Hey, if we can get Nash without moving Nelson I'd be ecstatic.

Even if that means moving Anderson?
I'd rather move Nelson than Ryan .. Ryan should be untouchable if the player coming to Orlando isn't named Monta Ellis or Deron Williams

Re: Official Speculation Thread (Pt XII: Trade Deadline Edit
I was told "if" the Suns traded him, it would be to rid themselves of bad contracts... so who wants Josh Childress and Hakim Warrick.

Kyler must have 15 Nash tweets in the last 30 minutes. He's getting flooded. More than anything, I don't think anyone gives Suns players that will fill the seats, so it comes down to taking a bad contract back from the Suns.

If we didn't had Glen, I wouldn't mind Warrick. Childress' contract looks really toxic, I don't think I could stomach that one even if it meant getting Nash.

J-Rich needs to kick rocks.....Too inconsistent and virtually brings nothing to the table that Redick can't emulate

We gotta have someone to hate on the team.

Re: Official Speculation Thread (Pt XII: Trade Deadline Edit
I've always considered Warrick/Childress as solid role-players .. Wouldn't mind bringing in one of them
Would prefer Childress. Always considered him a little underrated

you should always mind hakim regardless of what we have and Childress did not fit to what gentry had in mind. Josh can play 2-4.

"O'Quinn will have a longer and more successful NBA career than Nicholson." Predicted Jun 2012. Verified on Dec 2014.

I know, that's why I used the word untouchable

But of course, we all know Otis & he'll probably give in to trading Anderson cause he's gonna be so desperate to trade for Nash

Re: Official Speculation Thread (Pt XII: Trade Deadline Edit
If we take those long term contracts they have to take hedo or Duhon/QRich back... We'll lose Dwight next year anyways if we're stuck with a bunch of 4 and 5 year deals (being unable to go after Ellis in 2013).

Does Nash give us a legitimate chance at a ring this year? If so, is it worth that chance for those contracts?

What's the deal with Childress and why is he barely getting PT? Is he that bad?

that's a dream deal for us. nash/jrich/Q/anderson/dwight. hedo helps ease our loss of jj off the bench.
taking back more bad contracts is a bad idea IMO but we can afford to send out our 1st rounder in a deal for nash
this is one of those rare trades that make sense for all teams. minny would love to get jj while draft picks+ beasley is a good return for phx. if dwight and nash both walk at the end of their year then getting a ton of capspace would help some.
