Just became available from Brooklyn. 24 years old, elite defender, can score points in bunches. If he's the right price, he could be what Turner is not.

He was ours to begin with.

Perfect Olshey type of pickup, but depends on what offers he can get.

Scalma · Jun 17, 2019

I think we’re set on wings that can’t shoot.

Since when can he score in bunches?

Since he was on the grapes aisle in Piggy Wiggly's.

Seriously, I like RHJ, but we need shooting at every position, which is one of the reasons we let Davis go.

no thanks. What does he do better than Turner?

TJ Warren, otoh, is interesting. I dig his contract too.

His shooting is so improved. Can be our mainstay 3.

Defense sucks though. I'm not saying I wouldn't want him but having a bad wing defender isn't ideal.

Honestly, I kinda like Jackson too. He was a year older than the guys in his class, but I like his skillset. He needs a better environment.

I’ve been on the Warren train and Jackson wouldn’t be a bad reclamation project.

I liked Jackson in the draft but can't stand his game now that I've seen him play. Terrible basketball IQ and a couple of off court issues. I'd be surprised if Olshey was interested in someone like that.

Another indication that BK has something up their sleeve. This clears his caphold and opens about 7 mil more space.

They’re gonna land Irving and KD imo.

Suns don’t have any bigs under contract next season outside of Ayton. Give em Leonard and our pick for Warren and sign KOQ for the minimum.

They already got Bridges. Makes sense that they'd move one of these other guys. Wonder if we can get Warren for capsapce and our pick.

The Suns already have the 32nd pick and are looking to trade the #6 pick for a more established PG. I'm not sure if they really would give much value to the 25th pick.

Having extra assets is never a bad thing.

That's assuming the Suns think the 25th pick is a better asset than Warren.

Plus $24M.

His contract isn't really a negative one though. Sure, the extra year would give teams pause but I don't think it kills his value that much especially if he produces.

Not only Bridges but they have Oubre too. Bridges needs to start.
I sent Warren and Jackson out in the Mock Trade thread as well.

Scalma · Jun 17, 2019

Warren and Jacksons contracts together equal one Evan Turner hehehehe

BigGameDamian · Jun 17, 2019

Does 4 years 72 million sound good?

Only if there aren’t any opt outs.

I find it hilarious that anyone can claim to know this information a full two weeks before teams can even speak to free agents.

You honestly think agents don’t start negotiating until July 1?

Btw the only way I see this is if we lose Aminu/Moe.

I'm saying it would be stupid for anyone involved to admit interest in a free agent before July 1st, especially if they were tampering which would be the case if we were talking to his agent.

Not saying this guys sources are legit or anything, but it would be pretty naive to think teams and agents aren't talking with respect to players and contracts. Sure free agency doesn't start until 7/1 (or is it 6/30 night now?), but why do you think so many deals are reported 1 minute after midnight?
