Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

Is it possible to do a double sign-and-trade with the Pistons for Greg Monroe? I'm not his biggest fan, but I might consider it.

That's pretty cool. And she's a hooper for sure; if you've ever seen her play, she's really impressive.

Re: Around the League: July 2014

I wouldn't be opposed to having Shawn and Steve here, mostly to serve in mentoring roles to the young guys and also to retire as Suns. Both deserve their names in the Ring of Honor. Shawn would have to take a really reasonable deal, the lakers would have to send us a bunch to take Steve.

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]

I think Dragic is becoming that player. He makes some incredible drives to the hoop and some awesome moves around the hoop. I think most knowledgeable fans would put Dragic on that kind of tier where they would go just to see him play. There's just some games where he has such incredible control an...

Re: How many of you still play basketball?

I still play every chance I get. When I lived in Vegas, I could get a good run in 5 or 6 days a week, but since I've moved to Salt Lake City, it's tougher to find pick-up games. But I've signed up for a few county leagues, so I still get to run at least 3 or 4 days a week. Our team actually won the ...

Re: SUNS 2014: Free Agency 2 (new)

Is anyone watching first take right now? I have off Mondays in the summer, so I am listening to Stephen A. Smith. Just said if Gordon Hayward got 4/63 Eric Bledsoe absolutely deserves the Max. Says the Suns by signing Isaiah Thomas don't want to pay him, he wants the Lakers to make a S&T For hi...

Re: Suns News: The Offseason

No way Bledsoe should get that kind of money. I really like him a lot, but you have to be able to put it together for at least a full, healthy, season. I know he's had some past bonehead moves, but Andray Blatche could be a nice fit. Or maybe if Okafor is healthy this season, he could fill in some a...

Boozer really could fit in well here, and on a one year flyer, it's really low risk.

I don't think he's a tweener, I think he's solidly a PF, who, maybe in a big lineup, could be okay at the SF spot. I think with the right kind of coach, Bennett could turn into a solid pro at the PF spot.

Re: Around the League: July 2014

If the Cavs do end up moving Bennett in any kind of trade, I wonder if we could sneak in and get him for a second rounder. I'm still a fan, and if he develops, could fill a big need for us.

Re: Suns Draft Day 2014

I really don't like the deal. I think Gerald Green is on the cusp of becoming a really great role player, both offensively and defensively. Hope the report doesn't have any legs.

Re: Suns 2014: NBA Draft

I'd love to get Nash back here to back up Goran. It would probably help shave a few minutes off of Goran's load each night too.

It's a dream, but what an off-season it would be to add LeBron. We're an instant championship contender with him on board.

Re: Suns News: The Offseason

I'm not a huge Carmelo fan, but he's a really good player. I wonder what kind of interest we would have in him? I would personally rather have Kevin Love, but if we could sign Carmelo outright, re-sign Bledsoe, and get some good development at the center position, that's not too bad a team right the...

Well, I'm hopeful it's all a smokescreen. But with four first rounders, I'm not opposed to trading some or all of them to move into the top of the draft.

If there's any truth to this, the heat are going to need to clear as much cap space as they can. We should be on the phone with them offering to buy their first rounder.

Totally agree, no way that should have ever been an assist. I think Steve Kerr even mentioned it like 100 times during the broadcast.
