Did Brewer go to Kentucky or something for the Suns to love him so much?
Please stop trolling the board with your nonsense. They need to match salaries. I doubt they want him. His shooting is terrible. But it's probably him or if they want to do it sooner, it would have to be Lawson, and I'm sure you'll then go on about the Suns being obsessed about PGs. Personally if they want Jones (I know you want D-Mo but he is not likely going anywhere) I'd just make the trade now and take on Lawson and waive him or whatever and send out Tucker too.
Who gives a s**t, Terrence Jones isn't the next Charles Barkley we shouldn't have to take on one of the worst contracts in the NBA to get an decent not great player in Jones. Jones btw is a player that most of their fans on their forum clutchfans hate similar to Bucks fans on Knight but who cares let's just hoard as many Kentucky players as possible.
I would rather just trade Kieff for an expiring contract like David Lee (expiring contract) then even if it's a 3 way but with us only getting Lee in return.
If the Suns want Terrence Jones oh so badly, then they can wait 6 months and sign him then when the Rockets aren't gonna care about matching the hefty contract he recieves since they have ton of talented big men plus would probably rather use money to get help for Harden on the perimeter, not the front court.
If we somehow miss out on him, oh well. T-Jones isn't some super hot prospect to cry over so no big loss.
Well, I'm not entirely sure they want him that bad. That's why I said IF they want Jones, that's what they have to do. I had originally thought Brewer only had one more year, so I certainly don't like the contract either but it would be nice to get a guy that might WANT to help the player night in and night out that we have complete control over. It's hard enough to get Free Agents, so Restricted ones are the best ones to have. He's still young, in a rookie contract, won a national championship, is athletic, and block shots and hit 3s.
I mean an athletic stretch 4 is kind of what we want. His age fits us. He can be a perimeter player. He has gotten much better shooting every year and shoots over 40% from 3. I don't know how many rookie contract PFs shoot over 40% from 3 but I'm guessing the list isn't long. He's really exactly the kind of player we need. athletic, shoots 3s well and can block shots.
I think getting restricted free agents is pretty valuable because you KNOW you have them. We knew we had Kieff but screwed that up, or the twins did it to themselves, so it would be best to get a guy you know you can keep instead of shoot for the stars on a FA star and miss.
Everyone is going to have cap space and the premier free agents are not likely going anywhere.
