Let u know after the selection is made.

It's like let's make a deal. Take the money or the box with something unknown. It could be a new car or an empty box. You just don't know. Hard decision. Your choose.

Archie Goodwin is waaaaay overvalued on this site.

I tend to agree. I think he came out of college way too early. I think if the suns keep him, it won't be till the final year of his contract that anyone starts to see him living up to his potential. That's four years away.

He needs to get time but its understandable why he isn't getting time right now...we have a strong group of guards on this team.

No way I give up a guy who's in the NBA Development League for Kevin Love either, lol.

Take a look at some of the players that have played in D-league. http://www.nba.com/dleague/tracker/

Six of the players on the current Suns team have played in the D-league at some point, and they are now major contributors on the team. Eric Bledsoe, Gerald Green, Marcus Morris, P.J. Tucker, Miles Plumlee, and Ish Smith. Four of those guys are starters on the team and Bledsoe is a bonafide all star level talent. So just because Goodwin has played in the D-league does not take away from him at all. In fact, he has totally dominated in his two stints there which bodes very well for him.

He really needs to improve his shooting. His ability to get the basket is great but that shooting touch needs to come around. It took the morrii three years and their still not quite there yet.

The work ethic that Archie displays shows me that he wants to be the good player he was projected to be, I think he has to much heart to be a bust and McDonough sees that

And nobody in this post is anywhere near as good as Kevin Love is.

My hope for Archie is that he can eventually backup both guard spots like LB earlier in his career. I think once he works thru the growing pains he can really provide that spark for our bench but would I include him in a trade for a star right now? **** yeah I would.

If he does come, I just hope it doesn't turn out to be another tom gugliota (spelling) situation. Googs was awesome before he got to the suns and went down hill after we got him. Obviously there was some health stuff involved.

[BurningHeart]

Yeah that would be awful but it's a chance I'm willing to take.

Me too. Btw, I really liked Googs. I remember being really excited about getting him. Ironically I think he came from the wolves.
