2014 Official FA Thread 2

[WeekapaugGroove]

Another theory could be the meeting that Toronto wanted with Bosh might not have been about playing for the Raptors, but for PHX.

"We can't offer you max dollars Bosh, but we really want Ennis if we are sending out Lowry, and PHX can pay you big time."

Three way in the works?

Core parts (filler added to balance value):

Lowry to MIA
Ennis to TOR
Bosh to PHX

bosh didn't opt out to leave Miami and even if he did leave why would either him or the suns participate in a sign and trade when he could just sign here out right. He's not a rfa.

Probably to lead our Summer League team to the championship like he did with the Warriors.

Why the fuss about a PF? Maybe we've already got our starting PF...

[sunsbum]

I really think the Suns should try and go after Chandler Parsons the first day of free agency and sign him to a sheet that the Rockets won't match until they know they can't get Lebron or Melo

TJ Warren is our new stud SF. We have no need for Parsons, Deng, Batum, Granger or any other SF.

Tucker starts the year as the starting SF, Warren finishes the year as starting SF.

WHAT? he hasnt played a single minute yet. I cant be the only one who isnt drinking the TJ Warren koolaid.

That makes little sense. If bosh wanted to play here we'd just sign him. He's a UFA and we have plenty of cap space. Why give up Ennis just to facilitate an unnecessary trade?

Gary Woelfel, who covers the Bucks, said on Twitter that he's heard that the Bucks have already offered Jason Kidd the role of team president, although that has not been confirmed.

This story is developing at light speed and it's quite possible that Kidd already had a deal in place with the Bucks before he went to the Nets with his seemingly outrageous demands to control the organization. In another interesting twist, someone posted this exact scenario playing out on a Nets message board at RealGM.com a couple days ago (including Kidd running the Bucks), and also said that the Nets will next pursue Mark Jackson as their next head coach. While this is purely speculation, two things seem to be quite clear. 1. Kidd will not be returning to the Nets, regardless of what happens with the Bucks. 2. Kidd's close relationship with the new co-owner of the Bucks is a big deal, and it appears that he could very well be on his way to at least the team presidency, and could also end up coaching the team, although reports of whether he would also coach the team are unclear. Stay tuned.

Didnt know where to post this and didnt want to create a separate thread for this, but thought this was hella interesting, specially with the RealGM Forum connection!

Not only am I drinking the kookaid, I added a shot of vodka to it as I sit here on the beach in San Diego on vacation. Warren koolaid and vodka are not to be underestimated my friend.

As have i Cutter. Ive been a Warren supporter from day 1. Love that the Suns finally drafted a guy that i was gun-ho for.

Hey, I'm drinking a little vodka myself while watching random netflix movies in between posting. I lived in San Diego for a year and half. Better place for a weekend getaway than to live in my opinion. Not sure why, but I enjoyed it much more making the five hour drive from Phx and sitting on the beach for a couple of days. When you live there, going to the beach and finding parking seems much more like a hassle.

Though if you have a dog, the dog beach is cool, and not very crowded.

Something to look for.. Bledsoe and Warren have something in common and you guys will exploit it going forward.
I will let you guys determine what that is. lol

Bazemore is a very young and talented dude. Seems to have the same problems G Green had before he got here... shot selection, ball hog and that thing between his ears aint always on. Maybe the front office thinks he can be fixed. Kid is a real scorer. Why are we persuing all these damn guards??? RAY RAY!?!?!?!!! you got anything????

There is really no downside. It's not like it would take much money to sign him. If McD thinks it's worth it, I trust him. Hate to see him become a stud somewhere else.

You realize that Warren was at LeBron's skills academy and that's why he took a pic with him right? I'm sure a lot of the other kids who were at LeBron's camp probably took a pic with him.

Warren doesn't even look like he likes LeBron in that pic.

Where is Bazemore gonna find playing time? We like 50 guards on this team already.

I'll assure you that Archie Goodwin is far better than Bazemore.

I don't doubt that. My point is if we have to use cap space this summer I'd rather use small dollars on guys who could blossom into stars than pay huge sums to declining vets. It's almost like another draft pick with a year of NBA experience. I don't care if he's just on the practice squad or plays in the D league.

Looks like the big 3 is staying together.

Hopefully Melo stays in NY or joins the Bulls. If he joins the Rockets, we are in trouble. If he joins the Heat, everyone is in trouble.

Regardless, I hope both those guys stay in the East. The Clipper, Rockets, Spurs, and OKC are tough enough as it is.
