I say yes.
SHAZAM!

Suns traded Mikal Bridges, Cam Johnson, Jae Crowder and 4 1st round picks and a swap so some Vegas Bookies would like us.

Love --22
James -- 25
Kyrie - 18
Tristan -16
Iman - 10

And they still want to use the Haywood contract for a player.

I have no idea who the Pick guy is but Ken Berger and Woj are most respected. Granted, I wouldn't be surprised if LMA goes to the Spurs

We can only hope for Phoenix though.

Shumpert $40M/ 4years ?? OMG, I know that he is young, good defender and all of that but come on!! With deals like that I'm getting more comfortable with Chandler's deal.

Well Philly still has to make league minimum in salary, and with their latest troubles with that, could we throw in that Cleveland pick we just got for them to take the twins? :o


If they don't meet the minimum salary, they just split the difference between the rest of the roster. I'm sure they'd love to get another pick though


Maybe some home town boys, and we also throw in the first Miami pick that is lotto protected, will get them to bite? Two more picks to take on decent contracts, while possibly bringing in more fans? I think they were 30th in attendance.

Not saying he is right, but the David Pick guy seems more legit than whoever that kid was in CLE last year talking about Lebron going back to CLE.

Could always trade up to like 11 mill in salary to CLE for Haywood's nonguaranteed 10 mill contract + a draft pick. Waive Haywood, boom, cap space.

the Suns could potentially offer more money than the non-Blazer teams in a sign-and-trade deal, and they also have a $5.5 million trade exception from the Goran Dragic trade. Yes, San Antonio is the favorite, but the Suns are interesting to say the least. They also have a slew of guards to offer in a trade.

How much would LMA cost now that Milsap got close to $20million? Would that $10 million contract do much?

Sign and trades under the new CBA are limited to 4 years so we can't offer more money than the other non-Blazer teams. We also can't stack that trade exception; can't combine it with players. Good thing though is that trade exception would make it really easy to add a cheap vet.

Aren't the Suns always listed as "interesting"? lol. That's what I think of the women before last call. I'll take them home for the night. Doesn't mean I'm going to call them back.

Yeah ... Dallas signs Amare and trades to us for exception.

Just can't stop dreaming about Aldridge Chandler front court. New lob city Bledsoe and Knight throwing lobs to Chandler and LMA.

I don't think we have the shooters for it, but there is always a chance if it was the latter of my choices.

This is what happens when you let your best player be your GM

Its still worth it to have him on your team. The amount of money Gilbert made this past season and will make in future revenue will be just stupid. I don't think he cares one bit.

If we seriously get Aldridge I"m sure we will do whatever it takes to reorganize the roster and add shooters while keeping our young guys

That's when you resign Gerald Green and you try to get another shooter.

The problem with green or any other rfa is the suns would need to clear cap space to just sign the offer sheet then golden state would just match and the suns would be left with nothing.

People don't really want amare right? It's just jokes where people forgot to use the green font I assume?

The Cavs's terrible management (Chris Grant as GM) basically lead them to 3 #1 picks( that somehow were not rigged). The first to draft Kyrie the second to waste on Bennett which set them up for a third to draft Wiggins to acquire Love and make LeBron the prodigal son feel guilty enough to return home. So yeah Gilbert probably had it all planned out to give him the reigns
