i doubt they would've done that anyway

Yeah? What are they doing with Bledsoe? Not clear to me how he fits with their plans, and I definitely don't get why they just guaranteed Jennings.

Also Booker was really upset the Suns released him. I like the idea of adding stars best friends to the roster, just in case. Booker’s a RFA in 2019

adding bffs never works lol

also ullis wasn't even good enough for the suns


ALSO the Suns would just match any offer

Suns released Ullis. He's an UFA. Booker is unhappy.
My picks:
2020 Draft (3rd pick) - Tyrese Haliburton, Devin Vassell, or Onyeka Okongwu
2021 Draft (11th pick) - Moses Moody

Minnesota resigned Rose to backup Teague. Wonder what it would take to get Tyus Jones

I would not be surprised if Teague was the one on the chopping block

Why do NO need him tho? They have Jrue, Rondo. Neither of the 3 can play meaningful minutes together. A Curry-Klay pair would piss themselves in laughter if a Rajon-Elf pair would run the show for NO.

Elf is a hometown guy and I think the plan is to start Rondo with Holiday.

Its all good, okay. But why on earth do they need essentially two PGs who are cut from the same mould. Its a dick thing to say that Elf is a watered down Rondo, but quite accurate. On
Only one scenario comes to my mind: they like what they get from Rondo, and exploring whether they can get roughly the same from someone else, who is younger and cheaper. Be my guest, it was cheap, it is short, so I dont have problem with the contract, only the signing.

Sound like we have a meeting with Tyreke Evans, per RB. Don't know if he'll be happy here just getting backup minutes to Kemba. I think it's possible if we get him, then Kemba may be dealt at the deadline.
Who I woulda took:
2023: Miller | 2022: Duren | 2021: Bouknight, Jones | 2020: Ball | 2019: PJ | 2018: MPJ | 2017: Monk | 2016: Damian Jones | 2015: Winslow | 2014: Vonleh, Napier | 2013: McLemore | 2012: MKG | 2011: Knight, Kawhi

If we sign Tyreke we could compete with the Bucks, Pacers, and Raptors for a top 5 seed. He would be a huge plus for this team, but he's also meeting with the Lakers and Thunder so it's hard to feel good about our chances. The fact that he's meeting with us at all is a good sign though. We aren't a glamour team, but we're not NBA Siberia either.

I don't think we can convince him to take the MLE, but if we can he would be the starting 2 and my guess is we would stagger him and/or Batum with the backups and play Monk at "PG" with Lamb as a super sub again. Unless of course something else happens.

Is Seth our "secret signing" shooter and ballhandler? Teams have to be running out of money!

These contracts being given out so far make me think we do have a shot at Bradley. Evans is probably an outside shot. I'm still sticking with Napier though but if I could have any choice and knowing the guy would sign, I'd go for Evans.

Curry is gone. Signed with the Blazers. I hope we have Shabazz on speed dial if Evans falls through.

Forgot about Bradley. I’d be fine with him too.

Less than 3 million.

Yup, we're getting Tyreke or Bradley.
