Grant Hill wasn't asking for a $12 Mil per year contract

Cavs- love Green
Suns- wiggins, Martin, Bennett
Timberwolves- bledsoe, waiters, Morris, Morris

Cavs- get there guy and a 3pt shooter
Suns- get there " future star" have to take a bad contract then hope Bennett developed at a "PF"
Wolves- get 2 young players to help them win NOW. And get 2 brothers who had breakout years.

The Cavs NEED a team to take martins contract. I would take it as long as we get wiggins.

Make a push for Monroe

Dragic/ IT/ Ennis
Wiggins/ Goodwin/ Martin
Tucker/ warren
Monroe, Bennett
Plumlee/Len

I love the youth and potential of a roster like that.

Love this deal. Doesn't seem realistic for reasons I can't put my finger on. Maybe Minny doesn't get enough back?

What are you talking about? There was one tweet about him and the suns from some rando twitter account.

Ken Berger is not some "rando twitter account."

Deng is no Grant Hill, he is a good player but he doesnt make us a contender in the West so why use the cap space I would rather Warren gets those minutes and develops his game.

I am not sure Tucker and Deng are good fits - two small forwards; nobody to replace the 4 spot for Frye. Granted Markieff probably can. I am not concerned with replacing Frye's three point shooting if the team can improve its interior defense and rebounding. Even if just backing up Kieff. Deng brings the scoring.

asking and what you get are two different things. Hell, he could/should ask for a max, all you can say is no!

NOBODY makes us a contender in the West! So we do what, nothing? Or you sign some guys short term, while your young guys grow to decent contracts and try to make a splash.

Dragic and Bledsoe was great together. I think people fail to realize that, being so stuck on James, Mel, and Love!

Well he supposedly turned down 10 mil a year from Atl which is more than I would give him to begin with.

We are waiting for the Bulls to amnesty Boozer.

Bledsoe/Thomas/Ennis
Dragic/Green/Goodwin
Deng/Tucker/Warren
Boozer/Morris/Morris
Plumlee/Len

:lol:

How can you develop your young guys if they are sitting on the Bench! thats my point you sign Deng he takes minutes away from the young guys.

This is a solid point. Only issue I have is, the youth won't get much time at all. I expect them to be in the D-League a lot. Warren for sure.

If we didn't have PJ, TJ, Green, Mook logjam at SF; a need for a starting quality PF; and Deng accepted a veterans minimum salary, I would be all in favor of the Suns signing him.

Can only one offer sheet be signed per RFA per year?

Can this can defend the four and rebound? If the Suns sign Deng - really either need a low post scorer or a guy who can board/rebound.
