    I know Gary Payton is close to re-signing with the Celtics but what do you think about the Suns possibly making a last second run for him. He is an experienced back-up point guard that I think would be perfect for this team. He wants to win a title, and Phoenix gives the Glove a great chance to do just that.

    He can also teach Barbosa the ropes of defense in his stay. What better guys to learn from if you?re a young point guard than Steve Nash, and Gary Payton. I think this would be a pretty good pickup if we can get him.

    Your thoughts?

    Get him in straight away. Will give Nash some much needed rest and will bolster our bench

    Getting GP for any team would be a nice pickup and seeing him on the Suns would be very nice for our bench. I agree CourtKing about him being somewhat of a mentor to upcoming players like Barbosa.

    I think he'd be a decent pickup for you guys as long as he'd understand his role. He needs to realize he's no longer #1 and will have to play behind Nash. He'd be a good addition IF he accepted the role without complaints.
