This Trade Idea Completely FIXES Suns Center Rotation..
this next one is like a in my opinion win winwin trade and it’s absolutely a gorgeous one I’m going to be real hurt if y’all hate this trade okay and this is the type of trade I think if James Jones pulls off it would get him out of the dogghouse with a lot of people including myself yeah and it kind of comes across as a fleecing but I I I think it’s doable I really do I think we gave everybody enough here some would say and I think the Sun need two centers if they get rid of nerk which they’re likely to do for financial purposes let’s say 50-50 chance to get rid of him this gives the Suns two centers one a young big body replacement who’s a Bruiser you get your rebounding and defense and lob threat in Nick Richards for five million then you get Kelly olenick who who I hate personally I can’t stand him bro It’s Pat Beverly and Kelly olenic I believe is how it works for me as far as hated players however this man averages four assists a game you know who else averages four assists a game nurkic so you replace that passing cut and dry and he’s a stretch big so you get a you get a new center rotation of a stretch and a big young big body Bruiser who does that sort of thing that nerk does you get out of nurkic his deal and you save $7 million that’s and it creates an exception for you later down the road the Hornets get two second round picks and NS the Raptors get nurkic and the Suns first why would the Suns do this well one you get two centers that you like and trust you get a stretch Center that you can use in a Lin and if you need the bruis you have Nick Richards all right you create an exception by trading ner because then you you save you save salary yes the Raptors are looking at this point to rebuild they get a first round pick and the Hornets get a player that they can control for three years and they’re going to get to second round picks because they are also in a position to acquire draft capital and rebuild so this doesn’t fix the point guard remedy that we think we should do but this also gives us two bigs that we can trust and we don’t have to worry about Drew Eubanks playing because we all agree that that was an issue of him being your backup center and getting absolutely worked a lot of times and so I personally like this trade because one you get the two the two players that you can use you like and the sneaky thing is it creates that exception for later down the road thank you this gives you a trade exception for The Following Season plus $7 million I like this trade because it helps us remedy that I would much rather trust Nick Richard to guard bigs and oenk to also operate in a booten holster offense more so than Eubanks man and at even at this point nerkish because we all know that nerkish isn’t the uh stretch big type and then the trade exception and the $7 million you bring back that’s 7 million to play with at some point once you get everything taken care of on the roster and you get under the apron if you’re able to I don’t know if you’d be able to cuz this doesn’t save quite enough but it gets you closer man and the sun’s got to start inching back towards reality while building the team for more success and I just think this does both gives you two players on two years that you can control like I said and then next year again if you feel like you need to move on from a Durant or a B Durant will probably be the one you can also include these guys in that deal as well so there’s always that there’s just a lot of positives to this trade not just in immediate impact but future impact

Resign ish wainwright he’s our culture
It's not a HORRIBLE trade, but I would go get Embid and Jokic instead
Kevin Durant
Devin Booker
Bradley Beal
Nick Richards
Kelly Olynyk
Royce O’Neale
Grayson Allen
Eric Gordon
I’m not excited about next year like I have been in recent years. 😢
I miss the run we had where every year we had an above average fan favorite center coming or going. Mcgee, frank kaminsky, Aaron baynes, Biyombo, jock, etc.
Seems like we don’t have any options this off season
Resign back Dario Saric & Aaron Holiday off the bench
I say don’t trade the 1st and not just bc I want bronny. First of all 99% of ppl would prob think nurk is a better starting center than Kelly and if the raptors want a pick the hornets should be the one giving them it since the raptors are receiving nothing from the hornets. And also there’s prob a center in the draft available for us that has way more potential than Kelly
Hornets receiving 2 srp and little for just nick Richards in this trade send unfair…
this deal can’t happen. we can’t aggregate salaries
Feels like a lateral move but costs us a 1st and 2nd; Kelly is 33 and only shot 33% from 3 so only marginally better than Nurk
This trade is not worth it
No no no 😂
been wathcing you for hours now, good stuff😁 😁
No chance I’m giving up a first round pick for olynik and richards…. There is almost no chance this makes them better imo
