Williams would fit right in. 25 years old, athletic, and a low basketball IQ. SIGN HIM UP!

Buzz on Twitter is that we're offering big money to Dellavedova, like Bledsoe and Knight combined big. :barf:

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Check the account name, Cap. AFAIK there aren't two "Ls" in Vertical.

On the upside, he's restricted. Maybe the Cavs will match.

It's a fake account.

I'm going to assume you knew Delly wasn't going to get $30M a year from the Suns and that you were just fucking with us too.

Thank God it's fake. Funny though

LOL. I mean I liked Delly coming out of St. Marys, but...

Andrew Nicholson, Jared Dudley, Trevor Booker all guys I'd have interest in and in Booker or Dudley's case could prob net an asset down the line if they play well here and come for a reasonable deal.

I didn't even get past the first line of the tweet before scrolling down praying it was a mistake.

Not only that, they're capital 'i's.

Nice try, Cap.

Robot?

LOL @ fake Delly $118m contract. Man I'd love to get Dudley back here as a Sun. He was the best. Great locker room guy, great for team chemistry and cheerful overall attitude. And we need more good shooters and guys who hustle on defense.

Guaranteeing PJ Tucker's $5m salary is, as others have said, a no-brainer, even if we get rid of him later on. $5m is almost minimum wage in the NBA at this point. Top draft picks make something like $3.6m, so $5m is barely north of what rookies are earning. Man, the times sure have changed in the NBA. I remember when the minimum salary was well under $1m.

I'm torn on Dudley. I would only give him a 2-year deal because he's 30 and, although healthy last year, has been struggling a bit in that department. He shot pretty well last year for Washington. 42% from 3 and 48% from the field. I worry about his ability to play the 4 full-time. He's only 6' 7" after all. He does have those "athletic hands" though. His shot chart is interesting. Almost all right corner and right wing. I guess Wall operates exclusively on the left side? http://vorped.com/1-nba/2014-2015/playe ... shotchart/

nit-picky, but Townes made 5.7 last year. So I expect top draft picks to be 6 or 6.5 this year. Probably someone knows for sure. In any case, you point that PJ is a good deal stands.

If we bring back Dudley, I would love to see us ship out Tucker for a future first.

For some reason, I thought the rookie scale was based on % of cap, but was questioning that when many were talking about how the rookies are going to be getting screwed.

Also, I'm down for trading a few of the players on the team (ie. Knight, Tucker, Chandler) for good '17 1st round draft picks. I would love to see multiple high lottery picks.

Agreed. Somewhat the same player.
Plus, TJ is going to need minutes somewhere ...

I'd like to see us re-sign Leuer now in that 8mil range if we can.
