In light of the recent Bynum news, what would it honestly take to get Shaq from you guys?

And can we please keep this to honest, legit answers?

Thanks guys

Lamar, Radmanovic and a pack of Gummy Bears.

Odom + VladRad sounds about right

UGH! Who want Rad?? He is awful. LO isn't making me smile either. I highly doubt the Suns trade Shaq to their division rival. The Lakers have won enough rings over the years. Lets see Mitch pull another miracle. Maybe he can send Rad to Memphis for the other Gasol brother. LOL

Bynum and Sasha.

I honestly believe we would do that in a heart beat.......Ariza and Powell can more than make up for LO.

Call Sarver for us please

I saw this coming. Bynum goes down and Laker-land panics! But to answer you question, I would take Bynum & Lamar. You can have Porter as an assistant if you want too.

Odom + Radman = Done deal

Are you guys really suns fans saying you'd do Odom and Rad for Shaq? That is a JOKE of a deal, unless we're also getting Farmar or Vujacic...

Nope.

Getting Lamar back in a trade would essentially look like this for the Suns.

Suns Trade
Shawn Marion
Marcus Banks

Suns Get
Lamar Odom
Vladamir Radmonivic

That's loser talk.

You forgot the middle part where Shaq is playing at an All Star level for us and keeping the team alive.

Funny how "ESSENTIAL" the part you left out is to the story.

if a trade involving shaq goes down, let the rebuilding officially start! could be a good thing or a bad thing.

rebuilding should of started this past off season.shaqs keep a sinking ship a float for us right now but were going to hit the bottom of the ocean sooner or later.

Bynum needs to be included.

He put up big numbers, but are we winning consistently? No. At the past we had 3 players averaged close to a double-double in Nash, Marion and Amare. And then we had role players to score a lot of points and play defense. And we were winning. This Shaq-ball thing isn't working for us. He is taking shots away from other players. Plain and simple. Not hating on Shaq, he's been playing great, it's how he's being used that is the problem. We can run the offense through him, but we need balance. And he should be the 3rd option behind Nash and Amare, not he's the 1st 2nd and 3rd option in the offense.

Not sure if you are aware, but we're not exactly stacked at the center positions.

A Shaq for Odom and Radman wouldn't help that

The Suns haven't been to the bottom of the ocean in 30 years. They've posted at least 25 wins for the last 39 years - despite the fact that 8 teams (LAC, MIL, NYK, MEM, SEA, MIA, BOS, POR) have played at that level in just the last 3 seasons.

There's always a team (or four) at that level, but it's never the Phoenix Suns.
