going to hurt. Damnit Ainge.

My tanking ass has not been a good boy this year...

:(

You have the draft and trades to redeem yourself. :)

My coal is coming by the truckload. Messed up the lottery big time.

I've been thinking about Millsap. It makes sense if the Suns are trading Knight to the Hawks. Millsap is an expiring contract.

Perhaps the Hawks can reboot Knight.

Sounds like the possibility of the Knicks moving Kristaps is gaining steam. Funny that it happened right after Broussard "reported" the Knicks weren't seriously shopping him.

I think the Suns would have a good chance of landing him. Boston has the assets, but I doubt PJ wants to trade him within the division.

Millsap is a free agent. The Suns would be getting him on a new contract from a sign and trade or signing him outright.

So trading for him would be to give him a 5th year. Please no.

You think PJ really cares about NY? He's phoning that job in like he works at Ramada Inn's Nationwide Call Center.

If we have to give up #4 and Chriss, I make that deal in a heartbeat. Hell, I'd throw everyone else and their mother in as long as we held on to Booker. Those would be two GREAT building blocks to build around.

Suns interested in trading for established star, e.g., George, Butler or Porzingis.





http://basketball.realgm.com/wireta...4-Pick-For-Jimmy-Butler-Paul-George-Porzingis

if it's just the 4th pick, plus Bender (or anyone not named Booker/Chriss/Bledsoe), I'd start leaning okay with Butler, lean against George because he ain't coming back here and definitely on Porzingis. Question is, can McD actually make a GOOD trade? Hasn't done that since Bledsoe (which was a very good start that went downhill from there).

Hopefully he remembers the trade for Knight.

I like Butler and Porzingis... Porzingis the most.

Chriss, #4, and Bender / Warren for Porzingis

I'd do it. I put almost zero stock in Bender.

I actually think if we found a guy to play the 3, and Chandler and Bledsoe were healthy next year, that team could even start to contend for a playoff spot.

He got a 1st rounder for Markieff

The Dragic Trade is theft now.

that's true too on Marqueef.

I fail to see how the Dragic trade was much of anything considering I believe neither of those picks will ever amount to much.
