Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News

That makes sense…I figured he probably wasn’t called the original sun right from the get go

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

Freeman is a great story. Walked on as a freshman after growing 4 inches. 19/13 last year in college. Showed out at the combine. 6’8 212, 7’2 wingspan. Hard worker, great motor, smart kid, stand up guy it seems.

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

I do think having a floor spacing 5 would be really nice. Our offense was pretty great when we went KD at the 5…having 5 out and keeping a big on the floor would be good. I think Ware and Missi are my top guys right now at 22(if they last). I’d take Da Silva as well, but I think we need a 5. I’ll ha...

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News

Interesting…weird bbref has it listed the way they do. I guess maybe “Original Sun” has more to do with just being the best player on that initial team..or he did score the first 2 points. No one knows Gary Gregor, gotta twist the facts a tiny bit to make it someone fans care about.

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?

Utah pick is top 10 protected I believe next year. Houston pick is either the 12th pick this year or their pick next year.

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?

I think you can game the system with that unprotected ‘31 pick. If you stay in the 2nd apron long enough doesn’t that pick move to the end of the 1st round? So, trade the pick, keep a high roster salary and limit the downside. No the first one that would move to the end of the 1st is the 2032 pick

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?

That’s not true…towards the end I mentioned you’d have those picks available to attach to Nurk, Grayson, or Royce at the deadline to upgrade. Also who says they have to be OKC’s own picks? The reason I used them is they have tons of picks. You could get a Utah pick, a Houston pick, a LAC pick, a Mia...

Re: 2024 Suns Offseason: Where do we go from here?

I really don’t like the idea of trading any more unprotected firsts. Not even for multiple 1sts? The chances of that ’31 pick being near the top of draft is significantly greater than the odds of getting something good with one of those late picks from OKC. I get that…if you are done with the curre...

Here’s my full off-season plan with two timelines: Draft: 1. Draft Yves Missi or Kel’el Ware 2. Draft Tristan Da Silva Retain:(timelines are the same here) Re-sign Royce O’Neale and Bol Bol Trades: 1 and 2: Trade unprotected 2031 pick to OKC for 2 1sts and 3 2nds. 1.

Here’s a draft article for the suns… https://www.brightsideofthesun.com/2024/5/23/24163058/2024-nba-draft-phoenix-suns-prospects-fit-tristan-da-silva-daron-holmes I really like Tristan Da Silva…I’m intrigued by Bobi Klintman as well. Both are forwards that add some size. A little more defense from K...

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News

Here’s my next thought…trade the 2031 1st for multiple 1sts…that pick is seen as highly valuable…I feel like we could get 2-3 lower level 1sts for it…like wouldn’t OKC or some other top tier team give up 3 late 1sts for our unprotected 2031 1st?

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News

Nvm, Marks was wrong. You can’t acquire a player by sending out a player in a S&T if you’re over the 2nd apron. We’d have to sign Royce and trade him Dec. 15th

Re: 2024 Suns General Offseason News

I was thinking about the prospect of trading Royce O’Neale and then Bobby Marks mentioned it as an option for us and now I can’t stop thinking about it. We can give him any salary number we want as part of a sign and trade. We want Deandre Hunter from Atlanta? Sign Royce to a 3 year deal starting at...

Re: 2024 NBA Draft

Hey, we have no evidence whether my uncle can play in the NBA, either. He's 76, obese, and he just had gall bladder surgery, so I'm going to dismiss his stats from last year. But there's really no evidence either way. We'll have to wait and see!! You’re right…you’re smarter than the people that do ...

Re: 2024 Playoffs: Around the League Round 3 (Conf Finals) News Thread

I agree it doesn’t work as well as the Luka version..but it might be better than our current team. Though you’d really need to add another ball handler.
