Suns Off-season Thread

[Covert Rain]

Lol. Rondo and Paul on same team.

Oh I forgot. There is a beef there between them.

 

[SunsTzu]

Gorgui Dieng, Greg Monroe, Robin Lopz Whiteside... Not great options. Of course Dwight Howard and Cousins but I don't want either of them.

Montrez Harrell is available, albeit undersized.

Lopez already has a deal in place with the Cavs, Dieng is the only guy on that list I'd give any consideration to.

I've always felt if the Suns let DA walk the ideal targets would be JV, Turner or Okongwu. Obviously to get any of them would require some expanded trade.

 

[Hoop Head]

At PG we could make a play for DJ Augustine, Tomas Satoransky, or Bryn Forbes. ESPN lists DJ and Tomas at potential vet minimum signings and Bryn Forbes between $4-6 million.

Forbes signed with the T-Wolves. I have always liked Satoransky.

ESPN Insider has a good free agent breakdown where they list who is left an approximately what salary they'll command. That's where I saw Trez was available. It's slim pickings at Center after Ayton. Here it is, for those interested. Other positions available at the link below.

Bryant/Ibaka would be my choice in that list, but yeah… pretty underwhelming.

 

[Mainstreet]

D Augustine is a solid player. There is Louis Williams as well.

Let's hope Iffe can show something in summer league.

I like

Harrell
Bryant
Ibaka
Whiteside

If you can land two of them with biyombo I think it’s enough depth to survive.

Didn't he recently get caught with several pounds of marijuana? I would think that would have to play out before someone like the Suns took a chance on him.

I don't know how that flew under the radar. I can't remember seeing anything about that, here or elsewhere.

I think many of us were still in shock from our early playoff exit and avoiding sports news probably helped us cope.

 

[Folster]

More center depth. Time to check his YouTube highlights.

Moves and plays like Jonas Valanciunas, a poor man's version to be sure. He's 26 so I assume he has a bit of international experience.

 

[Folster]

No word on what we gave up. Hopefully just cash or a heavily protected, no chance of conveying 2nd.

Never heard of this guy, but he looks like he can roll pretty well.

Little bit below avg defender, slightly above avg offensively.

All in all, he looks pretty good for a minimum salary player.

Moves and plays like Jonas Valanciunas, a poor man's version to be sure. He's 26 so I assume he has a bit of international experience.

He played 4 years for St Marys. He played Internationally between college and his rookie season. He's accustomed to the US style though having played 4 years in the NCAA and last year with the Spurs, which is good.

He averaged 21 and 10 in his senior year, which is solid. College stats are towards the bottom here...

I'm having to look up some of these players. Something is brewing.

I agree.

Okogie is long and athletic, no handles and can't shoot... at all. Still young, worth a flier, but he is a bust so far in his career.

We are not alone.

I'm more excited about Landale than the other two newcomers.

He gives off "Rich Man's Jake Voskuhl" vibes. Seems pretty decent for a minimum player.

Also, big, white, center... from Australia... virtual guarantee to be a crowd favorite.

Showed promise early but definitely hit a wall. Good defender. Type of guy you put on the floor with two players that you know are going to take the majority of the shots

I don't get this signing. His stats look pretty bad.

Looks like best thing he has going for him is defense.
