    What would be a deal you can't refuse, everyone?

    I think the only way you trade #2, is if they take Deng. You gotta remember KP is gonna be due an extension before you know it so theres value with a new draftee.

    Also, to add to my argument on what else it would take.. IMO, you HAVE to find a partner that will take Randle and trade you a point guard or a pick.

    Agree?

    That'd be one impressive team.

    Deng/JC/#2 for KP/Lee.....Lee could fill in the temp void of no starting SG, he shot almost 40% from 3's last season and is a respectable defender. We also clear Dung contract, Lee contract equates to JC. So our cap still cleared up, could use $ now to sign a vet PG.

    I think Zinger is overrated in general, but he is being criminally underrated here. He's putting up good numbers in an absolutely TOXIC situation in NY.

    I'd trade Randle and one of 27/28 for Zinger in a heartbeat.

    I don't know who that guy is, but Phil would be such a damned fool to do this.

    I bet he gets Bledsoe/#4/more for Porzingis.

    Actually that's not a terrible deal I guess... take Jackson at #4? Solid return. He'll piss off the fanbase though. :D

    That wouldn't come close to getting it done.



    If this is true it would have taken the #2, Randle (comparable to Chriss I think? If not maybe Ingram) and..JC? I can't think of anything we have comparable to Bledsoe.

    if I had to bet it would be Warren, he could be Melo future replacement. If Pho trades #4 they can't move Bledsoe, they need him now.

    I'd imagine something like #4, Bledsoe and Chriss?

    Edit: well this thread moved fast.

    Don't they still have Brandon Knight? I remember him being serviceable once upon a time.

    he's been glued to the bench for a while now, even Ulis got all the pt once Bledsoe got shut down.

    I'd be willing to deal the #2 pick or Ingram. Not both obviously, but Porzingis is just so special and unique that it'd be worth it IMO.

    Nice deals for the Suns. They will be fun to watch. I was hoping they would get Jackson to match their up tempo game. Booker will be even better. I'll follow them more closely this year.
