So we are interested in Drummond, Okoro, Finney-Smith and Royce O'Neale.
I like specially Okoro. He is exactly "an athletic wing" that can help us on defense being good enough on offense.

Finney-Smith can go f- himself. Guy always runs his mouth too much about the Suns.

Not going to lie when I first read it I thought he was making a joke combining Okoro and Okogie into one guy.. I forgot Chuma Okeke existed.sunsbg wrote:Fo-Real wrote:Okeke please.
Why ? His shooting numbers make Okogie look like an all star.

But yeah he seems a little redundant with the other borderline dude who we wish shot better off the bench.

What if Finney Smith is against F—- himself because it’s immoral and quite impossible to do so physically and mentally?
And while Phoenix has indicated a willingness to add Josh Okogie into a package of Nassir Little and two second-round picks for Bridges, sources said, Charlotte remains hopeful it can generate a first-round pick in return for Bridges.
If not, Charlotte now has the upcoming cap space to re-sign Bridges, and getting the swingman on a multi-year deal would surely increase his trade value next season.
The fact Bridges is playing this 2023-24 campaign on a one-year qualifying offer not only affords Bridges veto power in any trade, but dealing him elsewhere would squander Bridges’ Bird rights, preventing any team that acquired him before Thursday to re-sign him this summer if it is going to be over the salary cap on June 30. So there may even be stronger options for Charlotte to move Bridges as a sign-and-trade candidate this summer as well.
Okogie has veto power in any trade to protect his early bird rights, just throwing it out there.

I would hate to lose Okogie, I like him on the rotation.

This is a situation where Jones may be at his best…. doing nothing… which is truly the safest thing to do. The King of Ineptitude.
I don’t like the %s when Junkyard gets to thinking
But… I can see theMadMatter jumping in and forcing a Bridges deal. We sure won’t be too hard to outbid in any deal if it comes to that.
Perhaps we have the inside Spartan track to make it happen. Read something where Bridges can veto trades? Right up our alley.
Our rusty bag of nails isn’t going to produce a sack of shiny new screws anyways. Bridges is certainly the most talent we can obtain for the squalor we have to offer.
I’ve no opinion on his past. Doesn’t matter. Kind of think everybody gets a second chance if they approach things right. That’s the sales pitch wherever he goes.
PS… after reading the bird right scenario above… i doesn’t make any sense to get him if he is gone next yr… other than a salary dump of Little. Not surprised they’d just sluff off JO in the process. Eventually, these minimum wagers wil>...
Again…. Just do nothing Jones.
