We could have beaten that deal easily.

I am convinced that Jones and Bower are just not even trying after the Kennard deal (which would have been a step backwards, not forwards) fell through.

If they can't get a James Jones clone, a Bower favorite or a U of A guy, management is satisfied doing nothing and continuing to put a glorified G League team on the court.

Fans need to start boycotting games and merchandise.

If Seattle ever gets an expansion franchise, what are the chances that the Suns get contracted for no longer trying to be competitive?...

I don’t understand the Drummond deal

Drummond was leaving as a free agent.

Detroit was desperate to get anything of value - they got a 2nd I guess.

Washington has traded Jordan McRae to Denver for Shabazz Napier, league source tells ESPN.

11:35 AM - 6 Feb 2020

Makes me wonder if Rose is available too from Detroit.

Their fan base has to be livid

They were definitely hoping for a first, but I think many figured out it wasn't going to happen.

And yet at least they got an asset (albeit a weak one) for their expiring contract. The Suns aren't getting diddly squat for their FOUR expiring contracts.

For what Drummond was dealt for, I wish the Suns tried sending Tyler Johnson off for him. I know he'd be a rental but we could really answer the question as to whether or not Ayton should play PF going forward or not with a look at him playing next to Drummond for 2 months. Then hope to get a 1st or some 2nd's in a sign and trade involving Drummond this summer if it doesn't work.

That would require proactive thinking, something entirely lacking in this front office.

It would have been worth that alone if the Suns don't have any other trades.

Wow another year and another "valuable" expiring contract equals zero for trades...wtf

Yeah but they could have held on for a S&T in the off-season, since not too many teams would be able to sign Drummond outright.

Eventually the board will learn. Expiring contracts aren't nearly so valuable anymore.

Unfreaking real. Just reported on KTAR that the Suns are indeed doing nothing and instead are selling Devin Booker on what they plan on doing over the summer in trades. Do they think Booker is stupid? Just keep kicking the can down the road indefinitely...

 

[WildBB]

Nobody wants what we have outside of Oubre. Straight up for Gordon?? Don't see it making a big enough impact. Maybe more slippage actually. Depends on his expectations in the offense. We do need an inside D presence.

Especially if your us.

They still have SOME value, though. Even Detroit got something for Drummond.

 

[Mainstreet]

The other line is second round picks don't have value.

How many trades today have been made using them?

 

[SirStefan32]

This is just unbelievable. They haven't been able to add a single deep bench player, let alone a rotation contributor.

 

[1Sun]

If anyone believes Jones and Bower don't deserve to be fired at this point, I would like to know your rationale...

They got something for the player - not something for the contract. Which of our "expiring players[contracts]" are other teams hot for? An injured Baynes, perhaps?
