yeah, Love would fit right in here
soft on defense
on offense, hanging out on the perimeter like Bender, only on the Suns he wouldn't have double threats (Lebron, Irving/Thomas) opening him up, and he'll be less effective
in a couple of years the suns will travel with him in the luggage compartment, like Chandler now

let's give up salary and assets for a non-time-liner who makes us a little better now so we can drop in the draft

keep your eyes on the ball, ya'll

Sacramento has to clear a roster spot to take on one or two additional players in a deal with Cleveland and has been discussing deals for young forwards Malachi Richardson and Skal Labissiere to clear roster spots, league sources said.

I would like to see make a play for Skal.

What are the Kings even doing?

I'd definitely take a shot at Skal.

Would you trade Monroe, Chriss and a pick?

I sure would.

Less effective? Are we forgetting the monster numbers he used to put up in Minnesota as a first option?

Must've forgot we have Booker to open him up...

I think Loves game will age just fine, Pau played into his mid 30s from the perimeter, was still effective passing and on the boards.

All I want this deadline is a new Gm and owner

you mean 4 or 5 seasons ago?

yeah, i remember watching Chandler in the playoffs years ago, thinking why can't we have a center like that?

I mean, Kevin is 29 and Tyson is 35, but ok?

Meanwhile LeBron's supposedly mad the Cavs couldn't make a deal for Paul George or Bledsoe. Think we could've snagged the BK pick given the Cavs troubles? Or give them Bledsoe and Chriss for Love?

Weren't they about to get both Bledsoe and George, but since LeBron wouldn't give them a better idea what he's deciding to do they backed out of the deal? How can he be mad at anyone besides himself? Is this some fake outrage that he will use as a fake argument for not resigning with the Cavs this summer?

When LeBron retires, he will have played 9 (or more) years in Cleveland with 1 championship. That should tell us all we need to know about Cavs management.

LeBron is managing the Cavs.

LeBron is managing the Cavs.

He needs to learn to delegate better.

Yes and Yes, and the Cavs shouldn't let a player run the show.

To be fair to LeBron, it's not like the Cavs did well when he wasn't managing them.

nope, didn't forget Booker, that's why i said "double" threats

i'd still like to know how a 29 year old center,
who is a defensive liability,
with a big salary,
who's not a free agent, so we'll have to sacrifice assets for
who his own teammates don't seem to respect now,
fits into the sun's FUTURE
instead of just getting us a few more wins when we need less

While I agree with the statement that the Cavs aren't well managed, I don't think your post is very compelling. How many decades did great Suns players play with zero championships? Does that mean the franchise was badly managed by Jerry and Bryan Colangelo? I'd argue that the management back then was excellent overall, but sadly it just didn't lead to the ultimate prize.

The Suns have never had anyone at LeBron's talent level.
