Who should fill the last roster spot? 

Post#1 » by eastsidecrossover » Thu Dec 11, 2008 9:30 pm

So who should the suns go after for the last roster spot.

Since Dragic is not going to be the backup PG this year, we need a vet backup.

Gambo said Sam Cassel in the right player for this team as the backup. He is better than any other better backup we have had.

So who is the guy we need to backup this team?

Cassell is ancient, but if we can get him, sure.

I still vote Cancerbury

DJ Srawbs would be perfect if he changed his mind and accepted taking backup player minutes, but I doubt he changes his mind, and getting him to leave his new club would cost us some.

Wouldn't mind giving the Alien a shot.

I have a feeling the Suns are going to make another trade, possibly on or after Dec 15 when alot of players are able to be traded. If you look at it, if the Suns had this trade planned it wouldn't take them this long to pick a vetran pg for the vets minimum, that could still be the case but I have a feeling it will be a trade...

DJ HELL NO

the last thing we need is another inexperienced player

we MUST get a veteran backup PG who has 5+ years of NBA experience - ive been screaming for it all year and now we have a chance....

antonio daniels, marbury, cassell, tinsley, damon jones, heck anyone with experience who can run the point

How long is a team allowed to have just 12 players on the roster?

Antonio Daniels just got traded to the Hornets, seriously doubt they move him.
We need a backup guy who can play defense, such as DJ.

1. Michael Harris sf-pf played for Houston is he on a team? undersized yes but aggressive
2. Nick Fazekas PF- C that has range and played decent as a rookie in cleanup time for the Clippers last season
3. Daniel Horton - overseas pg. simply because theres still a glaring weakness there at backup pg
4. Ekene Ibweke - Undersized pf that is a defensive gem.
5. Bryce Taylor - Oregon Duck

i think we should make a play for tyron lue, he's never gets any playing time with the bucks as they try to improve sessions and he's got a lot of veteran experience

I forgot about Cassell, I'd like to see him come to Phoenix.

What about Mighty Mouse?

I'm not sure about The Butler - after all, Jones is the self-professed "best 3 point shooter in the league".

Cancerbury would be nice, but his contract won't allow it to happen.

Now that Boris is gone, Cancerbury can wear 3 again if he comes back.
