Re: Suns News: The Offseason

We offered Len the QO and are waiting to hear back? That's it? We haven't even offered a multi-year deal? Come on. For all of Len's flaws, I'd definitely offer him more than 4.2/1. Opening with nothing more than the QO is an insult. I kind of agree. Williams gets more $ that after playing half the ...

Re: Brandon Knight Torn ACL - Entire 2017-2018 Season in Jeopardy

Depending on what happens this summer with Bled/Kyrie I think we'll make a play for Lebron/PG-13/Cousins next year There is absolutely no way that will happen. You don't think we'll try to sign one of those guys? Chances of LeBron or George signing are almost zero, but Cousins is a possibility. I t...

Re: Kyrie Irving Trade Countdown

The great thing about this possible deal is that the intangibles are skewed in our favor in certain ways. - Their star is at a lowish point of his value, coming off having lost in the Finals and having asked for a trade - Our guy (Bledsoe) is at a high point of his value, coming off a healthy seaso...

Re: Kyrie Irving Trade Countdown

I'm officially off the Kyrie fence. The more I think about fit, the more I think he's just not the right guy for us. Obvs, I would do it for stupidly cheap. Is he a great scorer? Yes. But he isn't great at anything else. In fact, he isn't even above average at anything else. And how does a shoot fir...

Re: Kyrie Irving Trade Countdown

Tom Haberstroh replied on ESPN that he thinks the Suns can get Kyrie for Bledsoe and Dudley, without giving up Jackson or picks. Personally, I think it will take Bledsoe, Warren and possibly Dudley, and it would be a good deal for Kyrie. Sending Duds would mean bringing back another contract. Shump...

Re: Brandon Knight Torn ACL - Entire 2017-2018 Season in Jeopardy

As the roster stands now, DJJ will be buried pretty deep this year behind Jackson/Warren and Booker /Reed. Book is going to play a ton of minutes, and Reed showed in summer league that he is a legit player. He'll get the 12 or 14 minutes behind Booker. DJJ only plays if there is an injury or a trade.

Re: Kyrie Irving Trade Countdown

Does Knight's injury affect any potential deals involving Bleds? Even if we get Frank back, he's probably not ready to see any significant minutes which leaves us with just Ulis. I'm not sure Knight would've been on the team or would've even played had Bledsoe been traded, but at least we had that ...

Re: Kyrie Irving Trade Countdown

https://twitter.com/Gambo987/status/889955685873598465 I'm glad for this. I recognize that Kyrie is a legit star, and that Jackson is an unproven rookie, but I guess all these years of rooting against Kyrie and the Cavs has affected me. I just don't want Kyrie, even though I think he's a stud. I wa...

Re: Kyrie Irving Trade Countdown

ESPN says Suns would trade Eric Bledsoe and 2017 first-round draft pick Josh but this earth flat thing haunts me A 2 dimensional plane only has 2 surfaces - the top and bottom. A "sphere" only has 2 surfaces - the inside and the outside. "Sphere" theory has never been proven. So...

Re: Kyrie Irving Trade Countdown

Not at all interested in Kyrie. His numbers are inflated playing next to lebron. If we give up any of our young core, it is a major step back. Agreed I'm not a huge fan of Kyrie, but his number are very similar to what they were as a rookie with no Lebron. If Lebron has affected his numbers, it's t...

Re: Brandon Knight Torn ACL - Entire 2017-2018 Season in Jeopardy

Clarity for Knight, too. Now he has a good long time to realize that his NBA career is just about over. If he wants to play again, he has to start from the bottom and work his way back onto a roster.

Re: Kyrie Irving Trade Countdown

It's funny because when I think about it, Brandon Knight kinda reminds me of a poo man's Kyrie. Yep, Kyrie is what Knight would like to be That's the alure of Knight. HE plays like a Kyrie or a Curry, except he doesn't make his shots and his passes are off. He can actually be a better defender than...

Re: Around the League: The Offseason

James will be 34 when he starts his next contract. I wonder how good he will be, or how much influence he will have in the league. I mean, this off season he is still one of the best in the game, but age is going to catch up with him sometime. I wonder if he aims for a 5 year max, or if he keeps on ...
