What confuses me more than the Laker pick, which I get moving seeing as it is a boom or bust asset, but why Ennis? Thomas and Dragic gone, are we really going to trust Goodwin as the bench PG?

Bledsoe and Knight will take all the PG minutes...

Else Knight won't be happy as a full time SG.

As part of deal, New Orleans trades John Salmons to Phoenix, league source tells Yahoo Sports.

LOL! I remember when the Suns wanted Salmons about eight years ago.

Salmons is a SF, and a corpse, and he plays for the Pelicans.

How did the Pelicans get involved in this?

There still has to be other moves. We need to pick up a C or PF. Maybe we will trade Knight still? Guess we will have to wait till all the dust settles.

I am ok with trading IT & Dragic. Picks don't are not worth much unless they are top 3-5. Not sure why the Suns didn't get Giannis or Henson in the deal.

Ryan McDonough and Lon Babby boarded the Suns bus to have a team meeting before it goes to the airport. No press conference today. #buswatch


Shock & Awe damage control!

We were very likely to not get it this year, the Lakers won't stay super-bad forever.

Big risk thought. The Lakers have bad mgmt, few assets, and can't seem to attract free agents.

Still don't understand why we gave up that pick.

Interesting that we now have three (3) Kentucky guys: Bledsoe, Knight & Archie. Wonder if we're trying to entice Cousins to force a trade to us in the off-season.

Knight is the same type of player that IT is. Undersized shooting guard.

No he is not, he is completely different to IT.

Also Brandon Knight is intelligent. Brandon Knight is an all-around guard. He is not a chucker. He can actually shoot, spot up, pass, rebound.. Brandon Knight is a very good player.
