Relieve Wall/Beal tension, perimeter/interior balance, dump Mahinmi

PHO Out: Anderson
PHO In: Jackson
Move bad deal and take a gamble at a position of need

I posted this on the trade board and so far everyone thinks it's good for the Suns but Washington says no.


I say no, too. Though I wouldn't mind trading RJ.

Nobody in his right mind would oppose trading RJ. But no general manager in his right mind would trade for RJ.

Yea, Bruce Brown made some nice contributions, looks like he could be a useful player into the future, was happy to see Galloway planted on the bench. I still don't know what happened to Khyri Thomas their first pick in the second round who they traded two future picks for.

I bet Phoenix could use RJ. They have like no PG.

There are no such people on this roster. That is one of its biggest problems. It is not a solvable problem. At least not this season. Blake will need to bang down low every game. That will be harsh on his health.

We got to keep giving Bruce Brown minutes. He's got the mentality. He might already be our best defender.


In one sentence you rightly say Griffin should have shooters with him, then suggest minutes go to a rookie who shoots as well as Drummond.


Never said we should start Bruce or play him with Blake, bench minutes are enough for now. He's a player who's shot will come on, anyway.

Yeah we need to add shooters, but we've got enough if guys like Reggie J and G Rob play to their potential and Kennard is fit and available.
