The FO believes so.. They've seen enough of Alex Lens development this offseason that they're excited.. Len has extended his shot to 20ft.. He's also much stronger ..

They want him to be a SG... But he needs to improve his shot and be consistent.. Athletically , he has the tools..

They definitely like em considering he wasn't traded to Pistons. Could have switched em with Bullock because Bullock is suppose to be a 3 and D guy. Glad they didn't. Archie still has potential.

Is our starting line up set for next season or are we still looking for a starter quality player?

it will be interesting to see who has a better NBA career between Archie and bullock. I think what saved Archie is this coaching staff has 2 full years invested into trying to make him an NBA player. And the fact he supposedly is a hard worker helps him get a shot. He needs to play this year. They need to know if he's an actual NBA player at this point and if not move on. If so he's eligible for and extension next summer and will be an rfa the next year. I'm not saying he needs 30 mins a game but he need some.

Could we get Derrick Favors for Bledsoe, Keef and a 1st? I'm much more confident in a core of

Knight/?
Goodwin/Booker/Bogdanovic
Warren/Bogdanovic
Favors/?
Len/Chandler

Bullock's scored 2 PPG on 35% FG as a late 1st round pick and playing for his 3rd team.

Archie continues to get disrespected. When Jeff pulls his head out of his ass and starts to play him you will all see.

Only FAs I can see as starters for us now would be Josh Smith (please no) or Enes Kanter (maybe).

Otherwise would require a trade for a SF or PF or we go in with Bledsoe, Knight, Tucker, Morris, Chandler.

Kanter is the worst defensive big I've ever seen. He shouldn't start over anyone. For all the crap people give Markieff for his D--Kanter is SOOO much worse.

Also I doubt spurs are winning any titles. Leonard Aldridge and Parker aren't enough Duncan and ginobs won't be much in playoffs. Golden state will be the reigning champs for a while.

If Ray Ray is still around, I would be interested in how the FO thinks Keef will do now that Marcus is gone

The Suns DO NOT need to bring a SG. Play Booker!!!!!! I would be pissed if Suns brought in a SG after drafting Booker. Get rid of Tucker too, no reason for him. Do not want to see 1 on 3 fastbreaks anymore.

Is it too soon to look at 2016 Free Agents.
