Charlotte, Washington, Milwaukee, New Orleans, Sacramento.

Houston very possibly will get worse as well.

I think we can be similar level to Memphis if we get Gordon. If we dont then it would probably be wise to see how we fare this season with what we have.

Milwaukee and Washington will be better, they'll fight for the PO.

Charlotte, Cleveland, Detroit, NOLA, Phoenix and Sacramento, that's bottom 6 of the league, Orlando and Houston could make it too.

Okay, say we are bottom 5 next season. We have two good young point guards, a young 3/4 in Beasy with a ton of upside, possibly a good young 2 and a top 5 draft pick and a late round pick from the Lakers. Is that a bad thing? Unless the Suns don't have their pick next year (do we?)
SHAZAM!

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

Yes, we have all of our picks now and 4 more courtesy of LA.

If we're picking 10-14 again we have more ammo to trade up. Give up a couple 1sts and take on a bad contract if it gets us a top 3 selection. People don't think late 1sts are important but look at guys that went in the high 20's last month -

#25 - Tony Wroten
#27 - Arnett Moultri
#28 - Perry Jones III
#29 - Marquis Teague

Those picks have some value...

Ehmm well, you know that when the Suns are deep in the lottery, it has to be a weak draft, don't you? :lol:

We'll be bottom 5 and finally get a nice draft pick if the Hornets retain Eric Gordon.

If we get Gordon, we'll be a fringe playoff team, or better if we manage to land a good SF.
