Suns wants to deal...

KingsInBrazil

G-League
According to rumors they are listening to trade proposals on anyone but Nash and might want to shake their roster... but I was thinking about if they add a proven all-around player to their mix would that be enough for them to start contending again?

What I have in mind would be a simple tade based on 2 players... John Salmons and Leandrinho Barbosa..

Kings trade Douby who isnt doing anything to the club and probably wont be missed, I dont think he'll ever get any better either and Salmons whos a proven all-around player like Diaw who did wonders for the Suns few seasons ago... I think the Suns miss a piece like Salmons since hes thousand miles more talented than Matt Barnes... Salmons could even start at SF for them or play some Point when Nash sits... Hill could come off the bench bringing his experience...

Suns trade Barbosa and a 1st round pick this year (Do they have one? If not just forget about this topic lol). Leandro isnt a point guard and will never replace Nash... but hes a terrific scorer, can spread the floor, hes still young, one of the fastest players in the league and if our bigs continue to develop and start pulling double teams Leandrinho could hit treys all night long... and of course one more 1st round pick on a rebuilding team is never enough...

thoughts?
 
uhhh... pass.

The money is just too much of an issue with this one. I think we are trading just to stop hemorrhaging money now. That's just the way I think a team has to position itself now. Build for the future, spend later.
 
I dunno, Since we are going to be running the princeton offense, it might be nice to have two backcourt gunners like Leandro and Martin.Plus that is a vey fast backcourt, for cuts and what not. I think I would be down for a Barbosa trade. How much would it hurt our Salary Cap situation in 2010 does anyone know?
 
so barbosa would be coming off the bench? who would start at sf? garcia? pass... i like barbosa but since he isnt really a pg and we'd still have beno its a waste of time...
 
I really don't understand why they're looking to trade Amare if they want to tear it all down. If they're looking to deal him and Shaq, then I think they should at least field offers for Nash as well.
