    Woj says Indy is full rebuild. He’s young and cheap, but not a foundational piece, so I wonder if Oshae Brissett could be had. Only has one year left on his deal. With the clutter in the backcourt I’d probably trade someone like Keon for him, and I like Keon. But Brissett has legit wing size (6’8, 7’ wingspan)

    At the very least next season will be more entertaining.

    Yeah, I have my complaints, but also have some reasons for optimism. When all was said and done, I liked the BPA strategy of going for Sharpe, hoping to hit that HR, and I like that Dame liked it as well.

    Hart, Keon and a future first for Cam Johnson and Dario Saric.

    Salaries are nearly identical. Would Phoenix do this?

    I'm not doing a first and removing protections for Cam Johnson. That would be an Olshey level move.

    He's the hidden gem in Phoenix. Elite shooter, low usage high impact player who can defend.

    Save your picks and make a godfather move for someone that actually moves the needle.

    Lol i think you're sleeping on Cam. He's OG hidden in plain sight. Equal defender and a better shooter. And Phoenix isnt going to pay him in RFA next yr so i think he might actually be available. Check out his numbers.

    I know how good he is. Neither him or OG are worth two unprotected firsts.

    Never said unprotected. I said one pick. Make it lotto protected.

    Cam is worth what Neil gave up for RoCo - two 1RP with various protections.

    He’s the glue this team is missing at SF.

    Cam is decent, but he was Suns 6th best player. Hart is a signifcantly better player than him

    Hes nowhere near the defender of OG.
    Theres a reason Suns will not over pay him

    This is kind of rough to read because Jalen Smith has more versatility where we need it and more growth potential than Payron.

    I think we'll probably get a presser on Tuesday.
