Deal For PHO’s #6

Post by thinktank »

I feel this deserves its own thread.

Who would you trade and who would you pick?

Teague + Saric + 11

For

Johnson + 6.

Take Sekou.

This helps Phoenix win now, in a West down year, and they can decide later if they want Saric. They have almost nothing at PG and PF, both.

Wolves get the youngest, and perhaps BPA at 6. White is also an option.

Teague
Booker
Warren
Saric
Ayton

that gets you 8-10 in the west. No man's land.

If the Suns are dumb enough, sure.

I have seen this trade hoovering around the internet, but I think I just take Little. BUT that depends on what you could get for Saric on his own. I doubt we re-sign him, so moving him in some deal is better than nothing if it is cap neutral. And doesn't PHX have enough space to just absorb everything? Not sure adding Johnson is needed.

Hovering around the internet? It's been me posting it here in a couple of threads,It's good that Tank has learned to just steal ideas from the best now.

Still think they ask for next year's pick instead of Saric though. No big deal since we can still flip Saric elsewhere. And adding Johnson is essentially another thing we put in the trade by taking his money.

My opinion differs. I think if the Wolves are dumb enough......

I feel the talent is going to be just as good at 11 as it is at 6.

Please fuck off so hard. I don’t read almost 100% of your posts because you’re just a big angsty crybaby right now.

Wait a New York minute.

This trade idea has been discussed already in other threads.

Got anything new?

The idea is over about a week old and I first saw it in the TNT board on RealGM (possibly where thinktank saw it), which is also part of the internet. I don't care if it is a byproduct of collective consciousness or not, the point is others have seen it as an option as well.

Hey, I didn't say that so where did you get it from.

You know, because you parrot my ideas and pretend they are yours? You know? Like you do?

You're crying right now aren't you? Why? I'm not I'm...........oh wait........I am crying laughing.

Meh. Probably so but dont love it.

Tyler Johnson is probably the last guy on their roster I would want. Realize that it makes the money works. But f that noise.

Suns might like this deal if Coby and Garland is gone. Wouldnt they just want French freak, or think NAW for PG at 11.

I still like Saric a little bit here for us. God this board just hates him. Yes not perfect, but no not a bad player.

As for Suns roster if somehow able to poach an actual good player while moving up. Bridges, Warren, Josh Jackson, Okobo then sure lets talk. Bare min I guess would be getting Bender back if giving up Saric.

Will the french freak be a star, maybe? Culliver would be there at 6 if Garland and White are taken and Suns are actually looking to move this pick. So there is enough intrique to make the move. Both have Ceiling potential higher than anyone at 11.

im gonna walk this one back.

Id be thrilled if #6 is as good as Saric. Rather have Saric and 11.

Teague doesn't hurt or help us. Freeing the cap space would allow us to sign.. oh yeah, nobody.

Pretty stupid take to think I steal your ideas. Really stupid. You seem to think the rest of internet doesn’t exist?

We agree on this deal. Good. Let’s build rapport not enmity.

Not accounting for the salary of #6, I have our cap room at around $20,682,000 if PHX absorbed Teague & Saric - right in the ballpark for a potential 4/$80M Russell deal.

The #6 pick is slotted to make approximately $4M this year.

Could $16.6M in year 1 (w/ ladders up thereafter) be enough to land Russell? Probably not...

You were calling multiple people out. People who didn’t have anything to do with anything you were arguing with thinktank. That’s why people chuckled. You were totally bizarre.
