Spurs can kick rocks if they aren't offering Castle. They are being greedy by having Fox but also eyeing Harper in the draft. They can kick rocks because chances are they would trade Castle for a haul to build more around KD, Fox and Wemby.

His camp literally leaked to Shams that he doesn't want to go to Minny. That's why they leaked it. So Minny drops their offer down, since he'd be a rental.

I don’t care at all about future picks. That is just a gamble and you can pick some up as time goes on

We need to get some talent that can play now.

I dont think we would give up #9 since he's likely gone after a year.

Sorry, no chance without the 9th pick. And two 2nds for KD would have the suns hanging up and blocking Toronto's number. Honestly, any deal with Toronto would require the 9th pick inclusion, otherwise the value thresholds aren't met, and the package isn't close.

Phoenix would likely take any other package instead. :nod:


Totally fair. I dont think we are in this at all. Just gauging interest for shyts.

What about
JP
RJ
2026 FRP pick top 10 protected
Gradey dick


That's closer. But I believe the Suns are looking for a solid pick in this draft for a specific prospect. Now most other teams are offering a pick in the teens, but I'd actually prefer the loaded 26' draft myself. To close the deal, add one more 1st (for two 1sts) in 28' and it probably gets accepted.

** I'd probably trade Barrett for Cam Johnson, or to another team for picks. And I'd likely trade Poetl along with Allen to Orlando for Isaac/ Bidatze and picks, or to Charlotte for Salaune, Mark Williams and picks. Or to Washington with O'neale for Smart/ Holmes/ 18th pick.

I'd fo this to expand on the cumulative pick value and young players return. :nod:

Then Wolves are out. KD wants a nice warm town to live at.

Sounds similar to the Jimmy Butler scenario. KD wants a 3 year extension and some of the teams inquiring are only after the 1 year or a 2 year extension perhaps?

Rockets and Spurs probably going to bid against each other towards the end. Rockets may get desperate and cave in. Spurs are never desperate and are driven by principles with their culture so they won't overpay even by slightly for KD since they probably believe they can get someone younger for their assets.

Rockets think Suns 2027 and 2029 picks are their aces in their sleeve, and they aren't wrong.

Rockets will not gut their team and rotation for KD. They want to add KD to push up.

They at best would part with one young player and then trade picks. But depends if they really want out of Green's contract and see it as negative. Then only then, do I see two prospects being traded for KD and Rockets then taking off one of the first rounders.

Obviously! It was always going to be a Randle or Gobert centric package. This is why the inclusions of Di Vincenzo, Dillingham and the 17th AND 31st picks is so very critical to replenish lost value. :nod:

I was thinking that too. If we could get that then we could get lots of picks back for that maybe? Idk I like to dream

Suns asked for Jaden. Wolves said no. Hence why that report came out to let Ant know he isn't getting his buddy.

I reckon Houston is holding out on the future Suns picks and rightfully so. Just Jabari and fillers is a poor package. They’re not trading Sheppard.

Trading with the Spurs feels dirty
