I'm not interested. In my eyes, he's behind both Archie and TJ in the rotation. Don't think it makes sense for either side for Gerald to be stuck at the end of the bench. I'm sure there's a team out there who would give him rotation minutes, but it shouldn't be us.

I think it depends on the money. Most likely some team is gonna give him 8 million a year, I'd pass if it came to that.

Can you name a guy on our team that regularly looks to give the ball to bigs near the basket? People don't give him credit for it, but Green does that. I swear that Len, BW, hell, even Markeiff have more assists from Green that from Bledsoe this year.

I think that anything above 8 is too much too. I would prefer a duplicate deal to PJs, where it is like 5.5, then 5.3, then 5.1. Ideally with a team option for season 3.

Goodwin passes. TJ passes. And I wouldn't pay even $5 mil. I say let him go.

Green is a luxury for a rebuilding team. I don't think we are anywhere near contention next year so I think he ends up on a contender.

One prospect I'm warming up to is Tyus Jones. I was thoroughly unimpressed with him in the Hoop Summit game, but each time I've seen him this season, I've been quietly impressed with how he plays. He'll never be an All-Star, but I see him embodying so much of what the Suns are lacking in their point guard play: toughness, steadiness, high basketball IQ, good decision-making, and reliable long-range shooting. I like him next to Knight.
His closest comp is Tyler Ennis. I'm not saying I wouldn't draft Tyus Jones, just that we gave his twin away for another score first pg along with an athletic backup center and a potentially good 1st round pick. I've said it before, but I am not liking that deal.

I hope to see Knight do that, and maybe Archie with more time. But it kills me how often we look away from it instead of use it to our advantage. Hell, that is almost the entire selling point of bringing in BW. Get him the ball on the roll or around the hoop and he gets it in the bucket. We are marginalizing him. I can't even talk about how often we do that to Len--makes me crazy.

INF who would you keep and who would you let go at this point?

Sorry for the delayed response.
Gone: Bledsoe, Morris Twins, Tucker.
I'd be willing to let Green walk too, but it isn't a must.

While Suns fans get a little aggravated.
