    Paul maybe getting traded to the Suns. Probably for the 10h overall pick. I like the trade for both teams personally. The up and coming Suns would be the perfect place for Paul to make his final push for a Championship and could be the last piece t make the Suns legit contenders from what we saw them do in the bubble. Not sure if its something Paul would be interested in though, I heard he is only interested in the Knicks and the Lakers but that sounds like media BS.

    According to ESPN’s trade machine, Rubio & Oubre gets it done financially and seems like the easiest route. Like you said I’m sure OKC would want #10 as well. I think that’s an excellent haul for OKC. How good would that Phoenix team be? Depends on CP3’s health. But they would for sure be relevant again.

    Suns hopes Oubre & Rubio is enuff . They want to keep that 10th pick. I was kind of surprised when I read Oubre wanted out. Phoenix is where he really blossomed .

    Yeah just what we need, two more guys who can’t shoot. I guess we’re hoping Gallinari, SGA & Schroder can score 30ppg each? Add that on top of OKC selecting a random 35 year old kid to be the head coach, when so many good ones were available that they let slip by. Yeah, I’m about to give up on OKC, it’s like they’re trying to kill the team on purpose.

    Suns are not giving up the 10th pick in order to take on CP3’s salary. CP3 for Kelly Oubre & Ricky Rubio is a good deal for both teams.

    CP3 is worth every dollar if he can stay relatively healthy. He’s still a top-10 player and maybe one of 5 or 6 guys who can join almost any roster and automatically make them a competitive team. Whether he can stay healthy is a big question, though. In this draft, it’s 50-50 whether the #10 pick is going to be anything more than an average role player. So I wouldn’t hesitate to give up the pick. Oubre is the sticking point that would make me stop and think. He’s only 25 and coming off his best season, and is a 19-ppg scorer. Those don’t grow on trees.
