I need two pieces for the future. Legit pieces. Jabari and the 10 is fine. So is Vassel/Sochan/pick, or Ware and a pick. I don't care about the salary filler than comes in, none fo It is going to matter for the next great Suns team anyway. I want pieces that will be helpful in 2-3 years.. You have ...

Suns owe Kevin Durant nothing when searching for trade partner https://arizonasports.com/dan-bickley/suns-owe-durant-nothing/3587285/?lid=mjy7je73xgw8 We already did him a favor when we got him from Brooklyn.

Well let’s revisit in 4 years then

I'm sure we will, I'm just not enamoured with $75 million for a borderline All-Star.

You can run into serious cap issues when you overpay players because you afraid they might get unhappy and want to leave.

Look at it from the reverse - If you're another team in the NBA - why would you take on Beal's no-trade clause when you take into account his salary and availablity issues? Nobody wants to give up any assets for that at this point. Maybe in a year when he's an expiring contract, but not now. And it ...

One thing to keep in mind, Quickley has 4 years and 130 million left on his deal…he’s expensive If $32.6 million is expensive for a starting PG, what is $75 million for a starting SG? Booker makes 53 million next year, not 75 Yes, but they're talking about a two-year, $150 million extension, which w ...

I think if they want to be competitive next year Poeltl, Quickley and the #9 pick is a pretty good start, especially if you can add a couple of big forwards in the draft or by trading Allen or O'Neale. That would leave them with - F - Ryan Dunn, Grayson Allen, Royce O'Neale C - Jakob Poeltl, Nick ...

If $32.6 million is expensive for a starting PG, what is $75 million for a starting SG?

Whatever it takes, whatever it costs. Not my money, that's the cost of bad decisions. But his 20 million on the books for 5 years makes us worse…I just think it’s bad team building. I don’t care about the money either, but 20 million of dead money is just stupid. But you might get your wish…I listen ...

I can only think it was this kind of logic, that even though I say this with 40 Years of hindsight, led the Portland Trail Blazers to pick Sam bowie? Coz I'm pretty sure he'd already had a broken foot in college. And since this is a Durant thread, I'm also reminded of another Trail Blazers draft ...

Who was the better player in our Schleine line, Danny or Joseph?

Schayes was pretty decent in Denver and still probably a little better than Kleine the one year he was here. But those guys never should have been starting 69 games that year.

Also, speaking of bball history, I was quite surprised to learn that Joe Kleine was drafted as high as he was. I found that out today when I was watched a youtube video on/about Keith Lee If you were a pretty good college center, like Kleine, Kent Benson, Jon Koncak, Chris Washburn, William Bedford ...

I am sure TOO was a huge fan of Nurk and Richards. Its almost funny how we were used to mediocre to bad centers, finally draft one good and half the fanbase wanted him gone just to endure more bad Cs. Remind me, which one was the good one? Robin Lopez? Jake Tsakalidis! Dolph Schayes' son They didn ...

Scott Foster wasn't gonna let the favorite lose. We all know this.

Indiana kind of disintegrated on their own there at the end with the missed FTs and the fouls before the ball was inbounded.

Really exciting series to this point.

"Fans" who don't watch the "non-glamour" teams are missing out

The player I want them to get is Kel'el Ware.

His 24-25 stats per 36 min. - 15.1 points, 12.0 rebounds, 1.5 assists, 1.8 blocks, 55% FG%, 69% FT%
