Keep in mind, I think Amares family lives here and still owns a home here. Amare loves the Suns staff. Makes sense.

If the Suns pick up Amare, Zoran Dragic is the player that makes the most sense to get rid of. A completely pointless signing in the first place. Obviously done to appease Goran.

I think Zoran's done a better job for us this year than Gerald....

Would love some Amare back. We need a finisher on the pick and roll. Unless he starts to catch the team vibe and starts pulling jumpers instead.

Look, ive been totally against all these ideas people have posted about trading for Amare, but to snag him for dirt cheap temporary has my interest peaked just a bit.

This is totally different than trying to trade for his massive contract that others had postulated. I'd grab him if he got bought out.
SHAZAM!

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

This comment will undoubtedly be sigged when Cousins gets traded to a team that becomes elite and I will be known as the guy who didn't want to trade Cousins for Len. :-?


Len could be one of those big men who's on/off the injured list his entire career. If Bledsoe/Len is the deal we not only get better but save money too making it easier to sign Dragic. How many times has McD brought up acquiring the disgruntled star?

Well yes, as far as players go, but I doubt that happens for obvious reasons unless they are trading Dragic.

I agree. I love what I'm seeing from Len but Cousins is an elite big man at only 24.

From the Kings perspective, especially if they are happy at all with Collison, that would seem like a MAJOR downgrade at center though. It would still probably take more...picks or Warren or something. I know some here probably think that seems like a ton, and I love Len, but if I was a Kings fan, it wouldn't seem like enough.

I can't stand the idea of cheering for him and there are days when I'd want nothing to do with him but realistically, if there was even a tiny chance it could happen we'd be foolish to not pursue it. I'd offer Goran, Zoran, IT, Tucker, Plumlee, Len and the Lakers pick. Obviously, that would require multiple teams and maybe even multiple deals to move some of our guys for the picks they'd probably want. I think we have a better of going making the conference finals this season but you never know till you try.

Amare at center with Markieff and the 3pg lineup would be killer for short stretches.

If I can stand Kieff with his attitude and his 15/6, I would have no problems cheering for Cousins with his attitude and 24/12.5

The package would need to include Len, Bledsoe, Warren and picks at the minimum.
