Truth is..pg is not where we need to upgrade. Dragic is a very good player..great charcter and great contract.

Yes kyrie is a bigger talent..but conidering personalties, health, style, and trading cost - i doubt it will be worth it.

What we really need is a star wing, someone like paul gorge. Hopfully winslow can grow into it in the next couple of years. Or we could trade for someone.

I agree a star wing is what would elevate our team to the next level and the only way I could see us getting one is free agency. The problem with our team is none of our players hold strong relationships with guys like that. Kyrie has plenty relationships with the top nba players from team USA and all star games that's one of the biggest reasons why its good to have him on the team.

I feel like he wants Jackson there so when he bolts next season he can be like "you guys got JJ now you don't need me"

I heard that Suns don't want to give up their assets like Jackson or Booker for a 2 year rental of Kyrie Irving. And I can see why too makes sense.

The longer this drags out the more I believe we have a legitimate shot at trading for Kyrie.

I already said we're the most realistic destination. I'm not buying these other spots because no one is going to want to give up their young assets for Kyrie.

The other thing is where are the sources for the actual trades being proposed? We get a **** of hypotheticals from talking heads, and now rumours of Bron doing back door questioning, but no actual "Suns FO are willing to offer ..." type of news. Are the Suns even interested?

Do they even want to pay a steep price for someone who has named 4 teams, and probably has his agent running around saying he won't sign an extension anywhere but those 4.

Look at what previous stars have done to deflate their trade value, or attempt to end up at their desired destination. Boogie laid the groundwork for these guys & their agents, and the rest are following. Teams are seeing the writing on the wall, and more are moving towards the "if they don't sign an extension, trade them to get value" way of dealing with a stars FA.

Cavs need to sort this out asap, and need it resolved before training camp starts. We need to just stay a viable option and then swoop in when the time is right!

So have we traded all our assets for a undersized sg, that doesn't play defense yet?

Very bad joke. :nonono:

Dion had one of the best defensive rating as a sg last year. While Irving had one of the worst.

For those wondering when Training Camp etc starts, it's later than I thought as I forgot about the must shorter pre-season.

Media Day is September 25 with Training Camp beginning September 26. Worst.

Spoball.
Dion had a worse D-rating than Kyrie last year. If Dion could go from worse than Kyrie to top of league this year, Why cant Kyrie?

No thats not true. Dion had one of the best defensive rating of all guards last year. Even Pat was mentioning that recently.

I meant the year before. In my mind I was considering the most recent season as this season and 2015-2016 as last year.
