I think there is a higher chance that McDonough uses our assets to trade up in this draft then to go after a big time player especially with GSW holding steady and 1 or 2 more superteams being formed.

We're gonna obtain players that fit the timeline.

I wouldn't be shocked to see us:
-Take Ayton @1
-Combine #16, the bucks pick the Miami pick, and Chriss to move up.
-Max either Gordon or Lavine depending on if we draft another PG or PF

Example:

Knight/TraeYoung/Ulis
Booker/Daniels
JJ/TJ
A. Gordon/Bender
Ayton

Dallas could be the target. #16, two future picks, and Chriss for #5? I'd love to paid Ayton with JJ/Bagley/Doncic/Trae and I think that is definitely possible.

LEBRON :o


Straight truth. The players know exactly what they are gonna do. Dumb JR already told everyone that Lebron was going to LAL. He and Paul George are already teaming up. Like it has been mentioned, I don't think James cares all that much about winning and its about his kids and quality of life. There is no place better in America to be filthy rich than LA.


George and James to LA makes them pretty formidable I would say

still think if James wants to win - go to Houston or George but hey, not a bad combo

Honestly I think I prefer Bron going to LAL than to Houston. It would be crazy to have so many of the best players packed in 2 teams. If there has to be superteams at least let's have few of them. How boring it would be to have dominant Warriors team and maybe even more dominant Rockets team?

Still expect him to go to LA, especially if Bron does, but...

lol MadBum part 2.

"The Grade 2 designation means Bumgarner has a partial tear in his shoulder. Giants manager Bruce Bochy said the four-time All-Star, who hurt himself in a dirt-bike accident during a scheduled off-day outside of Denver on April 20, began his rehabilitation procedure Friday with team physical therapist Tony Reale."

Aldridge mentioned he thought PG13 would be an excellent fit in Phoenix

Not that he was saying he was going to Phoenix of course

I think he would do well on the Spurs actually -

Would be kinda cool if they both came to Phoenix without the Suns having to give up Booker, Jackson or Ayton. Sign FVV in the off season.

FVV
Booker
George
Aldridge
Ayton

With Jackson off the bench.

Obviously unrealistic though.

Sorry for the confusion :)

Yes, David said in his Monday article that PG13 would be a good fit with the young core of Phoenix. Aldridge also suggested the Phoenix take a look at Marcus Smart - saying something like "the Suns need their cap person to get creative for Smart to make an offer Boston has to refuse."

I know Smart cannot shoot that well but his defense, toughness would be a nice fit next to Booker . Granted, another non-shooter - ugh! But guys like Smart just make plays - was so impressed with him in the Cavs/Celtics series.

The dude is an absolute monster offensively.

If we start Josh Jackson this year TJ warren is without a doubt the 6th man of the year.

You don't trade a super efficient 20 ppg scorer and potential 6th man of the year....

Please.

Same thing happened last year....people always including tj warren in trades...

Why does he get slept on so much?

Theres no way whoever we trade tj warren for will replace his 20 ppg


Not only that but we are including multiple picks and bender/chriss?

Are we just trying to get worse with these trades?



Dude, Warren sucks ass.
All he does is score, he is a black hole offensively, dude is allergic to passing the ball. Don’t get me started on his 3pt shooting.


You don't know basketball never talk to me again...


Nah your right bro, he scores 20 a game so he must be a good player :lol:
