If KAT is 7ft, the LoBros definitely look at least 7-1, 7-2

KAT is 6-11 I think. The Lo bros are thick framed though.

Mortgage and rent/lease. It's not that hard when you have cash flow that's well managed by an accountant/manager. Also Lambos/Ferraris aren't that expensive especially when you have sponsorship $ and I'm sure dealers are happy to get an NBA star a great deal. A regular dude like me definitely ain't seeing a dime off that RRP if I walked into Ferrari today

Suns in: Nikola Vucevic, Terrance Ross and Shelvin Mack.

Magic in: 16th pick, Jarred Dudley and Brandon Knight.

The suns do this to get good solid vets in vooch and Ross to help push for the playoffs next year. Plus if they don’t work out you can trade them at the deadline or let them expire for cap space. Mack’s contract is only guaranteed for 1 million dollars next year so you can cut him if you don’t want him and save 5mil. You get productive proven vets who can help your young team grow.

The magic do this to try and get another young prospect to go with the 6th pick. They eat 2 of the suns bad contracts but they expire around the time they might start being competitive again.

Thoughts?

I have no interest in that trio. How about Augustin and Simmons for #16, Dudley, Ulis and two seconds? Maybe we add Chriss and Chandler for Vucevic?

How do they all fit in Booker's Lambo?

It’s just Booker and Jackson in the Lambo. Ulis is riding a skateboard and recording them while saying “I want to be just like y’all when i grow taller” and just showing Booker and Jackson in the Lambo.

I would do that deal and your other offer no problem as a magic fan. We have a lot of solid role players on our team who could be helpful to a up and coming team like you guys.

Always thought KAT was listed as 7'

Booker made 2.3 million this past year and made more than 2 million in each of the previous years. Even if it was all on a 40% tax rate, and it's not, he would have cleared around $4 million, which is enough to by a pretty expensive house and Lamborgini outright.

I think someone said he had a $3 or $4 million house and a Lambo is $200K

He probably financed some of the house at least...probably a good chunk of it. He makes over $3.3 next year. I'm sure he doesn't have problems getting a the cheapest interest rate possible for a mortgage loan....and of course he will start making over $25 million a year in the 19-20 season so all these costs will be a pretty small % of his annual salary.

Memphis- tj warren, 13th pick, suns 2019 top 3 protected pick

Suns- parsons, 4th pick

So, why exactly would the Clippers give up #13 for the right to move down 3 spots, pay Chandlers corpse and take on a 2nd round pick? They wouldnt.

People need to learn that in order to make this thing work (Obtaining the #4), its going to take real assets and a lot of them!

Suns will need to add an unprotected pick 2019 to trade into the top 5 for 2018....

Then you overpay by adding 2 more picks on top of the 2018 16 pick and maybe an asset.

Suns getting a late lottery pick in 2018 Then adding that with Pick 16 Then unprotected 2019 Pick would be alluring.

It's AMAZING how long this offseason has seemed already and it's not really even the offseason.

We've been talking A LOT about the draft for like 5 months and a lot about the top pick for like 3 weeks and there is still two and a half weeks left...just until the draft.

Then ten days until free agency, and then the moratorium....then probably waiting for LeBron to take his vacation he probably won't start until June 30th...which will likely hold up free agency...hopefully not again but who knows.

I remember last year it dragged on...while we discussed Millsap for like a week...then the FO came out and said they were staying young and targeting 2019....then Blake said he wants to talk so they decide to suddenly consider that for two weeks and half of the people are excited....then FINALLY they go back to their "stick to the plan" thing when Blake stays in LA (thankfully even though I know a lot of people wanted him).

So back to it....then well after free agency and trades seem over with, out comes the Kyrie news...which dragged on FOREVER. Seems like weeks...then trade goes down...they delayed another week or two....and of course another guy a lot of people wanted, but we stand firm.

And we are not even within two weeks of the draft yet...summer league should be fun and hopefully this offseason our free agency moves and/or trades are interesting but it's already going SO damn slow..

I'm probably just impatient though.
