Rudy for the MLE would be perfect. The guy is long, athletic and runs the floor like a freakin' gazelle.

I'd be more than happy to lock him into a 4 year, MLE type deal with a team option on the final year.

Turn Richardson's expiring into something SF and down and you're golden. I'd even start Rudy if he earned it.... and that guy is full of energy, I think he'd kill himself before he didn't earn a starting gig. He's behind Roy right now... that's tough.

Here he'd be behind Barbosa (after trading Richardson) and frankly I think he'd slide into the starting position at some point. Also, a Nash/Barbosa starting combo would be too small.

*edit:

If Portland was open to it, Maybe you could pull an offseason trade of Richardson + Clark for Webster + Pryzbilla + an extended Rudy. Give them some relief from Webster's contract and some young talent in return.

I think the Suns will eventually get Andre Iguadala next season for Jason Richardson. So Dally and Richardson can expire and the Sixers can start their rebuilding process. Then the Suns will have a dynasty built around Dragic, Iggy, Clark, Amare, Lopez, and Amundson, Dudley, Barbosa off the bench.

I definitely see that as a possibility.

I dont have much respect for guys that cry like little babies about playing time and talk about going back to spain. Its like, "mommy, they are too big and are better than me, I want to come home and play in the lower league".

And once again, we only took him because that is who Portland wanted.

Not exactly, the suns scouts liked him a lot, but kerr wanted tucker because he played D in college. Bad decision of course. I would not mind him here. He is a nice player, kind of like barbosa. gets on the court and chucks shots and gets abbused by bigger and stronger guards. I dont think he is the answer to the future, and I dread the thought of a backcourt of Dragic and Rudy. Top 5 lottery, here we come.

I am always amazed what kind of bull people try to sell to others on these forums.

Tucker was a Mike D'Antoni pick.

I'd love to see Rudy in a Suns uni, I hope this happens. Possibly he should interest in Phoenix aswell
