My Suns will suck again.

Living in Denver, hope that the Nuggets can either trade some of their three first rounders for an elite player (Love, Cousins, etc.) or get a top SG from the draft (Murray, Hield, etc.).

Same hope as every year in recent history: I'm just hopeful that little Jimmy Buss doesn't do anything incredibly stupid.

there are rumors they may trade Russell for a draft pick.. and i'm very pissed at that. I think Russell is the future.. he has all the potential in the world.

Word on the street for the past week is that not only are they staying at #2, they're also looking to move De'Angelo Russell for a top pick.

IMO, that needs to happen. He's burned too many bridges in the locker room.

Idk man, most of the lockerroom is open to be moved, he was young, and Nick Young was the dumbass telling a 19 kid grown people business.

Hope he somehow convinces Demar to sign there, but I'm not optimistic.

Eh, Blazers don't have a pick so no interest for me.

**dirk digler** · 06-20-2016, 01:12 PM

It is going to be an interesting off season with the 2 biggest question marks being what is KD and Lebron going to do.

GS\Miami are going to go hard at KD but I think he stays for 1-2 more years. I don't think there is much doubt that Lebron will stay. You don't just leave a team that just won a NBA championship.

Bundy as far your team goes your owner was apparently pissed last night and said they are going to be very aggressive. As I said in the game thread I think they will be back in the Finals next year. If I was them I would try as hard as possible to get KD but I would also try just as hard to get Hassan Whiteside. If they had a guy like that manning the middle they would have swept that series.

Bogut is better defensively than Whiteside. Also a much better playmaker. His absence was felt.

I want the Bulls to move rose and get Russell from LAL.

BWillie · 06-20-2016, 01:34 PM

Durant re-sign to OKC....plllleeassee please. I think GSW losing may actually help, a very small amt. I don't know why he would go anywhere else in the West myself. I could see Spurs I guess, but I would head out East if I was him.
