yeah I think in a vacuum Len should have more trade value, but Adams fits OKC better right now and that's what's really important to them. I can see tho how a Suns fan feels like he is adding value to OKC with that swap tho. I love Adams game but Len has a higher ceiling imo and could bring higher return in trade.

I'd agree, I just wouldn't for OKC. I don't mean to say Adams is the better player or prospect, just wouldn't make sense for OKC. I mean if PHX wanted to add value in Len that's fine, but Adams going back just kills the value.


See I think this is the case with Ibaka to PHX, same basic idea, where he is certainly a guy who has great value, but I don't think given the current Suns makeup that he would have as much value to PHX as he would to other teams, hence I don't think PHX would necessarily do the OP, but I wouldn't be surprised if other teams would do the OP or more. In my mind, he would do very well next to Len, but not necessarily great next to Chandler, and with $50+ million paid to Chandler PHX is kind of committed. Maybe if there was a deal where Chandler was moved, then we may have something interesting. Maybe Morris+Chandler plus parts on either side in a three-way trade with Ibaka coming back to PHX.

Honestly, the issue isn't that either. Its the premise. If the trade involves...

OKC out: Ibaka

Its a no.
