So you think Oubre is such a negative value that the Suns need attach the 10th pick in order to move him for a player who averages 9/2/2 on god awful efficiency and a vet on a non-guaranteed deal (which becomes guaranteed after a trade btw)?Stillwater wrote:jredsaz wrote:I don't see that as a good choice. 10th pick has 4 controllable years on a rookie scale deal and RFA. Plus I get to choose a player that fits my team/system and develop him from the get. Why am I sacrificing that for a project with less control?Stillwater wrote:you cant figure it out cant help you... in simpleton terms it means you take a 2nd or 3rd year player for your 10th
Who are some players you put into this category?

thats understandable probably even moreso than trading Oubre in the first place which I didnt really get the point of,unless the Suns dont see him in their long term plans at which point I have to assume the OP was suggesting by making this proposal.
The contract is only Gauranteed through 20-21 so you will either have to try to move him with the 10th on draft day to say Portland? for SImons and take Ariza and his partial G of 1.8 mil then just waive him before it gets locked in and you have acquired a good guard prospect stuck behind two highly paid guards through 23-24 season.
Or the Suns can do the same thing for somebody else like that if there are any.
The only other options are just taking a bpa wing instead of a guard and dumping Oubre's expiring at the deadline next season if his agent is pushing a deal more than the Suns are willing to pay. The only other play is to let him test the FA market and underpay him when he sees its dried up.
That's just poor player and asset valuation.
