Bulls hoard big men like the Suns do guards.

Knight/Morris/Chandler for Rose/Portis/Noah
They dump Rose and Noah and upgrade their PG and backup C spots. Morris continues to come off the bench behind Gibson/Mirotic.
Interesting idea....but that Rose contract might be the worst in the league.
I feel like I'd rather give up draft picks instead of doing the Rose/Knight swap.

I would too, but i doubt that Chicago would rather have draft picks than dump a $20M contract. Not to mention that Knight would fit in real good next to Butler. Its a big price to pay for Portis.

Re: Potential Trade Thread
Portis was my ideal 2014 Suns pick over Booker.
KG like work ethic and approach.
Can rebound, has mid range... Plays hard.
But I think Hornacek wanted a shooter.
Irony is... Hornacek may not last past this season or sooner... And Suns need a PF who can be a double double guy.

Booker > Portis all day but I would be happy to add the PF.

Still would include Teletovic or Leuer in a package while they have value.

If we could, we definitely should. Kind of redundant to have two similar players on the same team.

Re: Potential Trade Thread
If Suns put Bledsoe on the trade block I think there would be huge interest around the NBA. What do you think he is worth?
From a draft pick perspective I would ask for a high pick, say something like a #8 pick or better.
I am thinking about gauging interest and posting this on the trade board. I think we could get something valuable in the form of a high pick or prospect.

Re: Potential Trade Thread
This might have been posted already, if so I am not trying to steal your thunder.
Suns trade: Bledsoe, Kieff, Tucker
Bulls trade: Rose, Portis, filler
Suns move Bledsoe and get Rose (and albatross contract) back to run the offense. Rose still has something in the tank, he's just not a star anymore. Suns also get Portis as their 4 of the future. Plus we move Kieff.
Chicago turns the page and moves on from Rose. They replace him with a better PG in Bledsoe, and give up Portis who is rotting on the bench.
Who says no?

No. Derrick Rose is not the same player.
Bledsoe is having an incredible season, this value horrible

The Suns say no. And quickly. Bledsoe is the most valuable player in that deal, and we're also taking on the worst contract in that deal. Portis is simply not that valuable.

Bledsoe has tremendous value, he is highly valued in the league.

I wonder how much more we'd need to add to Bledsoe to get Kyrie...
That Bledsoe/LeBron/Rich Paul connection is real.

Re: Potential Trade Thread
Agreed. After I posted the trade, I looked at Rose's stats and he has become below average. I was trying to dump Kieff and get Portis. This isn't the way to do it.Barkley_34 wrote:Cutter wrote:This might have been posted already, if so I am not trying to steal your thunder.

Re: Potential Trade Thread
here's a thought.....
Festus Ezeli for Sonny Weems and our 2016 1st round pick
Golden State has to let somebody walk. Barnes, Speights, Rush and Ezeli are all free agents this summer. they might as well get a (late lottery-late teens, wherever we end up finishing) first round pick out of it.
as for Kieff, we deal him whenever we can, but at least we have our guy. or at least a pretty good one.

Come on now.
Ezeli is beasting for them as backup center, their passing is making Ezeli look like a 15 million dollar big man.
