I like Russ Smith, but he is not needed here because we have Bledsoe, Ulis and James.

If we waive James I would love lo get him as a third PG string.

We need a great shooter to backup Booker.
Reed was perfect for that spot, probably someone like Jok or RJ Hunter can fill that spot until he returns. No need for big changes.

I was so damn hyped to see what Reed was capable of but man now he's gonna miss half the season and by then we'll have to ease him in to the rotation and then he's gotta find his groove and all that jazz

Yup, this is just typical Phoenix Suns luck

As long as this takes effect for 2019 and not 2018, I could care less.

One more bad season, one more bad pick, then it's time to start pushing for the playoffs again.

Hell, I'd sacrifice our 2019 pick just to pick top 3 in the LOADED 2018 draft. We grab a center to pair with Booker and Jackson and we're off.

Who does the Suns trade? and does it beat other team's offers?
I can see Celtics dangling Brown, Tatum and a pick...

I dont see the Suns giving up too much, because the point of going for Davis is to field a better team than the Pelicans.

I see Chriss, Bender and Pick(s).... maybe Warren (re-signed)... but nothing more. Suns then sign role players that fit. Especially backups for Booker, Bledsoe etc.

Uh, that's less than the rumor for Irving.

Why do you have so many pictures of trashcans?

Ugh I happily forgot the Suns gave Mike James a contract. Thanks for the reminder.

In case anyone cares - Markieff Moris is a father now.

I'm honestly shocked that Marcus didn't immediately go impregnate someone when that happened.

Picks, as in 2018, 2020 Suns picks and both Heat picks.

Saw an idea on the Trade Board that i kinda like.

Kanter/Singler/Ferguson

for

Chandler/Dudley

I'd roll the dice on Kanter. Its not really costing us that much at all and we also get a chance to roll the dice on Ferg (We could use another 6'7 SG!).

**EDIT**

Looks like others think we need more value (Including a OKC fan), so the trade idea is now:

Kanter/Ferg/1st for Chandler/Dudley

I like that trade a hell of a lot more now! I would do it without even giving it a 2nd thought. That would be like trading Chandler for Kanter for 2 seasons and turning Dudley into 2 late 1sts.

Surely there's an expiring vet SG out there that can be had for Chandler.

Bledsoe, Ulis
Booker, (trade)
Warren, Jackson
Chriss, Bender
Len, Williams
