No, Memphis wants Ja. Probably keeps Conley to mentor him.

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Lottery
Suns take Clarke, get in on LA NO deal, pick off Lonzo, the make a bigger trade with draft picks they want to unload, Warren and Johnson for Bradley Beal.

Agreed they would love that, but no way MEM will do that.

Cap relief. Wall is going to kill them and they need to rebuild.

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Lottery
Why was Zion hoping for NY, when they were going to trade him to NO anyways?

I don't dispute what you're saying but where does he think he can do that? It's not the Lakers and the Clippers don't have the horses.Wally_West wrote: I think so. Feel like there is too much bad blood with everyone involved. Zion is great but he is not making them instant title contenders, it will probably be another year or two for that and it sounds like Davis wants to complete for a title now.
Go Suns!

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Lottery
Right. I think he wants to leave to live in a place like LA or Miami or NY. I mean, who wouldn't want that if you were an extremely rich dude in your 20s?carey wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 7:02 pmI don't dispute what you're saying but where does he think he can do that?

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Lottery
TJ, Warren, the 6th, and JJ will totally be in play this draft. What team bites at our pick?
Re: 2019 NBA Draft Lottery
It would be NY...If Memphis loves Ja, then it’s not happening, but if they are one of the teams that has RJ over Ja?Indy wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 6:56 pmAgreed they would love that, but no way MEM will do that.

Then Ja is still there at 3 and maybe there is a deal to be made there. Maybe a 3 team deal where we add assets to get AD to NY?
I’m not saying it’s likely...just throwing out ideas
Re: 2019 NBA Draft Lottery
We’re going to be desperate to trade the pick because we haven’t scouted anybody. Pretty good bet we end up trading it for absolute crap.Drewsprocket wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 7:08 pmTJ, Warren, the 6th, and JJ will totally be in play this draft. What team bites at our pick?

Couldn't have said it any better. Also add that James Jones has repeatedly said that they're not interested in getting younger.Cap wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 7:15 pmWe’re going to be desperate to trade the pick because we haven’t scouted anybody.

It's really fucking stupid. Drives me nuts how these GMs make statements that give away so much leverage.

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Lottery
Will be really telling to see who we bring in for draft workouts. A guy like Garland is especially important to bring in as he only played 5 games.

Re: 2019 NBA Draft Lottery
I could be mistaken but don’t the Lakers have enough cap space for a max free agent? How much would a AD trade affect that?? If they could trade for AD and still have max money, I would think Lebron and AD would be enough to attract a huge FA. Kawhi? Butler? Klay? Kemba? Kyrie?Indy wrote: ↑Tue May 14, 2019 7:04 pmRight.

I feel Durant is gone, KD or no KD, the warriors will still be the team to beat but I have to think no KD warriors makes them very much vulnerable. Right?
