Exactly. Plus a team like Philly could offer Harris and Maxey. Pelicans could offer a lot as well


Kyrie though - thats the one. I want more information on what a trade package would look like. Might have to watch ESPN tonight - if they have the countdown show just for Woj


Honestly CP3 and Crowder makes sense it lets Nets still have a shot to compete this year and they can clear that cap next year. Kyrie is unrestricted so they lose him for nothing if they don't move him and most those other teams packages don't keep that window open. They are going to need to get a pg back.


Well if they get CP3 - how would that team with Durant healthy be in the playoffs. Would Paul want to go play with Durant?

Lakers - do they want Chris Paul and Crowder if the Nets wanted Westbrook? I doubt they would facilitate Irving to the Suns that way

Anyone know why Twitter posts no longer appear on mobile RealGM anymore? They originally didn’t. Then they fixed it. Now it’s just the site ID again. Pretty annoying

Realistically I dont see us getting either, but of the two, Durant would be our goal. And late in the season is not really relevant when you factor in our record, injuries and chemistry issues with Da. A week and a half ago, this board was ready to flush the entire rest of the season. I dont see any of it happening but sure can't see us pivot to Kyrie.

It wouldn't be CP3 that would go to the Nets. It would be Ayton.

I wouldn't do that deal if I were the Suns if it were Ayton for Irving. I think a deal would have to be centered around Crowder and Paul and my guess, Paul would probably be okay with it

That ship has sailed FR and his knee injuries will keep being an issue.

It makes a whole lot more sense - even if we're dealing with the Raptors - for OG to go elsewhere. Three picks is great for a rebuilding team like the Raptors.

I know this is a bit late, But does anyone know or has anyone heard on what "other teams" legitimately asked to speak with Crowder?

I call BS here! With a new billionaire owner incoming who just happens to also be from Detroit AND recently signing a supermax deal. This rumor is highly unlikely!

Gambo has said that he can rule out these players:

OG Anunoby
Josh Richardson
Coby White
Max Strus
Alex Caruso

And he has said that the Bucks aren't the only team that has interviewed Jae Crowder.

Did Gambo rule out Kyrie?

I would obviously like Book to play. But resting, in our current situation, might be better.

I remember Barkley towards the end of his Suns career saying something like "If I can still average 20/10 I can still help a team" He would probably be averaging 30 in todays game.


By the end of his time with us it was nothing but posting up for whole possessions (illegal today) and mid-range jumpers. The most boring basketball I can remember as a Suns fan.

Young Barkley would rock the modern NBA, but old Barkley would get wrecked - switching to the perimeter on D and alternating between mid-range 2's and bricks from 3.


If Barkley would have allowed KJ to run the offense and play within it 100% of the time, no doubt Suns win a championship, especially if KJ never tried to pick up Oliver Miller causing a hernia that went undetected for awhile, causing multiple further injuries.

Return to Phoenix Suns
