Those will be late first round picks, not saying they are useless but when you have 11 FRPs in the next 7 years, it's time to cash in some. And they maybe able to restock soon should they trade Randle and Robinson.
Weren't they rumored to be in on Mitchell two summers ago -- that was the player to use multiple FRPs on. I like Mikal - one of my favorite players but he is for sure a role player.
Well he seems to be highly valued. Memphis apparently offered a ton of picks for him. He is one of the beset 3&D guys, hits a high % of 3s, can cut, is a solid passer, never turns it over, and created his own shot. And by most analysts, except for Slim, he is a top tier defender.
I am not sure all those picks are great either. I think some are heavily protected because I looked into him when I was looking at a potential KD trade for those picks, Randle, Hart and McBride.
Reading Bourguet, Flex and Gambo - they think all the Durant stuff is nonsense and the Suns are rolling with the Big 3. Which is fine
But its like they are not even thinking that maybe its the RIGHT thing to do is trade Durant, clear up some cap for the future, get more flexibility - maybe not a top heavy team and build for the future. Maybe the quartet of Booker, Ayton, Mikal and Cam wasn't the right foresome. But I just think with this roster, the lack of flexibility with the CBA - only getting older, its an uphill climb to even make the second round of the playoffs let alone the WCF and the NFL Finals.
Maybe he just asked out, who knows.
