Suns News: The Offseason (2015)

[Indy]

Needless to speak about how IT3 turned out.

I know I am in the minority, but if we already decided we had to trade Goran, and we knew we weren't bringing back Green, there is no reason to trade IT. He is a very good microwave off the bench, for a very good price.

[Mori Chu]

There's no way Morey would trade for Markieff Morris. He had Marcus and dumped him; he knows about those brothers and what he'd be getting into.

[Superbone]

In this case what I would say is that Markieff has tunnel vision or selective memory. He actually took a pretty modest contract to be here, which in isolation is very nice of him and seems to show loyalty to this team and this city. But I think he feels that he took a discount and only signed at that price because we were also signing his brother. I think he feels like the unspoken agreement was that we'd keep the two Morrii for the duration of that deal, or at the very least, if we were going to trade one, we'd trade them as a package.

So in a way, I can see why he's so upset to be separated from his twin brother again. But he's ignoring all of the other things that happened this past season on and off the court. He and (especially) his brother were trouble-makers and jerks.

I think this spells everything out.

Bernucca definitely hits hard in this article:

Don't make me go carey on you.

Marcus Morris says that "as far as I'm concerned, I never was a Phoenix Sun."

I'm with you, Marcus.

I can say I prefer LAL pick + IT3 to Knight + Cle 2016 pick, but that's it.

And to be fair, it basically led to a $14M/year Knight...

I wish someone would stab the Morris twins in the eye with a dick. Repeatedly.

Have I ever mentioned how much I HATE the Morris twins?

[carey]

No thank you.

Somebody here mentioned IIyasova as well. I personally don't know anything about him.

[wpmiller42]

I think we can do ALOT better than Ilyasova. Unless Detroit wants to throw in an unprotected 1st next year, it's not even close to a deal we should do.

C'mon, AIG. You don't need to sugarcoat it. You're among friends. Go with your emotions.

[Shabazz]

Kevin Pelton's suggested trade partners:

Celtics: F Perry Jones, F/C Jared Sullinger, F/G James Young, possible draft considerations
(also mentions T. Zeller or Olynyk instead of Sullinger)
Hornets: G Brian Roberts, PF Cody Zeller
Lakers: G Jabari Brown, F Ryan Kelly, PF Julius Randle
Blazers: PF Noah Vonleh
Raptors: PF Patrick Patterson

I'd be good with just about any of these options. I kind of really like the Cody Zeller option. Randle doesn't seem realistic.

[Gladiator]

Randle would be incredible but just won't happen. I'm intrigued by Vonleh.
I just don't want to get bogged down with mid range talent on mid to long term deals.
Once Markieff goes who will be the longest tenured Sun?

[Sunsfan4life]

The celtics trade looks nice on paper.

BTW, anyone wanna talk about our schedule? Opening @LAC....10 of 11 gms in Feb at home.

Huh? We open vs. Dallas at home. Oct. 28th.

[Superbone]

Did the schedule just come out? Link?

Your right totally missed the 3 games in October.
