    Looking at that list makes me think Capela won't get that offer sheet. No team's going to waste time on something less than 20mill per. Morey would certainly match.

    looks more and more that Clint Capela is trade bait.

    Sounds like they need Eric Gordon on that squad

    And that's precisely why they're the Suns.

    It was suggested as non-guarenteed so Ariza wouldn't have an option, the Suns would. That's why he'd never do it.

    Yes, because it's not likely to happen and he could end up in a bad position.

    He'd get $15M next year but what about the year after? He's under contract to Phoenix so he misses out on Free Agency in the summer of '19. Now let's say PHO young guys look good in the '19 preseason. The Suns could simply cut Ariza since he's non guarenteed and he stops getting paid and he's missed out on free agency. Who'll have the money and the inclination to pay him at that point?

    I don't get why he wouldn't. He is getting his 15 either way. He went for the bag. Unless you are saying he absolutely wants to get out of the Suns in year 2, I don't see why he would not.

    Your ignorance on achilles injuries among NBA players furthers your own delusion. Educate yourself and come back. Tired of r****ds infecting this board.

    Minnesota says no because Jimmy Butler is an all star and a great 3 and D player. The end.

    Who says no? Probably everyone in the Minnesota front office.

    Fair point, but if the rumors that he's "fed up" with KAT and plans on walking after this season isn't that a decent haul for him?

    No, I'm saying that the Suns will likely have a better use for that money in a year so they can just cut him and he's owed no money. Worst case for him is that he could get cut after free agency so he ends up with no salary and most of the FA money is gone.
