With Zion going to New Orleans, Jrue is staying there.

My biggest fear is Jackson,#6, Suns #1 next year and Okobo or Melton to move up to #2 to take Ja.

I don't see any reason why Memphis would trade out of the second pick. And certainly not for any thing the Suns would have to offer.

I don’t even think #6, Jackson, 2020 #1, MIL pick and Melton/Okobo would be enough for #2 but I’d do it without a second thought.

Trades need to hurt to get a team to deal (unless you’re the Lakers). We need a distributor in the worst way and Ja is exactly the type of player that will get the most out of Ayton, free up Booker, keep defenses honest and play D on the other end. Is there anything outside of Ayton or Booker that we could offer that Memphis would go for?

No, and it's ridiculous to even speculate about it. The only other assets the Suns have that is worth anything in a trade is their own unprotected picks in the next draft or two. And with the new lotto system, those may not have so much value as they formerly did.

I would do that. Don’t think Memphis would.

I think Memphis takes Barrett

Nobody is trading for Conley unless it is dirt cheap

Really, you don’t think the suns would trade warren and Johnson for him? Cause I think they would, even though I don’t want them too.

Trading away two significant pieces just to move to to take a prospect who isn't all that much better than White or Garland?
One possible significant piece, Josh has sadly been a bust so far, the 1 st as we just saw could be completely useless even with the best odds ,and for the sake of the other pieces in the trade okobo shouldn't even be allowed on a court

Dragan Bender, Marquiss Chriss, and Kendall Marshall all say, “Hold my beer.”

Don't forget Earl Clark, Markeiff Morris (over Kawhi Leonard), and Tyler Ennis (over Gary Harris, Rodney Hood and Clint Capela), just to name a few more.

Garry Harris, Rodney Hood and Clint Capela are role players at best. Come on now.
