Love this trade for the Suns.

I'll see the salaries to commit, but at first glance I like Royce a lot for them.

Really good for Phx. Interesting if just out of rotation players (expiring) coming back or if it is N. Little

Steal for Phoenix at that price.

Seems like a fair deal to me.

No idea how the Suns pulled this off, but what a great deal. Little and 3 2nds shouldn't get you O'Neale/Roddy.

Oh and another this player will bring us a first not bring a first.

How competent GM's handle business, kudos to PHX

Waiting on the details of the swap. Roddy is likely a 8 year vet in the NBA but is capped out at a 8th man. He will be good playing off Phoenix high usage guys.

Memphis clear more breathing room for the full MLE or a SNT and stay under the 1st apron. This was kind of expected. Now just need either a Rose or Konchar dump too.

So we should be happy about Roddy?

Suns fan here...I have been exceedingly underwhelmed by Roddy. Am I crazy?

If Nets are eating Little's deal and only getting three seconds that puts O'Neal's value at.. about nothing? Generously?

He's a second year fringe rotational role-player, but given Phoenix's cap and asset situation, I think he is definitely worth the pickup (cost-controlled for two more seasons). Brings physical rebounding and a bit of scoring potential.

Most eight/ninth man talents are underwhelming. He was a late 1st and looks like he ends up being a deep rotation guy in the NBA for awhile. He is a jack of all trades type of guy that is not ever really going to flash. Sound fundamentally but likely just a 12-15 minute guy for yall unless he shot starts to fall more.

Roddy was supposedly a wing “light” version of Draymond 2.0. Similar to Tillman, the size limitation defines his ceiling. A tweener-bruiser, should supplement the thin Suns stars with his exceptional physicality.

Maybe it's not little based on Shams' tweet about roster spots?

I guess Im just worried about "for a pick swap" and what that might mean. 8th/9th guys are great, as you say so paying positive value seems sketchy. Depends on the details I guess.
