We have seen Gortat playing at 4 in some stretches with Dwight. It worked there, why not here.

Actually I just realized that with Gortat you could start Frye and Lopez together.

Nash/Dragic
Richardson/Chilly
Hill/Dudley
Frye/Warrick
Lopez/Gortat

A barrage of threes coming at you in all directions like BOOM!!1!
But really, Suns wouldn't have a bad lineup.
Nash/Dragic
Dudley/Childress
Hill/Pietrus
Shard/Frye/Warrick
Lopez/Gortat

Still doesn't fix the problem of rebounding...


If this was Shard of like...2 years ago, then maybe I'd be like "yeaaaah boiiiiii".

But the guy has declined in every statistical category for 3 straight seasons now!

Lewis tested positive for elevated testosterone by taking a steroid last year. Said he accidentally took an over the counter medication that had the banned substance in it. It really seems coincidental but any time an athlete is caught taking 'roids and uses the "I accidentally took it" excuse they inevitably go into decline.

We don't need two centers starting, just have Gortat start and Frye be power forward. Gortat is definitely better than Bass, and has a higher IQ too IMO.
The best scenario.
Suns get-
Gortat
Pietrus

Magic get-
Hedo
Arenas

Wizards get-
Vince Carter

Suns would have enough money over the offseason to max out any free agent they want, possibly even get Marc Gasol while giving JRich a reasonable contract. I don't think picks are even needed to make any of these deals work because Wizards get out of a horrible contract, so the Magic are doing them a favor, Suns might have to give one up though.

Like I said in my post, I wouldn't want Lewis here because of his contract, but he would fit well in our system. And to be honest, I think it would be fun to watch a lineup that has all five guys who can shoot the three ball. But I really wouldn't want Shard here if it came down to it.

Edit:

Magic in a bit of panic mode right now. They have lost 5 of the last 6 games, and it is becoming obvious they are not in the same league talent wise as Boston or Miami. I can see them concerned about winning this year, but also that big Dwight might jump ship like LeBron and Melo if Orlando can't get him a championship team.

After another recent loss:
"Dwight Howard according to sources vented pretty aggressively at both Stan Van Gundy and Otis Smith, urging change."

Apparently the Wizards are trying to get more than an expiring for Gilbert Arenas. Honestly, they should be happy with just getting Vince Carter, I'd take that and run with it. It gives John Wall a better suited two guard, and they get to completely rebuild instead of having the corpse of Agent Zero lingering around.

Ewww, this guy is saying Magic are looking at Hedo, JRich for VC, Gortat, and Anderson. I just remembered how much of a cancer Vince Carter is. Though, I thought that about JRich too at one point.
