Suns Agree to Deal with Tyson Chandler

[EDC]

So is there any way to make the money work for LMA without involving Bledsoe?

[Indy]

I still think Len can play some PF in spots. But i could see him as part of a S+T in some way.

I will seriously be pissed if McD bails on Len.

Me too. Even with LMA and Chandler.

Trade MoBros/Len/Tucker..

yes. I think the Awful Twins and Tucker get it there.

Don't think you need (or want) Len in there to make it happen.

They must intend to dump Bledsoe + Morrii and/or Tucker on Portland. I don't see why PDX would do that to help us steal their best player, especially if they don't really want those players back and could just let him walk to San Antonio for free without taking back so much salary.

[EDC]

On the plus side Tyson definitely brings the vet experience to the locker room. Maybe he can straighten out the mess it has become.

That is a hard thing to sell to casual fans. "We let our best player go and got nothing back except cap flexibiltiy!"

One can only hope.

I think Portland would gladly take Markieff, he's a good player on a great deal. Marcus and Tucker are just "eh" players on "eh" deals

Right. None of them are bad deals (financially).

Look guys, if LMA says he's willing to come here, don't worry. We'll make the room. We have 5 1st rounders over the next 3 seasons to dump contracts. You probably only need to spend 2 of them because Markieff is signed to a good deal.

I however am in no way getting myself hyped for a Bledsoe-Knight=Warren=LMA-TC lineup. Nope not doing it.

[iLLmatic]

Too late here. I'm hyped up.

[ShelC]

It'd throw a big wrench in SAs plans if they shipped off Splitter assuming or planning on getting LMA and we straight stole him out from under them. I'd be really sad about that.

You're always so negative Carey, gosh.

[EDC]

If the Spurs are able to offer LMA the max I think we have no shot. Although crazier things have happened. So who knows.

I'm pretty stunned. My friend texted me about Chandler. My intial thought was "I really like Tyson Chandler" my 2nd thought was "He finally got a leader" my 3rd thought was "He can't play with Len"

Now I hear he is meeting with Aldridge. I don't give a sh!t who goes back to Portland, if we come away with Aldridge, who IMO is the best player on the market and a game changer for this franchise, we get an A this offseason.

[Furlanfufi]

I'm stunned also. First I thought, "why are we bringing Chandler at this time of his career?", but now we have a team that can be interesting for LA.

If we bring him and shed the twins at the same time, wow!!!

Also great mentor for len and great pick and roll player. That was always markieff's biggest flaw. He's pretty useless in the pick and roll.

Definitely worried about len and Chandler playing together. I guess you can just put knight, booker, and granger? out there and let them fire away from 3 and crash the boards with Chandler-Len
