Suns Get The 6th Pick

[1Sun]

I am real scared lakers may take him at 4 and ditch Lonzo. He may also be a trade we would make.

Actually, with the Rich Paul connection, I think this is highly likely.

Not rigged. NBA doesn’t want Memphis and New Orleans with the two best players when the Knicks and lakers were right there.

That said, this freaking sucks ass. At least lakers got 4 and Zion not going to NYC.

The new system’s results should be a big dissuader for future tanking. Be so bad all season to get the fifth or sixth picks? No thank you.

As I said at the beginning of last season, it should have been a dissuader for tanking LAST season...

It’s already a done deal that Kyrie is going to the knicks with KD. I don’t see the lakers making that trade and I don’t even know how that would work cap wise.

A done deal you say? Remember, you are speaking about 2 of the most emotional people who have ever played the game. If LeBron wants to get traded you don't think it'll happen? You don't think teaming up with AD would entice LeBron? Going back to a stable organization with someone whom he has worked with and trusts at the helm? After all the Lakers disfunction this year, and the BS going on right now? You would need a third team of course but it could get done.

And for the Lakers. It's a chance to start over, after starting over. They'll have a young team, and will probably lose a lot, but Zion will bring people out. They could learn a lot under Kidd. Imagine lobs from lonzo to Zion, Zion fits in with these Lakers more than LeBron does....in reality, LeBron is the odd man out on the Lakers.

So its White, Garland or a trafe for a gut like Ball etc. Now we know what to argue about



Time to get 2K season started and start next year

Actually, I really want Hunter at 6 and a veteran point guard in a trade...or sign Teague or Collison and trade for a veteran power forward.

 

[Yuma]

I like White. I saw a report we may be ready to trade for Love.

Well living in the Boston area Kyrie has been one of the main talking points and everyone is aware of his intentions. Lebron may want to be traded but after this off season if the lakers trade lebron they would turn into a laughingstock even if it was for Zion. They can’t afford anymore bad press.

After watching this season I’m not convinced the suns were not actually that pathetic. Maybe a few games booker rested at the end of the season?

If they pick might as well take a huge risk, as the value is tiny

Trade what, exactly?

 

[Cheesebeef]

I think White shoots just as good and can get guys involved more. Plus he is 6'5" and strong to boot.

that push shot jumper from White makes me nervous about his shooting at the next level.

 

[slinslin]

Ruled out - Hayes, Doumbouya, Bol Bol
Very unlikely - Culver, Reddish, Hunter, Langford



I think Garland, White or a reach for Clarke are the only options

I think I am reaching for Clarke... yuck

Garland
- frail
- rich paul client
- injury
- in the few games more turnovers than assists

 

[Cheesebeef]

Anyone think Garland being a Rich Paul client is a negative?

not if they like him enough.

oh my god... I will VOMIT if that's what we do that pick. I mean, that would be BEYOND INFURIATING.

Why is Hunter very unlikely? He is a prototypical stretch 4 in today's NBA.

It would render us historically bad defensively and wouldn't be all that far off from trading for Ryan Andersen last year...

I'm NYker, live in NYC, oh believe you me I hear the noise. And the Lakers are already a laughing stock. Not to mention that if they trade LeBron it may open the door for some other FA. I know there's a lot of moving parts, but it makes so much sense to me (not saying it'll happen, but it could).

 

[Cheesebeef]

I'm guessing #6 pick and Johnson's contract.

 

[Proximo]

Yes. Crap that makes it even more likely he is going to the lakers.

agreed.

is Hunter the kid from UVA?

 

[Chris_Sanders]

SMDH

If it was RIGGED, the Lakers and Knicks would have gotten 1/2, not the worst NBA cities in the league.

Was it rigged last year when the PHOENIX Suns got the 1 pick from ARIZONA?

I posted that when they ended up in the top 4

 

[1Sun]

agreed.

is Hunter the kid from UVA?

Yes.

 

[mojorizen7]

Give the pick back to the NBA and say your system sucks

 

[BC867]

The new system’s results should be a big dissuader for future tanking. Be so bad all season to get the fifth or sixth picks? No thank you.

I hope Jones realizes that so we don't have still another embarrassing season.

 

[slinslin]

No he is not

Terrible rebounder, gets no steals or blocks

That is a gigantic red flag

Who the hell would want to go to LA this year if they trade Bron. Aren’t like 75% of the league either RFA or UFA this year? You would think this would be the year you load up.

I think using the pick to clear salary could happen

Lets not forget the pick takes away from our capspace..

If someone can take #6. and contracts such as Johnson, Jackson and Warren in a trade that opens up more capspace for us..
