I have to admit the idea of getting Diop to fill Hunter's role is growing on me. Also wasn't Hunter waived by Cleveland and isn't Diop now a FA from Cleveland? There would definitely be some irony there if the Suns signed him.
However, let me also throw out another name, Melvin Ely. I have no idea how the Suns could get him from the Bobcats other than perhaps a sign and trade including a first round draft pick from the Suns and hopefully Voshkuhl. The Bobcats would do this primarily for the pick but Voshkuhl might be useable for them.
I know from previous discussions in the past many on this Board are not high on Ely, but I think if the Suns lose Hunter, he would be a welcome addition. Also he gives the Suns a little more bulk off the bench. Just a thought.
