Let's be realistic. Suns aren't getting Lillard, Ainge wants a Brooklyn ransom for Rozier, and MJ is delusional and won't trade Kemba for anyone not named Booker. So....

Let's be realistic and become as efficient as possible.

Suns trade 1st round pick owed by Bucks, 2nd round pick in 2019 draft.

Nets trade Spencer Dinwiddie

Nets get something for a quality player that will leave for more $ after the season. They already have Russell so they can afford to trade him.

Suns can likely resign him and will have cap space to do so.

Dinwiddie is one of the most efficient 2 way pgs in the league, he's still progressing upward as a player and immediately makes the Suns a better team.

You're right, Lillard, Rozier, and Walker probably aren't realistic targets considering how little Phoenix is making available (you can't protect your 5 most valuable players and try to trade for a high end target) .

That said, I really like the fit of Dinwiddie in Phoenix. It would be nice if he was a better outside shooter, but that can come on over time.

Patrick Beverley is the latest rumour, Suns could probably have him for that Bucks pick and he would be a great fit next to Booker.

Nice under the radar player in Dinwiddie. Would be a nice pick up for Phoenix. Nets get two picks. Probably say yes.

Good trade rumor.

Yeah, Beverley would be a good fit too. They seem like similar players overall. Dinwiddie fits their timeline a bit better.

Dinwiddie is much younger than Beverley. Also, Beverley has been injury prone. He is good, but I would much rather have Dinwiddie. If Nets balk, then Beverley could be a short term solution to their PG problem. They could also look at Shrouder or Mills as short term solution as well, but Dinwiddie should be their target.

Bmiller- Beverly can mentor heart, defense and a pro attitude.

The Nets heving draft picks. Could this be real?

No, nice trade. Helps both teams.

The Nets still have Russel, so trading Dinwiddie, for picks would be a smart move.

I’m a big Beverley fan, but Dinwiddie makes more sense. Pat is a bulldog, but he’s not a true PG, more a combo guard. Trade does make sense in either case though, the Nets and Clips have the guard to spare, and are both looking for picks.

IMO, either Dinwiddie and Beverely would be good additions to this Suns roster. However, it's more of a chance that PHX seriously pursies Beverely because of his defense, his veteran experience, and being able to be a part of a PG "rotation" with the untried kids Igor plans to use there next to Booker.
