Why didn't the Spurs take the trade? I'm sure they want to accommodate LMA and Chandler would help. Maybe they work a deal where we get LMA now and they can take on Knight/Jones JR. :D

8 out of 10 players in our rotation have 3 years or less experience.

And Chandler and Bledsoe are being rumoured in trades every week.

Such youth, much timeline.

I think they want to keep two of the three centers, Len, Chandler, Williams. If they can move Chandler, they will keep Len. If they cannot move Chandler, they will try to sign and trade Len for something.

I want to keep Tyson. We need his leadership.

Too much youth if we trade him.

Hey guys, good news! We're not the Knicks!

LOL! This Carmelo situation is beyond ridiculous.

I wouldn't be surprised if Melo to Clev talks resurface.... and us in there with Bledsoe. McDo would be somewhat redeemed by getting Love, may be his biggest name/once an Allstar player. I'd have no problem giving up Bledsoe and handing the PG duties over to Ulis and Booker and I guess James... unless we can find a pass first kid somewhere. Shoot... Rondo might be around. Theres also Lawson and Sessions looking for work. Im not sold on James. But I wouldn't think twice about starting Ulis.

Now remind me of all the Love Hate... I just think he'd be a good fit. Great outlet passer BTW.

Not sure Orlando's offense will help his shooting.

Happy the Spurs take a step back, no matter how minor it may be :)

I'm not sure replacing him with Rudy Gay is a step back. But achilles injuries are no joke.

Let me stop you right there. We are in no position to trade TJ Warren. He was our second best player last season to Bled. He can be a 20+ PPG, 6 RPG, 1.5 STL player. In a very good offense, I think he could get his FG% to around 52%. Especially given our legitimate concerns about Chriss, we can't afford to lose that kind of young talent. We just added two great passers; Warren's a great finisher. It makes sense to keep and build with TJ. What we can't do is perpetually delay the ascension of this squad by trading draft picks that pan out for more draft picks.


This is such a good post. We really underate tj. Myself included

No chance we move Warren. Bledsoe/Chandler/Knight will get traded before we even think about Warren. Additionally Bender/Chriss are near untouchable.

Read that article.
They consider Booker a pillar, Chriss and Bender as a pillar together and Jackson as the third pillar.

Warren not mentioned.


Suns potentially could get another major pillar of they draft a big man. I am hopeful it's Ayton. He really does remind me of David Robinson. And David Robinson would dominate today in both ends. Imagine a bigger, faster more athletic Anthony Davis.

Yes.... I noticed the complete non acknowledgment of Warren as well.... WTF ? Pretty syrupy article anyway. Yadda yadda yadda bookers a future all-star....yadda yadda yadda ... McDo and watson are impressed with Chris and Bender, and Jackson is the missing link.
Also... the 'didn't try' to get stars in Free Agency ???? I guess they were the ones just kidding when they set up a Blake Griffin meeting. Fooled him! Milsap interest was false ?

Really, I dont know why I read any interview of McDo... he spreads the butter as if everything is just how he wants.

Dude, don't get too carried away with Ayton. He's a good young big man, who should be proficient offensively and defensively, but let him play in Tucson first before throwing out David Robinson and "bigger, faster more athletic Anthony Davis" around.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Honestly, I like the idea of Ayton more than what I've seen from him. I don't think he's close to young David Robinson athletically. I do think that ayton is our best fit based on what he could/should be. Unless Bagley reclassifies.

Well regarding Ayton. He just has the Admiral's body profile I think. And he is jumpy and mobile.

Admiral is my all time favorite next to Barkley so I am excited to see someone that resembled him a bit.

But for what the Suns need... A mobile two way big ... Ayton is top of the board for me.
