Would you guys trade Ariza for Bledsoe and Tucker? It gets them under the cap to sign Aldridge. They get a great small forward and can focus on a shooting guard to pair with Knight

all SEVEN of those teams are substantially better than whatever the Suns turn out to be with Aldridge. Imo, they will be battling Utah for #8
I'd consider that provided we can resign Brewer. We'd still have T-Jones as a tradeable asset. But I'd rather just try to get Tucker in a salary dump. Phoenix sounds like they just wanna unload the guy.
That's fine let him go to the suns. This knocks the mavs and blazers out of contention in the west while also keeping him from the Spurs. The Mavs loose everyone for nothing, Spurs loose Spliter for nothing and the Blazers loose their best player for bargain bin players. Honestly hope at this point DJ goes to Dallas which would cripple the Clips while also making the mavs a decent team but not a contender.
