You a Knight fan then? Tyreke has been better than Knight pretty much every year in the league. Better passer, ast/to ratio, rebounding, bigger. If he's healthy he is better. Much rather have than Barnes.

I find Knights game off-putting but do believe if he embraces being a gunner 6th man he'd have value. Just really don't like Evans game so don't want him. Two wrongs don't make a right :)
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming Wow! What a Ride!-H.S.T.

Boston and the exploration Middleton, really not much to explore. Better 3 point shot than Butler and locked into a 5yr/70million contract. C's figure they can get for less him for less assets than Butler.

If I were the C's I'd go after Middleton before Butler if it meant giving up less assets. Much better contract, younger, and doesn't need the ball in his hands as much. He's not the star they're after, but he's a good player and I'm not sure the Bucks should give him up.

We, on the other hand, have stars like Brandon Knight that every team can't stop drooling over

On their forum they say Ainge considers Jae and IT untouchable. Kind of surprised they wouldn't give up one of them along with 3 for Butler.

Having Watson stay on after he was interim coach with Hornacek’s firing is being viewed as merely a temporary move.

Until Steve Nash comes back to run the team.

Apparently, that’s owner Robert Sarver’s master plan. Sources tell Forbes.com that the Suns are looking to bring in Nash, their former two-time MVP, to take over as the team’s top basketball executive sometime in the next year.

Before giving Watson the job, the Suns wanted Villanova’s Jay Wright, fresh off his NCAA title. But he was wise to stay put.

GM Ryan McDonough wants to control the coach and Watson, in his first head coaching job, will carry out orders.

“Can you say uninspired?’’ one scout said. “They just didn’t want to spend money.’’

Not sure I believe that forbes.com or Mitch Lawrence have any idea what the Suns are doing.. Unless they mean 3 years is temporary?

everyone in the locker room wanted Watson. so, yes, it was inspired by......you know, chemistry.
