    Nurkic goes to Charlotte - per Shams

    Martin is a defensive-minded wing, kind of in Okogie-mode with less athleticisim but more IQ. Miciic has some playmaking skills and he is OK as a 3rd string PG. Both will be gone after this summer. The Hornets have 3 2026 2nd rounders: their own, DEN and GSW. If we got their own (unlikely)...

    Nurkic goes to Charlotte - per Shams

    It is the 2026 1st rounder which is a heavily swapped (with ORL, MEM or WAS) one already.

    Suns @ Thunder Wednesday game thread 2-5-2025

    OKC is obviously at another level but this game is a good indication what the Suns will be capable of if they trade Durant for picks/prospects.

    OT: The trade deadline watch thread. 02/06/25

    Yes, he was an emergency PF sometimes, but was even less qualified to do so as Durant is. Dunn and Butler as a F combo is tough but I'm not convinced at all that Butler's main motivation of getting traded to Phoenix is playing lockdown-defense. Actually probably the opposte. I can easily see...

    OT: The trade deadline watch thread. 02/06/25

    Yes, he is not a typical frontcourt player but still is our best due to his height and shot-blocking ability. That's why he is the Suns' starting PF. He would be traded for a SF in Butler. BTW, Butler recently used his "fire" to destroy the Heat as much as possible because they were not willing...

    OT: The trade deadline watch thread. 02/06/25

    Geez, trading Durant for Butler (and some picks) would be the most stupid thing even at Suns' standards. Durant is a better player and s our only potent frontcourt player while Butler would just create even bigger logjam at the wings. Since our 1st rounders are gone, this would be a surefire...

    OT: The trade deadline watch thread. 02/06/25

    I hope that the Suns are not stupid enough to add a 1sz rounder to the swap of Nurkic/Valanciunas. Valanciunas might or might not be a better player than Nurkic, he is cheaper for sure but this is not worth a 1st rounder.

    I highly doubt that the Suns will trade Durant, since Ishbia still thinks that he (Durant) leads the Suns to the championship.

    Suns @ Trail Blazers Monday game thread 2-3-2025

    I'm not. It is a great thing that a recent 2nd rounder is part of the Suns rotation partially because he has this shot (at least).

    Shams: De’Aaron Fox traded to Spurs

    No, the opposite. The Kings got Lavine and 1st rounders for Fox while the Bulls got a 1st rounder (their own, protected 1-10 in 2025, 1-8 in 2026 and 2027, if not conveyed, a 2nd rounder in 2028) for Lavine. Since his value must be similar (minus the NTC) to Beal's, it gives us hope of moving...

    2024-2025 Around the NBA Thread

    Losing Camara is (very) painful, he is already a quite good 3 and D combo F and definitely has potential as well. He would create a formidable defensive duo with Dunn at the forward spots.

    2024-2025 Around the NBA Thread

    Yes, and he is way overpaid and I just don't see the IQ required to mature.

    I don't want Stewart. He is not tough, he is strupid.

    Where will Jimmy Butler end up? 2025 edition - (The Answer is Golden State)

    Good point, but the Suns that time already had a great young core in Stoudemire-Marion-Joe Johnson.

    A lof of teams do, IMO, his contract will expire only the summer of 2026, so the Kings did react in time.

    The Sixers do in a heartbeat, since this trade makes no sense for them.

    Big blow for the Hawks, he was their best player.

    OT: The trade deadline watch thread. 02/06/25

    Sure but if these players will be kept, Orlando has very few assets left to trade for Fox. The package of Anthony Black and some mid 1st rounders doesn't net Fox.

    Agreed, except that I didn't really like him in college either.

    Great news, since they can do it directly with the Bulls without including the Suns and Jimmy Butler.

    Where will Jimmy Butler end up? 2025 edition - (The Answer is Golden State)

    The 2032 pick won't freed up over the summer since the 2031 pick is already traded.

    I see absolutely no point of trading for Patrick Williams. He is a less mobile and effective version of Dunn with njury issues and a huge contract.

    :), you are harsh, but unfortunately for Lavine that is not far at all from an accurate scouting report.
