Suns Get: Brand/Ridnour/#4
Suns Give: Amare/Barbosa/#15

Clippers Get: Amare/#15
Clippers Give: Brand/#7

Sonics Get: Barbosa/#7
Sonics Give: Ridnour/#4

Thoughts?

See everyone should be opposed to anything that requires Amare being dealt.

Especially for Brand, who is coming off a huge injury for which we have to see how he returns to form.

Amare is to young and still very raw. But he is a beast, and may offensively talented than Brand.

If there is anyone we should be looking into from the Clips, its Maggette. We need a man who can play tough defense, drive to the basket relentlessly and create his own show off the dribble.


My Wish-List for One Key Addition this Offseason:
Richard Jefferson (I dont even think this is possible)

OR

Corey Maggette (realistic possibility, and my god we would improve in so many ways... he just does so many things well that he would really complement our new developing offense)

Bench Players:
Micheal Peitrus or Matt Barnes

We should aim for a little more versatility and defensive toughness off the bench. We can pick up really good defensive options this summer by just using the MLE wisely.

Would you guys do Brand/Maggette/future first for Amare/Barbosa?

Again, Amare should not be dealt. Maggette would have to be a S&T so why would we include Barbosa? We could just get Maggette in the FA.

Nothing against you bud, but the Clips make out like bandits on this one. It's obvious the Suns get screwed.

^ How could you "just get Maggette in the FA?" You think he'll take the MLE. Good luck.

Yes, we have a better chance at landing Mags with the MLE than you guys in getting us to trade Amare.

Horrible trade idea.
