Somebody update me.

Signed Tyson Chandler 4 years 52mil. Signed Brandon Knight 5 year/70mil. Had a meeting with LMA with Bledsoe/Knight/Chandler there, along with assistant coach Earl Watson who LMA is apparently very fond of. He also looks up to Chandler. We might have a pretty good shot of signing Aldridge.

Did anyone figure out what happened to the Morris Twins yesterday at the hearing?

I doubt McD would of said "Aldridge you are the main man in Phoenix", with Bledsoe, Knight there in the room.

Probably something like, "We need players like you, to be one of the leaders of this young but very competitive team", "We will create an inside outside approach to maximise your talents", "we need you to star along with Eric, Brandon and Tyson and help the city of Phoenix get their first championship next year"

Sooooooo...... after Lebron decides the best thing in his interest is to sign another 1 year deal with Cleveland, is he intrigued at the idea of joining a Bledsoe/Aldridge/Chandler team (with depth) in 2016 (when the salary cap jumps enough to give us room for another max FA)?

Bledsoe/Knight/Lebron/Aldridge/Chandler

As I sit in my hotel room in San Antonio...the weather is a lot nicer here than it is in Phoenix. In case no one knew....it rains all the time in Texas, I had no idea.

They gave the judge the finger and walked off.

Bledsoe/Knight/Lebron/Aldridge/Chandler

And we start a kickstarter/gofundme page to help pay for all those max deals.

but good Lord almighty we'd be unstoppable. Knight would rain 3's as a spot up shooter.

Just jumping in here but financially does anyone know how we can pull off Bled+Knight+Tyson+LMA?

Well I think they may do a double S&T of Wright for Chandler. I guess this could happen after signing LMA, and they could also do a S&T for him. We have to move someone else though I think.

Tempering expectations, but McD, you beautiful SOB, if you get this done

Top 10 Reasons for LMA to pick PHX.

1. Doesn't have to play center at all.
2. Can be the first to bring a Championship to Phoenix.
3. He is the focal point of the whole team.
4. Won't live in Duncan's shadow.
5. Tyson Chandler is significantly younger than Duncan, and has more of a relationship to LMA.
6. Duncan is old as dirt and probably only has 1 solid year left.
7. Manu is on the verge of retirement.
8. Parker is 33, and will most likely bang his wife the first opportunity he gets.
9. Future is brighter in PHX: Bledsoe/Knight/Len/Warren/Booker > Leonard/Green
10. Chino Banditos

The last thing that McDonough whispered to Aldridge in our meeting was... "Tim Duncan is the best PF ever to play the game, enjoy playing with him".
Genius.

No, that probably makes him want to learn from em. Should be, no matter what you do with the Spurs, Tim Duncan will always be their best all-time big man, followed by David Robinson.
In Phoenix, you will go down as the best PF to put on the Suns uniform.

Bledsoe/Knight/Lebron/Aldridge/Chandler

Only if he wins Cavs a championship ring... they will forgive him for leaving twice.

Then he comes to Phoenix, wins they their first ring... then leaves again...

finds his next city to bring their first championship.

This way, Lebron will surpass Jordan that he brought multiple cities their first championship. He will have 3-4 statues.... :-)

YOU DON'T KNOW FOR SURE IT WAS THEM. There are plenty of 6'9 identical people who drive that type of car.
