I'd rather have Ty Jerome. We're going to need someone to replace George Hill and possibly Malcolm Brogdon. Jerome makes more sense than Windler there.

That'd be a good fit, Carsen Edwards if he's on the board too. You think you guys are going to lose Hill, Brogdon, and Middleton?

No. We're definitely going to lose Hill but, there's a chance that both Brogdon and Middleton are back. I was thinking Jerome more for the back-up PG, George Hill role anyways. He'd be ideal for that.

Trust me, you don't want Jerome. I said it before the combine. And the combine proved me right.Ty was in last place in vertical and in the shuttle run. He is SOO  unathletic. His so called "intangibles" that worked in college will fail miserably in the NBA. Ty also has a shorter wingspan than height. He will be a huge liability on defense. Can't dunk at 6'5 and can't/won't be able to get to the rim.

On second thought, you guys need to draft Jerome.

Jerome and Guy should've both went back to school.

OK first off. I am happy for this mock. someone needs to step up in this thread and you did.

2nd - you giving Boston Herro at 14 means "we fightin.." hate that pick at 14. really like KZ and PJ is a good 22. 

If the draft fell this way, then give me Mfiondu Kabengele at 14 instead.

resilient basically nailed it but he's not really a great fit. And I get it, for a team that sucks as bad as the Suns we should just take BPA and I believe Culver would be that, it's just the fit. It's also the fact that I don't want to get younger...

??? (Tyler Johnson)
Devin Booker
Mikal Bridges
Kelly Oubre
Deandre Ayton

Find me a (good) vet PG, dammit.

DON"T shoot me. But what about Terry Rozier??

Meh. I wouldn't be mad but if 9 years of sucking led to us ending up with Terry Rozier as our franchise point guard...

The thing is I don't even have any realistic targets for them to go get. I'm just mad.

Trade #6, trade Warren, trade Jackson, go get something useful.

[DirtyDez]

I wouldn’t mind Culver for the fact that it means we wouldn’t be overpaying Oubre.  I’d rather Bridges be starting next to Book with Culver coming of the bench.  Randle or Mirotic at the 4.  

[11sanchez11]

long term I would start culver and booker at PG and SG. As a rookie he can play a small role as Booker's backup. 

Culver and Booker are both really good in the post and would be trouble for opposing PGs. now you would probably need a good passing pf to help with passing and ball movement but I think they would be an awesome backcourt. plus culver and mikal would be awesome defensively. and hopefully the PF is a solid defender too.
