Wow. Okay. We got a PG
SHAZAM!

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

I’ll take back every negative thing I said about Beal if he’s the 6th man. Or even better waives his no trade clause. Win win for the team.

They both should come off the bench.

Tyus
Booker
Dunn
KD
Nurk

Glue guys on offense and defense. Booker and KD score the points. Nurk does Nurk things.

PS: Dunn will be our starter by the ASB. If not sooner. He's too good on defense and we're too bad at it.

Can't see Dunn starting early, that'll probably be Royce initially

Tyus-Book-O'Neal-KD-Nurkic
Bench might look like Monte Morris-Grayson-Beal-Bol Bol-Plumlee

Would be nice to see Dunn play his way in as the season progresses

It’s time for LeGM to work his magic and get us out of that contract.

Still young too. So if this works out, Ish can resign him to be our permanent PG to be with Booker for the awhile.

No. Not yet. I think by Xmas, he'll work his way in. He's a hard worker, will do the little things and his D is gonna be needed. Just needs to get up to speed some.

His tenacity will not go unnoticed by Bud. He'll be our SF sooner, rather then later I think.

He needs to just start game 1. We need his defense. Now hopefully Oso is starting by ASB.

Grayson becomes a bit more expendable now if we’re trying to upgrade at forward/C. But we have to consider Jones and Morris as one year rentals.

That would also make me excited because it could mean we have a super deep bench if Beal accepts a Ginobli role. With PG leaving the clippers we can probably get away with Allen at the 3 defensively out West now

PG - Tyus / Morris
SG - Book / Beal
SF - Allen / Oneal
PF - KD / Bol
C - Nurk / Plum


I don't think we'd start Tyus. If we did, Allen would come off the bench and Book would start at 3. He's taller and bigger anyway.\ and Allen is really more of a traditional SG and not a SF (Neither is Book but he is closer (same size as Wiggins, Middleton, DeRozan, Bridges (without the wingspan), etc.

So....

PG - Tyus / Morris
SG - Beal / Allen
SF - Book/ Oneal
PF - KD / Bol
C - Nurk / Plum
