    If the rumors about Phili's backup big are true(sims)

    Then I expect D-Mo to get moved for Dragic by trade deadline.

    Makes too much sense.

    would rather trades jones if he comes back and keep dmo at backup 4.. henry sims as backup 5. or vice versa. dmo is a top 4 defensive player in the post.

    Why do we have to wait to the deadline why don't we move him now and give Dragic and Smith as much time to gel.

    DMO Capela Canaan K-papa and pick for Dragic/Plumlee

    We get roster spot and Dragic

    Put pressure on Phoenix and might not have to give up as much. Could also be Phoenix wanting to see which way they go from 8th. Up or down. Sellers or buyers.

    I am 100% positive that Morey wants to hold on to D-Mo.

    The longer the Suns wait, the less value that they will get.

    The more losses the Suns acquire the less likely Goran signs a MAX deal with a consistent 9th seed.

    If I am the Rockets, I give you DMo, Canaan, and the NO pick for Dragic/Gerald Green.

    But you know the Rockets would rather give up Jones. He doesn't have the backup center capabilities that D-Mo has.

    Can't give up Jones until he shows that he can still play quality Basketball!

    We played Sa Antonio on Christas for sure (remember Harden scoring like 16 points in the 4th, red jersey's). Idk if we played Memphis the next day, don't think so.

    I understand your logic...and I don't know what Morey thinks or wants but to me you don't wait or make DMO stop you from pairing Dragic with this Group... dMo improved yes and he gots moves yes but he will still get murdered by the top 6 PFs in the West....Smith fills a huge defensive hole at the 4 all we need now is Dragic to take a load of pressure off James "the MVP" Harden.

    Needless to say we get Plumlee and Jones backing up the 5 and 4 spot

    I'm pretty sure we followed up our X-Mas Day win at San Antonio last season with a loss at Utah.

    Do you think Morey would trade T Jones to the 76ers or something? I can see it happening.

    Nope, he was right, we won against San Antonio on 25th, then we beat Memphis on 26th, NOLA on 28th, n then we lost to OKC on December, 29th.

    Ah, maybe I'm thinking of the first win at San Antonio last year. That might've been in late November.
