Suns announced that they are invited these two to camp......

Yup.
I thought the Suns were gonna get Dan Dickau a few seasons ago. I wouldn't mind either player just to beef up our roster.
But...
I doubt the Suns will sign anyone else.

The only thing I can see is if one of them makes a good enough impression on the coaches, they would sign them and send Griffin to NBAD for the season......

I hope we get Powell...that guy's a highlight reel and would be awesome catching lobs all day

Does he have any defensive ability ??? All he has to do is standout at camp............

He's not a ridiculous athlete like Josh or JR, but he uses his body well and can get up and board as well

which team invited ostertag? is this all we are inviting?

Whatever came of Powell's drink and drive/weapons incidents? He get off?

Also, Spurs have released J McLinton. We don't really need a small outside shooter though - I wonder if NY is interested?

well at least Dickau picked us over BOS. I wouldn't mind Dickau, he's a ligitimate PG. This will keep LB at his natural 2 guard position.

McClinton is small but if he keeps up his tenacity on the defensive side he will have a solid NBA career. He has a beautiful shot, is quick, and possesses a great bball IQ.

Dickau is a pure point but he's not much of a defender. Having him in the back court with LB would be the same defensively as LB and Nash back court.

We have more need of a backup C.

It's a shame Suns are bringing in a player in order to showcase for other teams to sign.

Dikau himself said he is coming to Phx so that his talents can be seen by other teams and hopes somebody signs him.

Suns are stupid enough to allow something like this. Helping other teams instead of improving your own is a philosophy Saver has followed for a long time.

And what a tease to bring in a camp invite while telling him we don't want to sign you.

good point.

If we were going for pure hops and no defense or shooting then I would definitely go after Taurian Fontinette. Was a good prospect a few years back, then broke his foot and lost all his opportunities. Some of you who watched And1 videos or Team Flight Brothers might have seen him before, he did the first 720 dunk and is an absolute leaping freak.

Would never happen, but it would be interesting to see what he would do against real pros.

Ridiculous!
Like the Suns need ANOTHER guard???

What they need is a big man who can play center and rebound like a mad man!!

To be honest I would have really liked to see Courtney Sims come back. He never got the opportunity to play here but I saw him at the NBDL All Star Game and he dominated in the post.

I would rather see Stromile Swift get another chance!

I'd like either one to come back
