Goran Dragic Trade Watch

[Charlie Smithy!]

Any chance we waive granger, thornton or Salmons?

Our crowd will certainly be doing the wa(i)ve more often now.

[INFORMER]

So Knight doesn't like playing the off-guard...I felt like we already went through this??

According to whom?

Question for the masses, assuming Knight and Bledsoe stay together (as well as healthy), is that a backcourt that can take us anywhere?

It's to early to tell how they'll play together but it can, just depends what they put around them I think. They still need more up front and it depends how Len devolpes.

Also I'm curious to those who know about Knight what they think he is worth on the market this off-season.

BTW, I think Ryan got exactly what he wanted from IT. Basically signing him this off-season got him an extra first rd pick. He'll get the cap space back this off-season once thorton expires, its just he didn't anticipate the negative effect it would have on Dragic.

You would think anyone on an expiring deal that we don't intend to re-sign would be waived if only to open up PT for the young guys.

I think Salmons might get waived. Granger will ride the bench. Thornton may be in the rotation.

I wouldn't be surprised if all 3 are gone.

Gambo.

Gambo just said it, but I tend to agree more with INF, he's more of a combo guard and he's big enough to play the 2. I dunno what his preference is, but he has played plenty of 2 before.

Sure, if we can get a PF who can rebound and Len develops into a 15/11 C.

Bickley and Marotta doing damage control right now.

Extra first round pick? The Suns sent out the Laker pick and the one they ended up with will undoubtedly be worse.

If Ryan signed Thomas just to land a late first rounder, then this regime is taking the Suns anywhere.

[In2ition]

Knight is much better than a backup IMO.

That isn't opinion. Calling Knight a backup is just silly.

Like I said, I haven't seen enough of him in a few years. I wasn't impressed at the time. I defer to all of you.

[Charlie Smithy!]

For some reason, I just imagined Lon Babby singing "the wheels on the bus" on the team bus just now...

... Shiver me timbers!

We're really thin up front.

Well hopefully this will motivate Ryan to deal Bledsoe on draft night. Get over it Ryan.

it's the motion of the ocean not the size of the boat...

All we need are the Morris Twins. FOE.

They got a 1st rd pick for thomas. They pick they sent out was to get knight. They could of done 1 move without the other. Weren't you all for the thomas signing when it happened? Saying it was a great value....and this is what Mcdonaugh had in mind, they could get value for thomas if it did not work out....and it didn't.

In the scheme of things they actually picked up 2 extra picks. I'm no board with you that I hate sneding away the lakers pick, I don't like it at all...but lets not ignore facts. IT was dealt for a 1st was he not?
