I could maybe see Miami trying for Deng. He fits a need on their team. If I was Miami, I would offer Bosh a 5 year max contract and then go for Deng to replace Lebron. That's still a decent team (in the east).

For everyone that is down on Deng.....I didn't know you guys were his agents negotiating his 12 mil per. Lets fire the Suns mgt, because they are dumb. I wish they knew as much as some of you guys.

You are over rating Deng's impact, Chicago losing him didnt affect their team at all and Cleveland getting him didnt help them at all he is an overrated player imo.


It ended up not affecting them because of the completely unexpected rise of Taj Gibson, and the quality of defense played by the entire team in general.


And he didnt help Cleveland because they didnt use him right, excuses. He is a good player but he is not worth what someone is going to pay him and he doesnt change anything for the Suns so why pay someone that gets you 3-4 more wins 12 million+ thats what bad organizations do. They stay mediocre with those types of signings.


What about a front-loaded contract that could take advantage of our immediate cap space and reduce long-term concerns?

He doesnt change the outlook for this team and for what someone is going to pay him, no!



So he isn't a solid player? Answer my question!


He is a solid NBA, not on the Suns though, doesnt fit, cant shoot, Tucker is a better fit on a contract that is going to be 1/2 of what Deng gets and Deng has regressed the last few years he isnt going to get better.

as a Lin fan, gonna be weird not to hate on a guy in a Laker jersey... I seem to recall trying to do this w/ a Laker PG a cpl years ago and it not working out for me, but I dunno..

I am glad he will get a chance to show what he's got outside that stupid, stupid Houston 'team.'

and I am hopeful he will win enouhg games to get LA to that sweet 6-spot in the lotto

Thank you. Maybe he would or wouldn't fit, but with the right contract, it'd be worth a try. PJ could be a back-up and Warren is a rookie.

Not if Gasol goes to OKC.

Don't forget the Rockets got drove by Ptown in the first round. You think Bosh makes them a title contender alone? :nonono:


I think if Gasol goes to OKC - they have to be the favorites.

San Antonio

Clippers
Rockets
Memphis

Probably in that order for me
