Obviously Dragic would be part of w/e McD would slap together, but he just had his best season splitting ball handling duties, and for as much shit Rubio (fairly) gets for be a terrible shooter, he's decent 3pt shooter.

How do we know this means the Suns won't match? (as assumed in the other thread)

Did you become a Dragic guy this last season, TOO? If I remember correctly, you weren't so hot on him before the season.

Ah, I forgot. I guess it's just Bledsoe and Tucker that are restricted.

Well, you guys are all happy but our team just got worse unless we replace him with somebody decent. Now we're really light at PF.

That he did! Glad to have you on the train.

I'd be thrilled getting Love but not at the expense of Dragic. I think they'd complement each other's games very well.

I know Frye was a good story, but his 2nd half collapse and Kieff playing so well has me thinking we'll be ok. (If we dont get Love, which I suspect we will)

Who's going to back up Kieff? (If we don't get Love.)

I think Frye just hit a wall last year after being out the previous year. I guess we'll see how he does for the Magic.

That is the question, his bro I'd guess right now with Warren slipping into Marcus' minutes.

Maybe we pursue Haslem?

I thought from when he was drafted that Kieff would be a solid low level long-time pro, best off the bench. So far, I'm right. I would like him to stay in that role, off the bench. Just need a high level starter to keep him there right now.

Frye probably won't have as good a year playing on a worse team.

If Markieff becomes the starting stretch 4, we should add a Jordan HIll/Ed Davis for defense and athleticism, or even a versatile James Johnson type.

I think Hill is a solid option as well, can play 4/5, I think he's a better 5 than Plumlee right now personally, but I'll give Plums the benefit of the doubt, he's a hard worker.

I just meant that Frye probably wanted to stay and the Suns wouldn't match those terms.

So I roamed on over to RealGM in search of INF and apparently there is an "in the know" poster there named ray ray who says its about to get bumpy for us, but cannot say more. Is this guy legit? Where is Kerssed when ya need him?

What's bumpy? Bledsoe tells us he doesn't want to be here? We can still match or sign and trade him.

It would be nice for something to actually happen. This past week has been pretty boring with nothing but so called sports reporters quoting each other as sources. Although it is kinda amusing to watch them spin one random guys opinion into some solid source inside an organization and get it pushed to the national media.

I dunno, obviously the bumpiest thing would be moving Dragic. Blowing FA cash could also be bumpy.. Was just wondering if anyone knew if he was legit?
