The Ayton Plan

[Proximo]

This. Do people have amnesia? Before the injury Frank was playing well. He was a solid contributor. If McGee leaves, Crowder gets traded we are going to need all the help we can get. If Ayton is traded on top of that? I don't want Frank to start but in terms of backup players go? He is solid. I don't get the Frank hate. It was just two years ago that most of this board was hammering Monty to get him off the bench in the playoffs.

I agree. Nobody should be celebrating losing Kaminsky.

He was a damn good min salary Center backup.

I don't know what we are going to have at center now that it sounds like both Mcgee, him, and Ayton are likely gone. But it isn't going to be good.

Actually I find this news particularly alarming, because Frank should know he would have a great opportunity here, so hopefully it means he is going to get a bit paid somewhere else, otherwise it really suggests some bad things are going down in the background to me.

It's hard to get great chemistry players who can actually play.

We need to start a bring back Frank drive.

I'm all for it if they are no longer concerned about his recurring knee problem (stress reaction/fracture?).

Well, at least one person on this board holds a grudge against him because of his college days when his team beat Arizona in March Madness.

 

[Mainstreet]

Those stress fractures and related fractures around the knee are tough to heal.

Maybe if the Suns don't bring Frank back now, they will bring him back later.

But now he is that poster's hero

It's going to be another long day.

Please tell Frank you don't mean it.

I see Frank Kaminsky gets a lot of love. Suppose to be a great lockroom present and is well liked by the players and I'm sure he be back for another stint with the Suns.

It's going to be exciting though unless things go South. Time for James Jones to pull a few rabbits out of his hat.

Sadly I'm resigned the Suns will lose Ayton.

I told Frank to call you. I'm glad you guys got things worked out.

I agree. I would rather move on from Mediocre Monty any day of the week than dump even an underachieving Ayton for a bag of peanuts just because Monty doesn't see him as son-in-law material.

Mediocre Monty is what Monty has been in the playoffs. I like to see Monty and CP3 gone. The Suns can recover & stay in contention.

No idea who this guy is but he is Twitter verified.

Collins and what else? Atlanta doesn’t have any picks.

At least Atlanta has some nice pieces. I want John Collins and Onyeka Okongwu.

Heurter most likely.

I had a bad feeling this might be the deal.

Gotta say if Atlanta pulls this off, they are now officially my team to beat in the East.

 

[Mainstreet]

Hawks also have Kevin Huerter and Bogdan Bogdanovic but I'm playing hardball. I want Okongwu and Collins.

Unfortunately, I’m not sure if Jones is playing hardball. I’d much rather keep Ayton than trade him for Collins and fillers.

The same here but I've come to accept the Suns are trading Ayton.

 

[Dr. Jones]

Collins and something else would be pretty darn good IMO. I think JC is a bit underrated personally.

And Ayton may not be fond of the offense they run in the ATL. That could be fun to watch over the next 2 to 3 years.

Ayton will still be #3 on the hawks lol

I don't really think he cares. He just wants to be paid.

 

[Mainstreet]

I don't really think he cares. He just wants to be paid.

It's beginning to feel that way although Murray and Young will find Ayton and he should be wide open with them on the court.

 

[Finito]

Very short sighted.

But I’m over it

 

[Chaplin]

Atlanta is intriguing if we can somehow net Collins and Capela.
