Well, I'm back from a short vacation and much to my dismay, the Suns had a horrible draft, IMO. Splitter was there at #24 (the Spurs WISELY snatched him up - the bigs keep getting bigger while we toil with tweeners with no position) and Kopponen would have been nice at #29. Oh well.
POR made themeselves a
playoff team THIS year. THAT is a proactive and aggressive front office! I may have to adopt them as my #2.
What to do now?
Marion/Barbosa/KT/ATL#1/PHX#1 for KG
Sign Devin Brown (replaces LB), Grant Hill (replaces Marion) and PJ Brown (replaces KT).
We have to give up a bit more to get KG now, IMO, since the draft was a dud. DBrown will come in as our 6th man and backup 2 and he would easily be
Monta Ellis this year. He will be MIP here in PHX and he'd make us not long for LB as much.
Unfortunately, I am not happy with a 3 rotation of Hill-Tucker, but to have Stoudemire-Garnett up front, I'll take a thin 3 rotation.
I can't even resolve how to solve the backup 1 postion now. I's unfortunately all on Banks' shoulders, so we shall see how that pans out.
Since we now have a TE from the JJones trade, are there any young 3's making $2.9M who would suit us better than Jones?
I'm at a loss and I know KG is more and more a pipe dream and at this time I hold no hope for a banner in PHX next year....
