One trade we should be looking at right now: Troy Daniels for Jonah Bolden. Philly needs guards who can shoot and has too many bigs.

Bolden can operate as a stretch 4 alongside Ayton. We may need to sweeten the pot a little though.

I guess I’m at the point where I feel the Suns are going to have to get creative to be able to lure talent. I’m not a huge Tobias fan but it just gets old doing nothing and to think we can lure a big FA on our own is just laughable. We literally have to be the least desirable franchise to sign with right now.
It does feel really frustrating are active and following a plan, while we seem to be doing little more than twiddling our thumbs. I do think we should wait until the lottery to make a major move, but it's tough having that patience when it feels like are just flushing another season down the toilet.
This season is over, dude.

Yeah, this season was flushed before it started.

I’d guess the young player would be one of the Pg’s. This is a trade I’d do for Ball.

Booker is out again tonigh. If Anthony Davis would commit to resigning with us, I wouldn’t hesitate to make a package including Booker for him and Jrue Holiday.

What's the point of even talking about Anthony Davis trades? He doesn't want to be here, and they are 97% done trading him to the Lakers. They are just haggling about the details at this point. AD is not going to be a Sun. 0% chance.

because it is a message board and talk is what we do. I agree with Sauce. I would do that trade. He is just expressing that Booker is not as untouchable to him as he once was because of the chronic injuries.

Why are we upset the Suns didn’t trade for Harris? He has 3 assists a game this year. He may have been available, but that’s not the guard we need. We need somebody that can pass the ball.

Would it be possible to sign Cousins as our PF this summer? If other teams are reluctant to give him the max, perhaps we could "overpay" for him?

Maybe because he isn't a guard and plays PF.

Davis is pretty much the same. Been better the last 2 years but before that you could pencil him in for 20 missed games per year.
Go Suns!

He's not thinking of resigning here without Booker here.

Because unlike you most of us don’t have a favorite team that is in playoff contention right now. Our team sucks, management hasn’t got a clue, and there’s no reason to believe that will change anytime soon. What do you expect us to do, sit around with our thumbs up our butts?

Certainly you have the right to talk about whatever you want. But there are many other trade ideas that are less preposterous that you could talk about. If you want to fantasize about AD, why not propose scenarios that land us Lebron, or Kevin Durant, or Kawhi? KD looks like he may leave the Warriors; what kind of package can we put together?

Fair. I’m just frustrated with Booker. He’s certainly taken a step back this year in play, attitude and health. I expect much more from him on-court and off-court now with the contract extension. He can’t even stay on the court, and many times his play and attitude have hurt us. What I meant to say in general, was that I don’t consider him untouchable for the right player any longer.

I have similar feelings, but I would say that he has improved this year over last. I just don't think we have seen as much improvement as we wanted, and his body language/effort on the court leaves a lot to be desired.

I still would like us to get Conley. If we're lucky enough to win the Zion sweepstakes, Conley is better fit to lead the team than Lonzo.
