Suns FO - Stupid stupid 

Post#1 » by statisback » Sun Aug 24, 2008 4:11 pm

I cant believe all the incredibly idiotic decisions the Front Office did the last 4 years.

Traded Deng/Iggy for Q Rich

Traded KT and 2 first round picks for cash?

Traded Rondo for cash

Trade Rudy Fernandez and James Jones for Cash

Traded Marion for Shaq

WOW!

I can't believe I wasted my time opening such an incredibly irrelevant thread.

Yeah alot of trades they made were dissapointing but it's going to be interesting to see what happens in 2010. Mainly because Sarver is all about money and if he doesn't have a winning product on the floor and tickets don't sell that would be a interesting situation but we should wait and see who the Suns sign in 2010 and what moves they make.

they signed barnes, get ghill for the minimum. they traded for shaq, signed steve nash - they also signed raja bell, come on, this is just ridicolous.
they have a plan and are putting 100% in theyre goal...

First off. Q helped us go 62-20. Can't help it if JJ got messed up in playoffs. Second, Those picks would not have played. Although I would love to have Donte Green. Third, I guarantee Dragic can do what Rondo can. Third Rudy cannot play defense. He is a 3pt gunner....you'll see. and Fourth, The Shaq trade was great. Barnes will replace Marion. Like the other post says; we have done some good things too.

You guys have to understand; everyone cannot be great. If Deng was drafted, he probably would not have become the player he did. Look at JJ and Billups. A player has to be in the right situation to excel. Do people think that Rudy, Bayless, Roy, LMA, Oden, Batum, Webster and Outlaw are all going to be good on that team. NO WAY!! You gotta play. I love our directions right now. Locked and ready and ready to reload in 2010!!

Yeah, some of those moves were not smart ones. Good to point out the obvious. :roll:

However, like many have said, there are two sides of the story, and have brought in some amazing players.

One decision that has not been fully made, I will hammer them on right now. They have put waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to much in Dragic as the future. Yes, we needed a backup really bad, but patience and ignorance has been a curse to this organization. The missed Rondo, instead are selling Dragic to us. But they are going to miss out IMO on an amazing PG of the future in Patrick Mills!!!

this kid at St. Mary’s was amazing and is for real. He proved it by how he played in the Olympics. suns will be stuck with Dragic, won't have the peices to get Mills etc, and we will see that Dragic was over hyped by Kerr. I know, there still is a chance we could get him, but I am not holding my breath.

Our FO has been a blessing, and a curse at the same time IMO.

SDU’s prodigy will not end up in a suns uni. Don’t worry about that Ricky Rubio kid either. Geez.

ignoring overpaying dragic and all that, we will have to wait and see. IMO on current form, mills will be a late first early second (correct me if im wrong) and so we could draft him. nash will be leaving and if dragic plays well we will need a back up to him after nash. mills would be great. u never know wat will happen though

oh many of us have thought of this before, trust me. We're just too afraid to bring up because its goint to aggrevate all of us all over again. This thread was made because Rudy had a good game against team USA, that's all. Let me tell you why some names were mentioned here: About Rudy, The guy will get dominated at the 2 or 3 spot in the NBA, has no defense and no physical strength. You brought up Patrick Mills cause realgm brough his name up. Dragic is the same type of player, maybe even better. About KT, yeah that was stupid and we all know it, that's the only move I regret. About Marion, we were never gonna win it with him at the 4 either way, you all know that. Well Rondo, wasn't gonna get the exposure here in PHX because of Nash, he got minutes in Boston because he was the only true PG in the roster both years he's been there. enough said.
