And the cap would have to increase to 100 million overnight.

Suns starting lineup was

Bledsoe
Danny Green
MELO...
Millsap
Len

And bench
BWright
David West
Granger
GGreen
Calderon
Warren

So yeah...by my calculations we had two big signings and a monster trade. Morri, Bullock, Goodwin, Tucker, Thornton and #13 gone...

Must have been a wet dream :wink:

I'd love West as he would be the perfect role model vet to help the young guys, but Indiana is in the same boat we are and most small market teams, particularly them, are opposed to a complete rebuild, especially with a star in place.

Not a fan of Melo, but again, Phil Jackson is not at a time in his career and Dolan wouldn't want to go through a rebuild either (even though they should) and they want to build around him too. Unfortunately they have few assets other than that pick who many think/dream we can get.

I think this draft is 12-13 deep with quality players, so lets hope one of the players that can help us, either tomorrow or two years from now is available.

Would love to get Millsap though. He is the most realistic target of those guys imo, though I am a bit hesitant he would leave a 60 win team for us. You never know though.

Babby.... ' Here son, this is just enough rope ....'
McDuh....' Thanks, um... what do I do with it?'
Babby ... ' You'll see soon enough, lets hope you don't have to use it'


I see this as an effective maneuver to insulate the Babbler from any failed rebuild. Long term, a couple more non playoff yrs, then somebody has to go.

All we need Babby for is contract ****. He has not shown to be smart in personnel moves. His role lessened because he is a numbers and legal guy.

Plus he probably told Mc D to take the Morri out back and shoot em, and it wasn't recieved too well.
