This pick could very well be 1 or 2 in the draft so it would take alot for the Suns to give up that pick. But if we could entice them with a package of say Nate, Balkman, and our # 1 (via Bulls) for Marcus Banks (4 years left on his contract)and # 1 pick.

The only reason the Suns would do it is that Balkman & Nate fit in within their system and a high # 1 may not be affordable to them

they have the hawks #1 pick for this upcoming draft??? No protection for the hawks? That is much worse than the Curry Trade then. Diaw and potentially Oden or Durant? Durant would fit in nicely as a replacement for Marion.

I could be mistaken, but I think the protection could have run out. This is from the Joe Johnson deal and that was from a few years ago.

Per Nbadraft.net

Phoenix receive a first round pick from Atlanta (Joe Johnson trade 081905) The Suns will receive Atlanta's own first round pick no later than the 2008 NBA Draft. Protected through No. 3 in 2007 and has no protection in 2008.

You think that makes the Suns good.....it gets even better for them:

Phoenix receives a first-round pick from Boston. (Rajon Rondo trade 062806) via Boston receives a 2007 Cleveland (top 10 protected) first-round pick. (Jiri Welsh trade 022405)

Posiibly 3 first rounders in a very deep draft

Thanks for the info, I didn't know that.

So I guess there's no chance for us to get the 1 or 2 pick in the draft (w/o the Bulls taking it from us of course) - oh well.

3 #1 picks in this draft. they should've taken marcus williams last year and saved the MLE.

they no longer have colangelo as d'antoni is wearing both hats right now. but if they get #4 - then they'll take noah if he's there.
