Well, he will not play at all IF everyone is healthy.

I don't think it's that easy to find a backup PG who's willing to take a vet min for 1 year and who will cheer for their teammates knowing that he has no chance to get any meaningful playing time.

Price won't be a headache with playing 10 mins. Just a filler addition, won't effect anything.

Yes, that is true. Probably he is the only one accepting that role on our team.

Yes, I'm just as surprised that this exists as the rest of you are.

I'm not against the Weems signing, but he's basically Gerald Green 2.0, a mediocre 3 point shooter who can create a spark 1 out of 10 games, but he can absolutely jump out of the gym.

Who can say no for smarter Green? Also better ball-handling.

From LaMarcus Aldridge to Weems and Price. Ugh. That is a big letdown.

I think you all may enjoy this. Sonny Weems game winning dunk.

Something's coming. This can't be it... Can it? Cmon McD. Time to knock this offseason out of the park.

Really. No one even though we would be in the conversation for Alderidge. And there is that guy named Chandler too.

Maybe they're higher on Leuer than anyone realized.

I am not blaming anyone. I am just saying to lose out on Aldridge and then have the two signings since be two players that are backups who are barely in the league is tough. Suns were so close to a game changing player and now they are signing role players who are basically nobodies. Show me all the highlights of this Weems guy you want. I am not saying he is not talented. Fact remains he has been out of the NBA for years. Okay he was good in Europe. I get it. I just really want a star on this team.

I told you, Leuer will be a good addition. I know it is not good-looking PF rotation but if we don't trade Markieff then i don't expect any move for PF rotation. Maybe a filler.

We would still add these two if LMA signed here. So there is no connection between LMA signing and these additions.

Gambo just tweeted that the Suns are unlikely to look at Amare.
