No thanks. That starting 5 would be absolutely horrible on defense. Not one good defender is in that starting line up. Really you think that would work? Why cant we focus on defense just a little?


We're the Suns- not the Spurs. When have we ever been about the defense? Why change a good thing?

Yeah, I posted his side by side stats against Bledsoe's the other day. Pretty surprising. Obviously he's not even in the same league with Bledsoe defensively, but offensively he's more efficient....has a higher PER if you find that meaningful.

I hope it's Bledsoe/Plumlee for Wiggins :D
Then I don't mind taking Isiah Thomas.

This makes the most sense, but I think it would need to be Bledsoe because we can't start Thomas and Bledsoe (too small).

Yeah, I agree. Bledsoe is most likely headed out in that scenario.

There is no way the Suns will have Thomas and Eric Bledsoe on the team. That would not make sense. You cannot start them together because it would be the smallest backcourt of all time. Does Thomas want to be a backup? I doubt it. The Suns are so loaded at guard with Dragic, Green, Goodwin, Ennis, and most likely a re-signed Bledsoe. They should be looking to upgrade the small forward and power forward spots. That is where the team is lacking. Why are they looking at Thomas?

I can not believe we would sign isaiah thomas and trade eric bledsoe :(


Watch isaiah thomas highlights

He shoots off balance shots, he's a chucker, he's a me first shooter,

I dislike his game immensely we don't need a microwave off the bench at the expense of bledsoe


Keep bledsoe pass on thomas yuck

This only makes sense if we're making a trade for big man like Kevin Love

Lol Minnesota is not trading love yet.
In case lebron does pick Cleveland then the S&T rumors for wiggins and love start.
They wouldn't premature trade him away now.

If suns give Thomas a deal they have to be confident kings don't match if the plan is Bledsoe is out.
Bledsoe May not wait 3 days as the market dries up day by day.

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.

Well, Sac does have a bunch of power forwards. It's just that none of them are all that good. And Landry and Thompson's deals are pretty long. The only way we would trade him in a double S&T with Sac is if we got Stauskas and probably another pick as well too.

That team would have to get 130+ points every game. Because that is what other teams would score against that defence.

Do anybody seriously think Suns can get Wiggins? :noway:

Dwyane Wade

Anyone know what his physical problems really are?

He is still only 32 and our doctors have been magicians with guys that age. Maybe they could make him relevant again. When he was right he was fantastic. He would sell lots of tickets and if right could help us win a lot of games.

I just would like to see what the great Pat Riley would do if all three of his guys left town this off season.

In Pat's tour of duty in LA he had quite possibly the most loaded roster in the history of the NBA, he won some championships, most any coach would have done that.

In New York he had loaded rosters but didn't win crap.

He won another ring as a coach when he threw Van Gundy under the bus and took control. They were lucky to do it as Dallas folded like a cheap suit.

In the last four years he is a genius because quite possibly the best player in the history of the league happened to play for his team, give me a break.

I just want to see him with penis in his hand after this all implodes around him.

Obviously, not a fan

Saying that they will probably all stay in Miami

Everyone should be thrilled with this. Only 3 years and probably under market value. I'm stoked about this!
