I'd also ask, what can the Suns get for Deandre Ayton or Crowder and filler plus picks.

A PGOTF would be huge now and later.

If you get rid of Ayton that leaves you with a massive hole in our front court because we already have a hole at PF.

I was looking at Beal but his numbers have been been going down the last few years.

We need a shot creator/distributor and I have no idea who that could be

ugh just wish he'd wait until after all-star to keep progressing. There's a huge difference when playing 5 on 5 versus going full bore in a real game.

The Nets are trying to expand the Kyrie Irving trade so it is not official.

Come on Suns. Dinwiddie and Finney-Smith are nice pieces.

Not sure why this is on this thread but it's because they want a player to play along KD to convince him to stay. Those pieces would still be part of a trade with likely some of those pieces going to say a Toronto for VanVleet. If the Suns became that 3rd team they would have to send something to the Nets they want.

It relates to the Nets roster tomorrow.

Hoping they’re more restricted than the last time he came back from injury and Monty played him 38 minutes against the Pelicans only to watch him miss the next game and then be out for more than a month the game after that.

Devin Booker is listed as PROBABLE.

Uncertain about availability of Spencer Dinwiddie and Dorian Finney-Smith for the Nets.

I am excited but I am nervous as well for Book. I am sure he will be fine but he can't get hurt again. Groin and hamstrings injuries are evil. His minutes will be limited so I just want to see him get his rhythm back.

Yeah. We don't need Devin to take over the star role immediately. As you said, ease back into the role and get his rhythm going.

Interesting. On Luke and Wolf they said Monty confirmed the Suns were just running all of Booker's plays using Bridges. So, he didn't change the offensive at all to accommodate Bridges. This is why I was a little worried about what would happen with Bridges once Book was back. Sounds like Bridges only opportunities to play the same role will be when Booker is on the bench.

Not buying it I bet Paul's the first one to the bench and a PG is not subbing in
