Driving around, heard Gambo and Luke - he mentioned the Suns were going to talk to Tyson Chandler about coming back this season. Gambo said last season Tyson wanted out but nothing happned. This year, with Ayton, maybe he sees little playing time, losing season and wants out.
So is that a buyout - I mean, what would he take - 11m, so 2.5 off. Or a trade - like expiring for expiring. Lin for Chandler if the Suns need a PG. Denver - Faried for Chandler - does that make any sense? Lakers want an expiring but I think they want the team to add a first round pick. The Clippers - I know they got Gortat but Chandler for Beverly/Boban. Not seeing a market for Chandler but maybe I will be surprised. I would be happy if the Suns got 2-3m of cap space for Tyson if he wants out.
Wait, I thought last year he said he wanted to stay? I distinctly remember McD saying he got a call from Chandler's agent or from Chandler, thinking he was going to say he wanted out, and it was the opposite and that he really wanted to stay.
I thought the same thing. That they asked if he wanted to be traded and he said No. Maybe with a year left on his deal - eaiser to trade but again, it will either be for a guy with multiple years so the team is taking say 13m this year to get rid of a guy on a 2/25 or something like that so the other team gets an expiring for next summer and the Suns get a player for two years - not sure about that option. Or buyout - but I don't think the cap savings is instant - but maybe wrong about that.
