Great glue guy, a real fan favorite, but expendable in my book.

Great guy, good hustle, gives his best every game. Spark off the bench.

If a great opportunity came the way would you trade Jared Dudley?

Everyone on the roster is trade-able, it's just Dudley is so productive relative his pay that the Suns would actually need something significant to move him. I just don't think his value around the league is that high.

This. JMZ's on a very team-friendly contract, he's popular with the fans, and seems to be a great teammate. Maybe his game starts falling off now that he no longer has his nutritionist (Steve Nash) with him during the season, but unless that happens, he's a keeper. Not that he's untradeable or anything, it's just hard to imagine anyone offering anything better in return. Dudley will never be more than just a role player at one of the easiest spots to fill (non-ballhandling wing), but productive, team-oriented, low-ego starter-quality players who make less than the league average aren't super easy to find. I'd rather have Dudley than a lotto-protected first-round pick, for example.

He has a good personality and sense of humor, he's in good shape, tall, wealthy, and pretty eyes.

He was untouchable to me before Nash left. With a full rebuild on now, I wouldn't mind losing him for the right guy.

I would say he is available for a big that can can put up 10 ppg, and rebound at a high clip.

Hes a high character guy that this team needs especially in rebuilding. He gives it his all and to me is a solid bench guy (7 or 8th guy on a team) that can hit open J's and play D. Smart and I like him.

And can defend, but I really doubt Dudley can get that.

Jared Dudley is untouchable and is our 'Lebron James" on this team. But if there was a trade, Suns would take Paul, Griffin, Odom and 1st rounder... Anything less and Suns FO will laugh.

Dudley gives more than you can get back for him because most of what he brings is off the court. He is definitely not the centerpiece of a trade but I could see him as a throw in even though i'd be against it.

By far my favorite player. Real likable guy and a great role player. Doesn't have the super speed and vertical that other players have but he still produces.

I can't wait to watch Dudley next season. Maybe he will get a career high dunks in one season? I'm guessing 11.

Whats with the Dudly appreciation thread??? Is this in reguards to some other teams fan asking because of some trade offer, or did we spontaniously break into an I love dudly THIS MUCH thread???

Dudley is young, healthy and worth more to the team than his contract or trade value.

I vote we keep him.
