Official Trade Thread: Part 3

Revived · Post #741 » by **Revived** » Sat Jun 23, 2012 5:18 am

I would do it for Westbrook. The best thing about that trade is gonna be that we're gonna be the worst team in the NBA next season and we can the Noels or Mohammad kid and BOOM, we have a dynasty of our own.

Plus getting Westbrook may get Dwight here as well. The pressure would be off him on offense and all he would have to do would be defending the paint and rebounding.

Westbrook is untouchable but they aren't paying 3 guys max contracts. Clay Bennett will spend but they're not the Lakers. I'm sure they'll re-up Ibaka because he's 22 and their best big man. Harden is a goner IMO.

Damn it I wish I never heard about this Harden thing...now I want him in Phoenix really badly!!

Actually because he didnt play as well on the finals, OKC might be able to keep both of them.
Teams that were going to offer max to Harden before the finals probably changed their minds by now.

They will probably find a way to get rid of Perkins and sign both Harden and Ibaka

A 5 game sample size isn't changing anyone's mind. There was a poll that Chris Broussard did saying 14 GM's felt he was worth the Max. He was brilliant against Dallas and San Antonio.

if Suns have Marshall at No.13, it could mean they have a trade for another pick either top 10 or top 20...

Is there talk that we're looking at Marshall now?

He has visited/workout for us twice already (along with Arnett Moultrie)

Don't be surprised if Lamb, Rivers, and Waiters are gone and we go with Kendall!

GrantHill · Post #748 » by **GrantHill** » Sat Jun 23, 2012 5:15 pm

If those wing prospects like Lamb, Ross or Waiters are gone, I'm fine with Marshall as our pick. If someone like Ross is available, we have to take him, no question about it.

GrantHill · Post #749 » by **GrantHill** » Sat Jun 23, 2012 9:03 pm

After watching Schmitz' video about Marshall, I really began to like his game. His shots doesn't look bad as expected. Give me Shawn Marion and the 17th pick and select Marshall and Ross. Add Darrell Arthur via free agency.

PG: Steve Nash / Kendall Marshall / Sebastian Telfair
SG: Terrence Ross / Jared Dudley / Michael Redd
SF: Grant Hill / Shawn Marion / Josh Childress
PF: Markieff Morris / Darrell Arthur / Hakim Warrick
C: Marcin Gortat / Channiing Frye

We get our future PG, they get themselves their C. Instead of the Bucks hoping Leonard/Zeller are still around to draft at #12, they draft their new PG, Marshall.

Bucks end up with: Marshall/Ellis/Mbah a Moute/Ilyasova/Gortat

They'd never give you both and the pick for The Gortat
But if they did, take it.

love Sanders

Post #751 » by **TASTIC** » Sat Jun 23, 2012 10:50 pm

^Yeah I'd love Sanders here too. Seems like he's just needing some time and he could be a Dalembert kind of player (back in Phill)

JohnVancouver · Post #752 » by **JohnVancouver** » Sun Jun 24, 2012 6:33 pm

since marshall was mentioned already, read today that he shot 40% from 3 - surprised me.

but I want us to pick up a late teens pick and get Royce White

Frank Lee · Post #753 » by **Frank Lee** » Sun Jun 24, 2012 10:15 pm

I think cleve will be our best bet for a pick. We seem to always be talking with them. Doubt that gets White though it could snag QMiller or Terrance Jones... two of my desired late pickups.

Thursday will be here before we know it.

Bulk · Post #754 » by **Bulk** » Mon Jun 25, 2012 12:00 am

Only me having the (bad) feeling we will just draft at #13 and don't do anything else?

Thrusday, come quick please!

95% chance, Suns just drafting at Pick 13.

Because it takes 2 to tango (trades) and chances are other teams have better offers.

It's an improvement over selling the pick, but just barely. Draft day for Suns fans is like waiting for the train to take you to Auschwitz.

Train to Auschwitz? Hopefully this was a brain cramp and you are not really equating your anxiety about the draft selection of a basketball player to the transport of Jews to one of the most vile death camps in the holocaust?

Obvious troll is obvious. It doesn't matter if it wasn't grammatically correct, his point was clear - no need to grief him over it.

My obvious point is that we are all adults (or at the very least should act like it) and, as such, should refrain from trying to police each other over the internet.

If Kerrsed or Miklo decide that it's inappropriate, that's one thing.

Otherwise, let's all take a step beack from DEFCON 5 and realize what Johnny V was attempting to stress. No offense meant clearly - no reason to freak out about it - no reason to requisition its removal. We read the post and move on.

Life's too short.
