Imagine sticking him with

Bledsoe
Lebron
Green
Morris
Morris

and running teams out of the building.

Or being a PF

Bledsoe
Dragic
Green
Lebron
Frye


Do you think Dragic will leave or what? Because i think the Ideal starting line up is :

Dragic
Bledsoe
Lebron
Frye
Plumlee

Agreed!

With Morris, Morris, Tucker, and Tucker off the bench.

Add in possible contribution from Archie, Len, and possibly some draft picks and ohhhhhhhhhh!

All we need is a TRUE superstar. Too bad I still don't see Bron Bron coming here. I'd bet he stays in Miami. No way he returns to the mess in Cleveland. NY? Another mess. If he joins the Lakers, I will **** in a papertowel and throw it at him during a game.

I'm sure he also has agents/managers advising him to stay in the weak eastern conference to inflate his stats and give him the best shot at more rings.

Miami ain't getting any younger. D-Wade is 32 and injury prone. Can't see him lasting another 4 years. Bosh will be 30. Can James and this aging crew keep winning in Miami? I'm not sure the Heat can even beat Indiana in the east this year. King James taking the ETO could get him a four-year contract for $90M+ and would be worth every penny.

Since pipe dreams are allowed in this thread I'd like

Bledsoe/Goodwin
Dragic/Green
Tucker/Morris
LeBron/Morris
Plumlee/Frye

Don't have the money for that $20 Million unless Frye opts out and we release him from his cap hold. Bledsoe would have to sign for a bit under max too.

A's over Royals. Lester and experience will prove that he's worth the trade.

Tigers winning it all. Tigers are, imo, peaking at the right time.

This tread is bump worthy just to prove how far this franchise has come in a year. If I had to bet I still think Bron will end up back in Miami but the fact we are at the table with him shows how far we've come on the last 12 months.

This off season might not work out but we should all appreciate the fact we have actual smart people running this team. Good times are ahead that's for sure.

If you look at any old thread, most people are going to look like idiots.

But the moves this season and possible extension of Bledsoe may mean just Lebron.

The suns definitely have to aim to try to get Lebron.

Offer the absolute biggest contract you can.
Offer a team that suits him... Having Bledsoe, Dragic helps.
Need to have good PF and Center though...

Hence why I think Len needs to be developed ASAP.


All the FO can do is have cap space and the most suitable team possible.. And an opportunity to contend.

If Suns can land a top notch rookie that Lebron thinks would be the next big thing... I see it as an incentive for him to mentor and team up with.

If Lebron doesn't come.. Then the suns still have a young team with huge upside this way.



Apart from the "getting stud rookie" which is what Cleveland got (potentially.)

I feel that McD had a similar vision as I did back then lol...

It's not like it's far fetch to wish for 2 stars ... But just need to have ambition and the assets which Suns and McD currently have. Kudos to Dr.Manute for the same vision and creating the thread!

Of course, but the denigration with which people treated the idea was ridiculous.

True. It says a lot about the current state of our franchise. Last year at this time things were bleak.

Has nothing todo with if he signs or not.
People's thoughts went from "yeah right"
To it may be possible
