  1. believe 6/29 is the deadline. i am under the impression that KD will sign a 2 year extension at some point this summer, so I'd be fine with giving Fred a 3 year deal to match the time that KD will have on his deal. 3 years, $70ish million sounds about right.
  2. I can't figure out if we used the MLE to resign Adams or not. If we didn't, that could be used to add another valuable piece.
  3. lol the heat wanted him but didn't want to trade anyone on their team it seems: The Heat made multiple offers for Durant but ultimately turned down the opportunity to place Jaime Jaquez Jr., Nikola Jovic, Haywood Highsmith, the No. 20 pick and other draft assets in a deal, sources said. https://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/45561747/sources-suns-trading-kevin-durant-rockets-blockbuster-deal
  4. also kept the 2027 and 2029 phoenix first round picks.
  5. if the Suns want a pick in this year's draft as part of the return for KD, you'd think a trade would be agreed to within the next day or so...
  6. i have watched a lot of gold cup games, but missed the Canada game last night. prior to that, I had thought they and Panama had looked like the two best teams in the tournament. that was a very surprising result.
  7. i saw someone said 3:00 on twitter. who knows if that is accurate or not. $9.95 please.
  8. i have to be reading this wrong. is it your implication that the only spots we're set up for in the future are QB and the kicking game?
  9. yep - i remember how bleak things were around here right after the 4th of July last year. We all saw how that turned out.
  10. it feels like the tea leaves are pointing towards KD going to San Antonio. if that's the case, what would you guys think about doing something like one of the below trades for Derrick White? Brooks + Whitmore + #10 + another premium pick or two or Jabari + Landale +one more premium pick + 1-2 non-premium picks It's hard to really know what type of pick compensation is adequate in today's market, but White is under contract for 3 more years + a player option after that and would be 34 at the time his deal expired. He'd be a solid veteran player who can shoot and defend and has won before.
  11. Things will be going 1000mph for any QB who is brought in under the circumstances it would require for a backup qb to play in Columbus. Might has well have that be someone with college experience if it comes to that. After that game though, there should be plenty of opportunities for Owens to get reps and build confidence in the remainder of the non-conference slate.
  12. If the Rockets trade for KD he will most likely sign a 2 year extension upon being traded - so it's really 3 years of KD. according to Shams, the Suns have been talking to Houston, Miami, and Minnesota the most, but KD has no interest in going to Minnesota:
  13. the only page of this thread i have read over the past several weeks is this one, so i'm sure something along similar lines has already been posted, but here is my ideal schedule template: week 1 - home game against someone from the MAC, AAC, Mountain West, or Sun Belt week 2 - home/away against a big time BIG or ACC team (or Notre Dame) week 3 - home game against someone from the MAC, AAC, Mountain West, or Sun Belt week 4 - bye then 9 conference games.
  14. the Adams re-signing is fantastic and also takes away the need to draft a center with the #10 pick if we keep it. jalen green + dillon brooks + #10 pick for KD is an easy move to make if phoenix will take it. i'd put that on the table and tell me to let me know by draft day. I'd probably let them choose between the #10 this year or their 2027 first if that made a difference, but they only get one pick and i'd do everythign i could to ensure it wasn't the 2029 pick.
  15. ok, i'll admit it. i haven't followed recruiting super closely yet for this year, but i had been under the prior assumption that a guy name Sam Roseborough from Florida was a white guy.
  16. i've noticed a lot of that as well. i want the rockets to trade for KD and think it would significantly raise their ceiling for the next couple of years. however, i am not interested in handing over anything that is above fair market value in return for him. if the suns (and KD) are more interested in what another team offers, that's that. the Rockets are not in a position where they have to make a move to try and win big over the next couple of years. they can simply run it back and try again next summer if necessary.
  17. the game definitely swung when he entered the game in the 2nd quarter. up to that point, it looked like okc was gonna cruise.
  18. what a fun fucking team the Pacers are.
  19. i'd be fine with trading #10 this year and a future pick to move up.
