Using the cap space won’t be the problem...we’d use it...whether we used it wisely would be the question

Depends and the goals will be different.

I’d rather max a really good player than use that same money on 3 average players.

It’s the difference of Amare vs. Warwick T******u and C*******s

Who would you go after if we had max cap space?

I'm hoping to see Warren moved this week. I'm hoping for something like:

Warren to Detroit

for

Langston Galloway (stretch and waive his $7.3 mil salary for 19-20 season)
Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk (waive non-guaranteed 19-20 salary)
#15 pick

----------------

Warren to OKC

for Andre Roberson and #21 (stretch and waive Roberson's last year of his contract)

IF the suns shed his contract for a lousy middling draft pick and don’t use that salary savings to improve the club in trade or FA, I will .....not be surprised one bit at the lack of creativity or desire to actually improve the club.

Those are just awful trades in a shitty draft unless it’s a pure salary dump with future moves on the horizon

Is Dinwiddie just trolling suns fans?

Probably a bad idea but:

Marcus Smart, 14th and 20th for #6, TJ and Melton

I'm biased here because I really like Smart. I know TJ has a lot of value as a scorer but it's more about moving his money to a position of need. I've always liked Smart going back to college. He's 25 but a 6 year vet next year, played on winning teams in big games and would bring an edge defensively. He fits the bill as a combo who can start or come off the bench, offense isn't great but can hit the 3, gets his 4 apg and makes just a bit more than TJ (1.2 mil more/year). We can still go after DLo or another PG but Smart at least gives us added depth we know can play either position. And if we are confident we're getting Dlo, Smart's a great precursor to that and a great fit next to either DLo or Booker.

At 14 we'd have a good shot at guys like NAW, Hachimura, Washington, maybe even Clarke, and 20 take BPA or try and trade it/sell it. Not sure I'd want 3 rookies on the team. And if we move the 20th pick we can save 2 mil for a little more capspace. Salary for the 6th pick is about 4.8mil, 14th pick is about 2.8 and the 20th is 2mil based off last year's numbers. To create the additional space, we can stretch Tyler.

For Boston, the last thing they need is another SF but that's why they get 6. Melton's a throw in they'd probably coach up and get a lot out of as well.

I don’t think I’d do it...Smart is ok, but I’d want him to shoot better. His defense would be great! It does become more appealing if Clarke is still available at 14.

Smart/Booker/Oubre/Clarke/Ayton is interesting. Kinda need Smart and Clarke to shoot.

The Suns have discussed forwards T.J. Warren and Josh Jackson in several separate trade packages, as well as the No. 6 pick, league sources said.

Those are just awful trades in a s*** draft unless it’s a pure salary dump with future moves on the horizon

Do you think Warren is worth more than a mid-1st and cap relief? Which team values him more than that?

That is an awful lineup. Maybe that would’ve been a good lineup in the 90s with a bruiser style play. We’re in 2019. 4/5 players have to space at the 3.
