Yeah, Ayton seems highly intelligent and capable of learning and improving. I don't think we have to worry about him.

Yep. If Okobo comes around like I think he will I love the Booker-Melton-Okobo guard rotation. Then our SF rotation will be Bridges-Warren-Oubre/Jackson. Our C rotation is Ayton-Holmes (who I think will re-sign). We really need a decent PF. You can slide one of the SFs over for some minutes but I'd like to find a solid starting PF. Who Bender is supposed to be would be great. Kevin Love would be great. We have the assets to go and get someone.
Go Suns!

I really want them to go get Kevin Love. I think he would be great here. They would want a pick, but maybe we could give them our 2023 first-rounder or something.

Love, Booker and Ayton together would be _______ defensively. I left the adjective to describe it blank because it would be censored anyway.

I'd rather see them go after RHJ especially since he can be had for a lot cheaper.

I don’t think love is what we need. Too expensive, too old, doesn’t play defense. I’d rather go after someone like mirotic or Harris this offseason. I’m also pretty high on Deandre Hunter and think he could be the 4 of the future for us.

I do not mind Warren at all at pf. A forward rotation of Warren, Bridges, Oubre, and Jackson is about right about minutes distribution. It might be nice to add a player like Mirotic to the mix. I certainly would not be interested in Kevin Love.

Mirotic is going to be asking for a lot of money. Curious as to what he'll get. He would fit in well here.

Why? He's shooting great & can take any PF in the league off the dribble. Other than that? Defensively he tries hard but isn't very good. His rebounding is very poor (4.8 per game.) I think it's a large part of why we're getting out rebounded every game. Josh chips in less than 4. Bridges with 2.4. Those are all pretty bad for forwards, although in Bridges defense he's been starting in place of Devin for a while.

Mirotic would be great. We should draft DeAndre Hunter and trade for DeAndre Jordan and Andre Iguodala and Andre Roberson, then we can start an entirely (De)Andre lineup.

The fit on offense and on the glass is good, but I don’t think it would work defensively. IMO, the biggest reason not to trade for him is that he’s a chronically injured player. I don’t see that changing and he’s got a massive extension that’s about to kick in.
