Exactly. I'm fine with them going for BPA at #4 and seeing the team continue to develop and progress, watching guys like Booker, Chriss, Bender and Tatum/Fox improving.

How about this deal. #4 and TJ Warren to Sac for #5 and #10? Suns probably still get Tatum and have lots of nice options at #10

I really do not get all this nonsense in regards to LMA and KP

Our tanking has put us in a very good position. Why throw it all down the drain on KP or LMA. Something is just not right about the KP availability. I certainly like his game like virtually everyone else on the planet. I still do not want to blow up this roster for him. I have high hopes for both Bender and Chriss. I would love to add Jackson, Tatum, Issac or Fox to this roster.

I really like our core. Please stay the course and add to it.

1. Draft the best player available at 4. I don't care if it is Jackson, Tatum, Issac or Fox.
2. Trade Bledsoe if we somehow get a PG to replace him, like drafting Fox.
3. Sign a legit free agent in the off season without depleting the roster in a sign and trade.

This is a future I can believe in. It does not seem that complicated.

I think that is a terrible deal for Sacramento. Not sure why people think Sacramento will be super eager to just throw away draft picks.

Listening to that radio show, I missed part of it but it almost sounded like they think we'd take Fox if Jackson isn't there.

What would piss me off the most is if we took Fox. I would buy a plane ticket to Vegas summer league just to punch McD/Sarver in the face. I wouldn't even watch the games.

If we manage to fleece SAC for 5 and 10, I feel like the Suns would draft Zach Collins.

How exactly is that throwing away picks? Who would you pick at 10 that's better then Warren? He fills a need for them and they get their guy in Fox?

Yes because Phil Jackson thinks KP is worth a ton. Lakers barely got anything of value for Russell. I know he isn't the same caliber of player KP is, but I thought Russell was worth more than a salary dump.

Alright guys taking a power nap before the draft! Nothing better happen while I'm asleep.

Warren has very little actual value. If the Suns put him on the trade block they'd be lucky to get a late 1st rounder back for him. He's a decent player, probably a pretty nice bench player on a contender, a guy who can come in and score some buckets for you but nothing more. Not a great defender, lacks an outside shot, he's very limited in today's NBA game.

The Kings could get similar players from other teams for far less compensation.

If we were talking about the Suns and they had the #5 and #10 picks in the draft and some other team's fan proposed trading those picks for the #4 pick and a marginal role player, you know you'd ridicule them for it.

Be careful what you wish for. If Tatum and Chriss become studs and KP is riddled with back injuries, you'll rue the day we traded for KP. I believe our luck is changing, starting with Booker, and now Ulis Chris and maybe Bender. The tides change, don't forget, I am a Cubs fan.

I believe what ever happens is happening in benefit to the Suns. So be happy how we end up today, because it was meant to be.

You didn't like what Fox and Monk looked like during the tourney?

Now make that Fox and Booker.....outside of Jackson, Fox has more two-way potential than Isaac and Tatum. Why would you be upset at that?
