[QUOTE=wagexslave]Suns can sign Humphries to play starting PF and have Morris as the 2nd string and Frye will be irrelevant at the 3rd string, so we wont have to worry about him bringing us down.[/QUOTE]
Yea but for some reason Gentry has a huge infatuation with frye so I think the only way to end it is by getting frye off the team. You make a good point but I could easily see gentry flipping it around and humphries becomes our third guy.

I've been thinking it's always possible we can include Frye and Brooks and draft picks as part of a package for the Eric Gordon sign and trade. Aaron Brooks is a solid PG, but is the odd man out with the new lineup. The Hornets could use another good PG and a PF. Frye's jumpshooting can work since they will have Davis to do the real big man work. They just don't fit in here right now.

Re: Suns sign Dragic 4yr/$34M
Amnesty Childress for sure. Frye can be used off the bench and he has improved his inside game. Morris looked good, hopefully his game improves in the offseason and he can be our starter.

Sometimes i like to delve into the minds of retards, inquisitive mind and all, so i got to ask... what do the Knicks have to do with this?

Re: Suns sign Dragic 4yr/$34M
The Suns fans are literally acting like they acquired Dwight Howard and Deron Williams... Talk about overreactions from a fan-base. Eric Gordon is an injury prone ball stopper. Not worth the max at all. Dragic is a good player, but some are acting like he is a top 5 PG.
Did i mention the 1st round picks you got will almost certainly be in 25-30 region? Not exactly a place where you get immediate talent to improve your team. Most guys picked in that area of the draft don't even last in the NBA.
Have they made some solid moves? Yes. But Suns fans are acting like Knicks fans right now... :confusedshrug:

On behalf of the Suns fans, sir, I believe we are excited because the Post Amare' era brought us Childress, Warrick & Hedo. The post Nash era has brought in some decent young talent and some flexibility. I don't know of any Suns fans that think we're going to be a good team, we're just excited we didn't sign shit for large sums of money.
Re: Suns sign Dragic 4yr/$34M
Are you mad i just brought you Suns fans back down to earth...? You guys look like a 2011 Houston Rockets roster, and call me crazy but that's not something you guys should be jumping for joy about. It's barely above average.
Getting those picks is nothing special at all and the Lakers knew that. Like i said they will be anywhere from 25-30 and your delusional if you think your going to get someone with those picks that will make you a contender.
Realism. It hurts sometimes, but i was just laughing at some of the Suns fans reactions.

That's absolutely fair. Your team did get better, and i see you guys as a fringe playoff team. I was just saying some Phoenix fans are drastically overrating these moves.

What Phoenix fans are overrating these moves? Most of us are saying they're good moves and the team will finally be young and we're excited to see them play. I haven't seen one Suns fan act like we're going to be instant contenders or anything like that. We're just excited that our front office is actually trying to make some decent moves for the first time in a long time, is there anything wrong with that? :confusedshrug:

a couple seasons ago we signed Childress and Warrick to big cash to put them on the bench. if you had look back and see moves the suns had make in the off seasons over the last 5 years, I'm pretty sure you can't help but feel excited for us here. And nope like he said, no one is overrating theses moves here. It's just finally spending the right money on the right players. We need a point we brought back Dragic, we got Beasley for cheap, and the management actually showed effort in getting Gordon, a targeted face for this franchise now that Nash is gone. Making moves to get younger to go further, yes Suns fans are excited. but for good reasons.

Re: Suns sign Dragic 4yr/$34M
Suns fans will see far more polished Dragic. He looks fantastic at running different sets. Plays with a ton of poise and maturity that he did'nt have prior to his trade to Houston. Best of luck to the Dragon in Phoenix.

A franchise and their franchise player with mutual respect and high regards for one another. Steve Nash will be missed, but Suns fans can be proud.

I'm glad he loves our signings and he's correct. It is a better fit.
I want to see him in a Suns uni as badly as he wants to himself. :bowdown:
