Baynes is too expensive for the Suns if they're planning to upgrade at PG.

FUCK YES, THE FRANK KAMINSKY EXPERIENCE IS COMING TO AN END.

Frank was/is a good character with a great attitude on the team. He sucked when he wasn't making his layups, and then we found out that he had a fractured leg. Maybe that had something to do with it, but he certainly wasn't great.

Frank was good once a month. That's fine for the vet minimum, but it's a huge waste at the MLE.

If Kelly’s gone this team needs a serious athleticism infusion.

Agreed. Was thinking about this this afternoon. He's really our only plus athlete.

It's one reason I like Christian Wood much more than the other PF options.

If I see a Westbrook to Phx rumor I’ll have a stroke. At least CP is a great basketball fit with the Suns, attitude and contract aside. Westbrook is terrible all around.

I'm not completely sold on Wood and I'm not even a fan of Gordon but if we were to lose Oubre, either of those guys would make up for the loss in athleticism.

And I can't see the FO wanting a guy like Westbrook. I don't think he fits the culture or style plus the extra year on his deal is a killer.

Jerami Grant is basically Kelly if he decided to focus on defense over offense. But same size and athleticism.

That won’t happen. He’s not even close to a JJ or Monty guy.

I'd be very unhappy with Grant. He's like Oubre, except worse in every way.

And Oubre isn't that good when you actually look at his on court / off court numbers.

hey! I would like the Suns to be a legit contender in the West!
I know, right?! When is the last time you heard "Suns" and "legit contender in the West" in the same sentence?!

Agreed. Not a fan. I like his intensity but that's it. He's too much of a liability from any distance.

I don’t get it. They don’t want Oubre who’s on his last year. So What else they want? We’re not giving up Bridges, 10th, or Cam Johnson. They want another expiring contract?

I don't think Westbrook is anything to worry about. James Jones seems smarter than that.
