Suns Moving Up in Draft?

[DRK]

I've been absent a long time but can't help weighing in - I'd love to see the Suns get WCS. I think Bledsoe is too expensive and too prone to injury to pin hopes on. Would have been much better to trade him and keep the Dragon ....

Shot blocker, defender, decent rebounder, good finisher around the rim and has an improving short jumper, hook. Offensive rebounding skill -

I can see him blocking a shot and starting the break. How i like to see the Suns play, but with some stopping power in the middle

We dont allow Laker fans around here.

Just kidding man. Welcome back! Hope you stick around!

Knicks would never do any deal unless Calderon was also involved.

Yeah, no thanks. Good luck with the euros.

Knicks dont have to trade.
One of Okafor, Russel, Porzingis or Mudiay will be available at #4.

Without Calderon in any deal, I highly doubt Phil accepts any trade. No point.

It makes no sense for us either. Not really sure how this rumor started.

All that matters is how good player can we get with 4th pick. If you see someone with a star potential then you trade for him and don't give a #### if you have to take Calderon contract or give 13th pick.

So who's the star at 4?

[Damkac]

I'm not a scout so I don't know. But I belive McD knows. I like his draft choices so far.
Of course mayby this is a weak draft and there is nobody worth interest at 4. But if there is a player who has realistic chance to be multiple allstar would you hesitate to give a late lottery pick or take a bad contract to get him?

Good luck with the euros.

That's what all the GMs that passed on Gobert and Giannis thought.

Same with Nurkic, Vucevic, Mozgov, and Gortat.

[Damkac]

Yeah thats what I don't understand: every european prospect is compared to other white european players that was busts but never to european players that turned out good

[JTrain]

Let's trade up. I want to feel excited again. I want something resembling a likable team again.

[lilfishi22]

Kidding me?

I've seen Dirk's name thrown around these forums a lot more than I've seen Vesley's.

[Damkac]

Sorry I meant some people think that every european player will be bust because there was some european players that was busts and they ignore other european players that was successful.
Calling every tall white european who can shoot "next Dirk" is also stupid. Porzingis isn's as skilled as Dirk but is more athletic. They are two different players.

Adding up: saying Porzingis will suck because Bargniani sucks is as wrong as is saying that Porzingis will be HOF-er because Dirk is great

That's my point.

Welcome back JohnVancouver

Now that Nash has retired, any chance you'll come back to the Suns board full time?

I always have a place in my heart for PHX - I was pulling for Cavs just so Trix would get a ring, then remembered he got one in Dallas. (My man crush on Delly started in the NC2A's a few years back, withthat St. Mary's backcourt of Delly and Mickey McConnell, like having two Mike Riordan's.)

I probably won't be back anywhere full-time but I hope it's okay to drop by whenever. Miss you guys - good folks here

Would you guys take the Morris twins for Calderon?

You have to be joking, right? Why are you under the impression that the Morris twins are contracts that have to be moved, and why do you think we'd want to move them for contracts that are worse and attached to older players?

The only people throwing Dirks name around are the ones saying that Dirk is such an exception and you are out of your mind to compare any present Euro-big to him.

Honestly. This whole, Euro-bigs don't ever turn out is just false. There are so many good ones in the league.
