Raps: CamJ, Shamet, Dario, Landale 2 1st, 2nds from PHX
Nets: OG, Trent, Crowder 2 1st and 2 swaps from PHX
Suns: KD
I love all your trade proposals and think you’re probably the most versed person on here when it comes to knowing trade rules. I Feel like the suns are giving up a little too much for KD…. If I’m giving up that many picks, I’m not throwing cam j in there. I’d still prefer scenarios where we take Simmons shit contract off their hands instead of giving them picks and cam j. Is there a situation we can do with that? The ONLY reason i suggest Simmons is because or the report that ishba was willing to spend.
You can’t get to enough salary to take Simmons and KD without also trading Ayton or CP3.
If a KD trade happens, and that’s a big if, I think it’s gonna be Ayton/CamJ/1sts and I imagine Toronto will be involved and taking Ayton with OG or Siakam going to Brooklyn. Brooklyn won’t want Ayton with Claxton there…it could be possible that Claxton is the one who ends up in Toronto with Ayton and Siakam/OG in Brooklyn.
KD is awesome, but no way I'm giving up four 1sts AND Landale for him. #JockItch #Jock4Lyfe
Something to keep in mind.... We drafted Cam J, Booker, Ayton, and Mikal. Granted if we keep winning our picks COULD be in the 20's if traded... but what if KD gets hurt and we spiral? There's plenty of precedence set to show he's not the healthiest human and can't play a full season. If he goes down; we'll be left to replenish with the free agent market which usually isn't where you're going to find some amazing stud. I just don't think it's worth putting all of our eggs in the KD basket.

Gotchya... Thanks for the clarity on that. I knew there's a salary matching situation and defer to your big brains on that
I ignored the tweet about AD sitting down during Bron successful jumper to set the record. I said yeah it looks a little weird lol but the Talk Shows just want some content for their usual daily drivel.....
Hard to not still see stuff on my timeline so I have a question for those who watched. AD had 13 n 8, was that him playing crap or was he getting overlooked cause everyone was caught up trying to get Bron the ball (maybe not making winning plays)
Cause look at dude, man was still clearly pissed

He played like shit. One thing about the clip of him on the bench to consider is that he dove into the bench to save the ball about a minute prior. He could've just been nursing another crack in his glass frame.
There's also this...

Beat me to it. I get the feeling Suns know KD isn’t really available and are holding onto our draft assets until summer. They’re letting these deals slide.
IDK what to make of it. I want KD without giving up Bridges. But I’d like to make a run this season too.
There’s no reason to panic…most trade deadline deals don’t get done until the day of the deadline. Just because we haven’t done anything, doesn’t mean we’re sitting on our hands waiting for KD. I think it’s perfectly reasonable to make sure KD isn’t available before making our other moves.
Was hoping Vanderbilt and Beasley would end up on the Suns, along with Clarkson but seems unlikely based on all that. Boy, we must really be waiting on someone to overpay for Crowder.
Also, alot of talk on other boards about "Would you want Westbrook on the Suns if he gets bought out?" I can't stress this enough, HELL FUCKING NO! You can say what you want about his stats but I've watched the dude play fairly often this year and he has been just a terrible basketball player in all aspects of the game. His only real attribute is that he plays hard. For every good thing he does he does 2 or 3 dumb things that kill an sort of momentum. It's truly baffling how someone in the league that long can have such a low basketball IQ.

One thing I’ve noticed about Suns trades the last few seasons is when one happens it’s usually a surprise and wasn’t really leaked/talked about beforehand.
Suns gonna trade Saric for a 2nd and bring back Alton Ford.
You know he died in 2018, right?
