At the end of the current B.S. Report, Bill's dad asks him if there is anyone that he wants the Celtics to go after with their current assets and the first name he says is Eric Bledsoe.
Go Suns!

Trade for Kelly Olynyk and INF would be ecstatic.

I wouldn't be mad if Phoenix moved Bledsoe for Olynyk.

Me neither.

In fact, that's exactly the type of move we need to try to pull off.

Bigs > Guards. Just way too many good guards in the game these days. Not to mention too many on this team.

Very positive. The negative is 6.6 fouls per 36.

Len is freaking awesome. Or, at least, he's revealed himself to be an exciting prospect.

He's still got such a long way to go, but he's so young that the potential is very exciting.

It's hard to imagine Ryan would trade his reason for living for a player he didn't even bother to work out prior to the draft.

Ha. Strange things happen when you're under pressure. Not saying McD is in any sort of jeopardy as of yet, but ya never know.

I really don't understand wanting him gone.

And there's no point in wanting Marcus gone if you want to hang on to Markieff.

Welcome to phxsunstradescenarios.net

Every season during the season there are about 1,000 trade scenarios posted here trading different Suns players. About every other season there is actually a real trade made midway through the season and it's never what anybody expects or posted and the Suns never ask anybody here for their opinions. An accurate Suns trade scenario posted here happens about .000000001% of the time. It seems like 90% of the talk here is trade talk that will never happen. Such a waste of time. I'm guessing there is a 90% chance we will have the same team at the end of the season, but all anybody can ever think to talk about is who we should trade 24/7. Has anybody ever considered being a fan of the team we have and to let the actual Suns front office worry about trades?

I wish there was a preference on this site to block trade scenarios posts from coming up on my screen. It would be permanently on. Thats why I rarely post here. It's like coming to a fan site where they all hate the team. So annoying.

I think I will go to the RUSH band site and post some trade scenarios. What do you guys think? Alex Lifeson for Billy Gibbons? Different styles, but the numbers all work. Maybe David Gilmore would be a better fit, but would Lifeson fit in with Pink Floyd? He doesn't sing, but can play pretty good. Maybe just a two year contract since they aren't spring chickens anymore. Steve Morse would probably be overkill for Rush, but Deep Purple might get a bump in popularity with Alex at the helm.

We can have a trade scenario thread and just keep them there if it's that big of a deal. I think coming up with trades to improve your team is part of the fun of being a fan, but I could see it getting annoying if you're not into it.
Go Suns!

It's a message board. It's part of the experience. And compared to other boards, I don't think we overdo it here.

It's hard to imagine it because if nothing more than cap space and Olynyk come to Phoenix, that package for Bledsoe is a steal for the Celtics, and I am not taking anything away from KO. We get that Bledsoe is an imperfect player to have but come on now. There is a much better candidate if you want to alleviate the logjam at PG.
