possibly attainable PFs

[elindholm]

If the Suns re-sign Oubre, they won't have much money left, but they'll still have some. Are any of these backup PFs reasonable options on the cheap?

Kenneth Faried (UFA, HOU)
JaMychal Green (UFA, LAC)
Anthony Tolliver (UFA, MIN -- played 24 uneventful games with the Suns in 2014-15)
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (UFA, BKN -- if you consider him a PF -- some rumors that the Suns have expressed interest)
Trey Lyles (RFA, DEN -- DEN has extended qualifying offer)

Bobby Portis (RFA, WAS -- allegedly expecting a much bigger payday)
Kenneth Faried (UFA, HOU)
JaMychal Green (UFA, LAC)
Anthony Tolliver (UFA, MIN -- played 24 uneventful games with the Suns in 2014-15)
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (UFA, BKN -- if you consider him a PF -- some rumors that the Suns have expressed interest)
Trey Lyles (RFA, DEN -- DEN has extended qualifying offer)

Portis signed with the Knicks.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson is a 2/3, not a 4. Not even close to a 4.

Hell no to Tolliver.

The rest might be of interest.

RFA Kleber!!!!

RFA Kleber!!!!

I thought he had re-signed with the Mavs.

 

[Raindog]

Bring back Bender?

 

[1Sun]

Bring back Bender?

Please no. I would rather take a flyer on Frank Kaminsky.

 

[elindholm]

Bring back Bender?

No thank you.

Faried played well for Houston last year. Wouldn’t mind him here in a backup role

Plus the make-up of this team is starting to look a bit soft (intelligent and likeable players, but mostly soft). We could use some more toughness and edge.

The ONLY thing about Bender, is his game is similar to Saric, that it would be almost the same PF.

 

[Chaplin]

PFs
JaMychal Green
Maxi Kleber - RFA
Noah Vonleh

Centers
Willie Cauley-Stein - RFA
DeMarcus Cousins
Richaun Holmes
Frank Kaminsky
Enes Kanter
Nerlens Noel
Kyle O'Quinn
Daniel Theis
Ivica Zubac - RFA


I think Vonleh and maybe Kaminsky are my #1 choices.

Nope. They resigned Powell. Kleber is still available

 

[Folster]

Bring back Bender?

I wouldn't mind bringing him back for a year. Maybe Saric can help him.

I like Trey Lyles and Kenneth Faried off that list in that order.

I wouldn't mind bringing him back either, but not as the first backup PF off the bench.

Except that Saric doesn't throw the ball out of bounds and miss layups by 4 feet.

I was thinking Bender would be the back up....

 

[Proximo]

Noah Vonleh, or Faried sound good to me

Yup. Or Lyles if he somehow gets renounced.

 

[SunsTzu]

I'd like Kleber but I think the Mavs match anything reasonable. I guy I'd be interested in is Cheick Diallo. Has already been productive in a limited role and has room to grow if we can get him locked in on a friendly contract.

 

[Yuma]

I am not sure really who to want because ALL those guys had big games against the Suns! Our front line was so bad EVERYONE looked good against us!

Holmes is going to the Kings, so that door is officially closed.

Yeah 5 mil a year. A couple bigs today going in that price range. We will see him in Sac Town with Corey Joseph.

Kings with a lot of activity. Sad see Holmes go.

I think Baynes is a downgrade personally.
