VCU grad Bradford Burgess excited about ‘The Basketball Tournament’ ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Totally agree ... Tyson is the move Havent heard anything since Doc's riddle ... but i still see us moving Brewer + change to get Tyson Chandler as Dwight replacement PHX is trying to dump him and he would be ideal mentor for CCap Trezz and rook on finer points of defending the rim, boxing out, and running a great P&R His deal cheaper and shorter than what we just gave Gordon Noah also got benched last yr and still got $17.5M per Horford got $28M At those prices Tyson making $12-13M is almost a bargain If he can do for us what Bogut has been giving GS, I would love to see Tyson getiing 28-30 MPG as our new starting Center Maybe we could even expand the deal to include Bledsoe, assuming a 3rd team has what PHX wants? PG - Bledsoe PBev SG - Harden Gordon SF - Ariza Beasley PF - Anderson DMo C - Chandler Capela Not top 4 in West but prob scrapping w MEM PORT UTAH DAL for the #5-8 seed
So we traded for a center and an explosive point guard but we still have our players? Are you assuming pho will just dump Bledsoe ?
Why don't we bring in Amare too, then we can all visit at the nursing home together and play bingo before bedtime
I purposely left out Trezz, the rook, Dekker & Gentile since I'd assume the 10 I listed would not be involved, but some of these 4 would be for sure Just last year we got Ty Lawson for 4 non-rotation guys so it's not that crazy If PHX wanted Bev or Ariza, I'd still do it, but other moves would be needed by us obviously, and didn't want to get into more complicated scenarios We would get Bledsoe as means to facilitate dump by 3rd team of player PHX wants more than Bledsoe Greg Monroe makes the most sense Rumors about PHX being hot for him past 2 yrs before he signed w MIL Signing Dellavedova makes Bledsoe fit on Bucks less clear If Bucks would settle for 2 young prospects (hometown boy Dekker + rook big to groom) just to dump Monroe... And PHX would still swap Monroe for Bledsoe straight up, as rumored when both were RFA last summer ... Suns might also be happy just to save another $5M next 3 yrs by swaping Tyson for Brewer with their glut of young bigs and dearth of wings
Actually Bev makes sense as part of PG rotation w Delladova and we could throw in KJ as well Here is my 3way between Rockets, Suns & Bucks: HOU gets - PG Eric Bledsoe (3 yrs @ $14.5M) C Tyson Chandler (3 yrs @ $13M) PHX gets - C Greg Monroe (2 yrs @ $17.5M) SF Corey Brewer (2 yrs @ $7.5M) MIL gets - PG Pat Beverly (3 yrs @ $5.5M) SF KJ McDaniels (1 yr @ $3.3M) SF Sam Dekker (1 yr @ $1.7M) C Chinanu Onuaku We would net another $9M in salary, using up our remaining cap room We'd have to use bird rights to resign DMo, and we would basically be done Maybe Morey can still work a little cap magic to squeeze in Gentile? Get a 3rd string PG on vet min deal since Bledsoe & Gordon take all backcourt mins left after Harden ( maybe Jarrett Jack? ) Bucks save about $10-12M total by dumping Monroe, who they dont want Plus they get good backup to replace MCW and 3 young players to develop for cheap Suns save whopping $32M next 3 yrs just for dumping 2 guys they dont want For the trouble, they also get back a go-to scorer they have coveted for awhile I would like this lineup next year: PG Bledsoe Gordon Jack SG Harden Gentile SF Ariza Beasley PF Anderson DMo Harrell C Tyson Capela

Everyone is going to poop themselves when Mr. 31-13 starts with Ryno. I'm telling you, Motiejunas is the guy.
An Anderson/Motiejunas starting front line would probably be the worst defensive front line in the NBA. You can get away with questionable perimeter defenders with a strong effort to rotate and an anchor inside. Last year Howard took a huge step back defensively and it showed and effected everyone. I don't know how much Tyson has left, but he would qualify as an anchor if he is close to what he was.
We were winning 70 percent of our games with Jones and Donuts, and I am pretty sure that Jones might actually be worse defensively than Ryno. Definitely comparable.
