I would love LeBron James in a deal. I'd even be willing to give them Brandon Knight in the deal. We keep Booker and Jackson though.

I don't think the Suns have to trade for him either. It would be nice to get him on the cheap but that's the only reason we would be interested. I think we're fine moving on if we have to give up more than we want at this point.

yep no need to trade for him, can just continue on the course you are on and hope that the Core develops into a winner.
If I was a Suns fan there are only 10 players I would trade Booker or Jackson for and KI is one of them.
Cavs are not going to trade him if they don't "get better" for trading him, so if teams just want to get him for nothing he will remain in Cleveland turmoil or not.

I don't think any team trades a superstar and "gets better" but it could happen

Done.


That to me is way too much young talent. Reed, Warren and the Heat Pick. At most they get two of three.
And I still prefer Chriss to Warren.

Bledsoe, Chriss (or Warren) and Heat pick or Reed

Cleveland fan says, "If I were Phoenix, I'd trade Jackson or Booker for Kyrie"

Cleveland fan means, "I hope Phoenix is dumb enough to give us Jackson or Booker and more for Kyrie"

I know you are not that dumb,you just don't want kyrie.

Thats Shannon Sharpe's though process too. Every single time the suns are brought up he screeches about getting bledsoe and booker. Wish I got paid to scream stupid ideas.

Neither teams want to get swindled in any trade but time is on our side. We don't need to trade for Kyrie but it appears Cleveland is beyond the point of no return with Kyrie and they need to move him. If they can get a better offer than Bledsoe, Warren, Miami/Chriss then more power to them.

I think this is realistic. Ppl who think we're getting him for peanuts aren't aware of Gilbert's stubbornness. I'd want to keep Warren but if it means keeping our pick I'd include him in the deal and hope one of Bender/Chriss makes a sophomore leap.

Haha, I just found my first lowball trade rumor from a legit source. By legit I don't mean there's validity behind it, I just mean it wasn't made from a 12 year old.

Suns Get:
Kyrie Irving, Iman Shumpert

Cleveland Get:
Eric Bledsoe, Jared Dudley

First off, in no way do I think Kyrie's market value has dropped this far, but perception could be waning a bit.

Poor Cavs need a gag order on these two until they can get this thing figured out. Otherwise they'll be forced to trade him for a heavily protected 3rd round draft pick and poorly written "I.O.U." on yellow post it. ...kind of sad actually!

Yeah, lets put the picture with Lebron in to context for those not willing to look further into it.

It was the 2nd picture ever posted to Reed's instagram account, YEARS ago when he went to the Lebron Skills Camp with likt a hundred other hs players. I think Lebron is obliged to take a picture with every camp member, just like the picture with 1000-Yard-Stare Warren.

Welp, it's almost August 4th and Josh Jackson has NOT been traded. *breaks out the imaginary bottle of champagne*
