Well where to start?
The Turkoglu trade (the first one) looks to have been a panic move. I don't blame him one bit for anything that happened considering the guy gave up money to come here. It was clear though after the first few games it just wasn't going to work out. I'm surprised they were able to find a taker but than again he thrived in that system and it was worth a gameble for them.
So the Suns got...
Gorat, who already the Suns best center since Mark West in my POV (I know people will disagree but I still think Lopez is a bust and I know Shaq was on this team but that was like a rental basically). If this guy gets around 30 minutes per game I wouldn't be surprised if he averages a double-double. He's not going to be an all-star but he will rebound and play defense, when was the last time a Suns center did that?
Carter, I'm not sure why people think J-Rich is better, sure he's younger but even though Carter isn't the guy he once was he's probably still going in the HOF considering he's almost at 20k career points. Anyway he will do well in this system, at worst he takes J-Rich's place. Chances are they arn't going to bring him back but if he can turn his career around, who knows? Maybe they can re-sign him at a cheaper rate.
Peitrus, Suns got a solid wing defender, along with Hill they have two players that are solid defenders now.
Also a first round pick which is nice...
I'd give this trade an A+ considering I thought it would take picks to trade Turkoglu...
