2014 Official FA Thread 2

A source told the Sun-Times Tuesday morning that Gibson would be front-and-center in the talks with Anthony, with the team trying to get the Knicks free agent to understand that Gibson gives them a chance to have a “Big Four’’ in the Eastern Conference. Not a big surprise, especially since when Noah started recruiting Anthony at the All-Star Break, his sales pitch also included Gibson as part of the package to play alongside Anthony. Chicago Sun-Times

Lol, Exactly who makes up the big four? Taj freaking Gibson...barharrharrr

That team is going to beast. It would be nice if Len could at least get some minutes in the summer league. Lol... our #5 pick is a backup in the summer league.

Who's Brown?

Our 2nd rounder, Alec Brown.

Yes, I do not like Plumlee in the Summer League. We need to see a ton of minutes of Len, and Oriahki and Alec Brown can play center too.

(Assuming Lebron is not an option)

PG: Bledsoe 32 min / Ennis 10 min / Goodwin 6 min
SG: Dragic 32 min / Green 10 min / Goodwin 6 min
SF: Hayward or Deng (last resort) 32 min / Green 10 min / Warren 6 min
PF: Markieff Morris 30 min / Marcus Morris 12 min / Gasol (last resort) 6 min
C: Gasol 24 min / Plumlee 16 min / Len 8 min

As you can see... suns still too many players and not enough minutes.

Ideally second year rookies should be on 10-12 minutes, 1st year rookies on 6-8 minutes and starters and sixth man all above 28-30 minutes.

Suns still need to probably cut a couple of front court players assuming they are signing Gasol.
They also need to figure our Green's minutes if they are targeting a SF....

You're being very premature. The Suns have not completed the roster and you're doling out minutes. BTW, unless lightning strikes in a very fortuitous manner, neither Ennis nor Warren are likely to have consistent rotation minutes and the Suns would be very disappointed if Len only earns 8mpg.

Kinda happy christmas is still sticking around he was a great hype man on the bench

Talk about lack of excitement in what's suppose to be the most exciting part of free agency. Were talking about the summer league team. That's harsh. The best piece of info coro can come up with is the summer league roster. Really?!

The Morris' went on their 3rd offseason too. This will probably be Plumlee's last one too.

Yeah obviously I'm speculating... That's a big chunk of what people do on realGM....

But the point is ... There's a real chance that what the suns will run with.

A guy I work became friends with Del Curry through a church many years ago. So he got to see Steph and Seth grow up. He said Seth is a really good kid. He needs more time to grow and might be better suited for Europe to improve.

Do you know how many teams are after Pau, Deng and Hayward? A lot. And Utah likely to match.

Still haven't seen anything on LeBron except here, and one report (Woj) saying they have the "framework" of a contract for LeBron.

I take it the meeting with the agent didn't go well and Ray Ray knows this? Or was he still trying to confirm?

Ennis won't get too many minutes. A big reason why Ish got minutes last year was because Bledsoe was out for half a season and Archie wasn't ready for consistent minutes yet. Those Ish minutes which will be going to Ennis, will probably dwindle down to 5mpg.
