Pull this off Ryan, then make a GodFather offer to Chris Paul and let’s kick ass.
Paul
Booker
Jackson
Love
Ayton
With Knight/Okobo, Bridges/Reed and Bender/Williams coming from the bench. Make it Bender/Thompson and we are set.

I would be very surprised if anyone gives us anything for him. Maybe we use him for salary filler in a bigger trade.

I mean, what else do you expect him to say at this point?
Not lie.
So if he actually wanted Doncic, for example, you'd rather he come out and say it now?
Did you read the article? If he really preferred Doncic to Ayton I wouldn't want him to say that Ayton was the "unanimous" pick.
I would absolutely want him to lie. He can have reservations and disagreements behind closed doors, but in public the coach has to be all in on his team. Can't let the media stir up trouble for the team.

Trade scenarios on twitter right now:
Phx sending the Milwaukee pick to the Lakers for Ball, who are then sending the Milwaukee pick to the Spurs in a Kawhi deal.
Phx sending Chandler to Houston for Ryan Anderson.
Ryan Anderson is done. I would need something really good back to take his contract.
Ball for the MIL pick would be good value.

The Lakers trading Lonzo Ball to the Suns is about the most improbable of scenarios I can come up with.
I don't know who would be coming to Phoenix, but my best guess would be Chandler and/or Williams going out with the Suns taking on more long term salary attached to a quality asset.
Yep. That seems the most likely situation.

No clue about this guy
Based on this and that Tim guy, my guess would be a trade with Cleveland around Kevin Love (a “Big” coming here), involving expiring contracts and future picks, signaling them entering into rebuild and letting James go.
Make it Warren, Chriss and Dudley please, with the Mil pick and our own (heavily protected), and JUST Kevin coming here. II think Cleveland would want to dump JR Smith or Clarkson on us, and then I would counter with swapping Thompson for Chandler and Daniels (throw in) and lowering the protections on our pick (Top 4, just in case the ping pong balls smile at us again)
I think that's way too much for Kevin Love. Honestly, I think Chriss and the Milwaukee pick is plenty. I'd be tempted to give up a little more if they threw in Nance.

Chriss and a pick will probably net us Kevin's brother, Taylor Love.

Guys, this is probably a trade between the Solar Panel and Locked On Suns. Settle down.

So even if he preferred Doncic, when asked if Ayton was the unanimous pick, you expected him to answer it as "Everyone except me wanted Ayton so not quite unanimous, but close"?
OK, you didn't read it then. He wasn't asked if Ayton was the unanimous pick. He volunteered it.

The whole idea of buying another week on Ulis' extension is so stupid because obviously teams are going to be expecting McD to be shopping him to get something. If we wanted him, we'd have extended him. But McD loves killing his own guys' value.

Some interesting posts to wake up too. Lol.
I feel like it just bunch of rando talk. Until I see something from a more well known source I’m not gonna hold my breath.
Rando or Rondo?
Good advice not to hold your breath. Never heard of any of these guys that are 'breaking' this news.

That’s not it at all. He can be part of a trade to a team looking to shed salary that would decline his option once it traded for him.

Exactly. Suns have 9 million dollars of non guaranteed salary right now
