Re: There Goes Our Shot At TWILL! :(
Now the Rockets have three 2 guards in Martin, Lee and T. Will. Are they going to run with that or is this part of other trades? What are the Rockets team needs?

Another wing is exactly what this team is missing.

Suns need to get rid of a wing player... We gotta trade Dudley.

AR for part of the Amare TE and a lottery protected future 1st.
Kerrsed, I am so down with this trade, I'd have to get on my toes just to kiss a midget's naval

Suns wouldn't trade Hill though unless Nash was to go with him. Duds has to go, we need to open up some minutes anyway.

Re: There Goes Our Shot At TWILL! :(
I'm beginning to think that the Suns are starting to be a bit too nice of a franchise. Yes, Nash and Hill have done a lot for us. They have been great leaders and role models for our younger players. But we are letting them waist what little time they have to play at this high of a level. I think this is the season we blow it up.
We aren't doing so hot at the moment, 12-12 isn't good. Yeah I know I have said before that we are still trying to figure things out and so on, but right now we could obtain a lot of good young talented players, but if we wait, we'll end up a borderline playoff team for the next 3-4 years and then have to rebuild. I think we should do it now.
Duds should stay, he's on a reasonable contract, great hustle player, 3 point shooter, still fairly young. By the time we rebuild and have time to gel as a team with good young players, Dudley will still be a productive player doing his thing.
Let Nash and Hill get their rings while giving the Suns a good future. It's been a great run and both of those guys will make the Ring of Honor for us and will always be respected here. The least we can do for them is put them in a spot to finally get a ring. I don't want to continue this pattern of Suns players being the Best to never get a ring.
Besides the point of them deserving a ring, basketball is a business, and right now we aren't running the team like it is one. It is better for the franchise to rebuild right now instead of chasing for a ring in an era with a dominant Lakers team as well as 3 very good eastern conference teams. The likelihood of us winning is slim, might as well retool for the future. Sorry for the sort of doom and gloom post after a win, but I'm getting tired of the Suns being content with being a decent playoff team.
*Edit* - Better?

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Grant is the sh%t, but I am thinking 3-5 yrs down the road. It looks as though JCHill is the odd man out for ole Grant Hill. Huh..... why not keep a 38yr old over a 27 yr old who can do the same thing......Typical PHX Suns stuff
