    It’s not a transaction allowed in the NBA.

    It’s not a Jalen thing. It’s not a Jabari thing. It’s an Ime thing.

    Me personally, Id rather keep Green and trade FVV but I don’t think that is what they will do.

    If Green was content to let shots come to him abd focus on catch and shoot……

    Sengun
    Smith
    Durant
    Green
    Amen

    Could be very dangerous.

    Keep it simple Stone and Ime… offer FVV/Jock Landale, Cam Whitmore, and #10….

    I’d rather keep Whitmore. We still haven’t seen what we have in him. Just give them another pick instead of adding him in the deal.

    That's a little pollyana....

    Tari is a rental without a big extension. Either way his trade value is either negated by lack of years under contract or too many dollars...

    He might be wirth a first with his injury history. Cam has maturity issues that is clearly no secret around the league.

    They have value, but multiple firsts is a little over the top....

    The sun's are valuing KD like he's still a superstar in the league, where as LeBron would get a big package. Problem with Durant is he's injury prone, so if previous poster mentioned, if you throw in key pieces and Durant out for extended period.

    Is Sengun and Amen going to keep you afloat every night in a tuff west?, with say the like of Green or Jabarii gone. To me it's over paying for injury prone has been

    Yet the risk may or may not pay off

    . Many say it could.

    This would be stupid for the Rox to let get out. Hopefully, this is just psyops by the Suns trying to get more assets.

    Butler had as much to do with his trade as the Heat. Sometimes (James Harden) players force their way out. I agree, running it back is absolutely idiotic.

    I agree that we should keep Cam, but we have to send out someone. We have too many wings as it is. I'd rather send out Tari than Cam.

    I agree, but I think PHX will value Cam over Tari mainly on the untapped potential from Cam.

    If the Rockets aren't getting KD, then that means Durant WANTS to go to Minnesota. Really???

    KD should’ve came here in 2016 like he was supposed to. Would love KD on this team now but the dude is almost 40

    I could see KD wanting to play along with Bari, JG, Alpi and Amen. Doesn’t he workout with in the summer? He’d be a better mentor than FVV and Brooks.
