That'd be a steal for our team, no chance anyone bites. :lol:

So, does anyone think we make any moves by the trade deadline?

It could all be PR spin of course, but it just sounds like our FO is perfectly fine with being mediocre and trying to compete for the last playoff spot in the West and probably falling short again and ending up with a 10-15 pick,

I don't why but my heart tells me that we'll do a trade again with Houston.

No idea for what players though. I hope its for Marcus Morris though

^ I could see us flipping them Lopez for Budinger...not much else though cos I doubt they're moving Lowry

I could see them doing something like Gasol + filler for Scola + Lowry, then throw Dragic out there

Suns Get- Isaiah Thomas, Zaza, Hickson
Kings get- Marvin Williams, Frye
ATL get- Robin Lopez, John Salmon

What do you guys think?

I would do that trade in a heartbeat but I`m not sure Kings and Hawks would be as enthusiastic.

Kings trading Isaiah Thomas is like Knicks trading Lin....(to a much lesser extent, but still comparable :-)

)

Its not gonna happen.

They simply move Tyreke to the 2 and BOOM.... Thomas starts. Tyreke can be a solid 2.

ilyasova for lopez =)

Why do I keep seeing people with moist panties for Marcus Morris - no knock on him, but I don't see him being part of the "who we need conversation"

If Dragic ends up on the lakers I will really be screwed

I don't get it either. I like him but I can't really see him as an impact player, even off the bench. He's nothing special athletically, he doesn't really have much of an inside game and he's not that tough/imposing physically. He's basically a shorter Frye.

Magic fan here. just wanted to come in and ask if you think the Magic have any chance at Nash, if so, who would you like in return for him? sorry if this has been asked before, or, if it annoys you guys at all. I just wanted to know.

Ok then the Suns can trade for Marcus Thornton then. He would actually be a very good starter at SG for this team. Or we can even move him to 6th man and get some production off the bench.

We need more picks to trade up!

I'm trying to figure it out for you. He plays for Guandong, he averaged 21 points & 5 assists on 52% shooting and 42% 3-point shooting in 29 minutes per game. They are in the Quaterfinals which takes place 2/22, 2/24, 2/26 then possibly on to the Semis and the FInals which could take him well into March if his team plays well.

+100

Baffles me every time. He is a rookie. He will have good games. He will have bad games. Just like the other 15-20 rookies now. But he's done nothing to show he's an impact, big-time type of starting power forward.

He's got the 'Suns-killer' mentality that Laker players have. I could see him on the Lakers for sure. And he's gonna be torching the Suns everytime they meet. Just got that feeling if and when it happens..

Nobody will be trading FOR Lopez especially when the writing is on the wall with Suns not going to re-sign him. Every GM knows Suns not too fond of him and his attitude - not to mention he's regressed in each of his seasons.

Why would anybody trade FOR Lopez knowing he's a free agent they could have for a few bucks in a couple months?

Realistically, you may see a Childress amnesty; although I still doubt it cause they like his character and works hard.

Best case scenario is a Nash and Price re-sign, Frye/Warrick trade, a 10-12th pick draftee, maybe bring back Michael Redd, and splash away with ONE semi-big free agent such as Mayo, Beasley, Nick Young, Batum, or something like that.
