Let me know who you PC for trade or what you are looking for price-wise.
What are your thoughts?
I don't really care for it... Maybe?
The Suns need either guys that won't take long term cap space paired with picks or young players they can develop. I don't really see Kelly as being that because he's going to have to get paid this summer and that seems to me not the best use of Phoenix's cap space. Mainly because the less cap space you have, the more you have to be focused on actually winning and the talent doesn't seem to be there yet. You already paid Booker, a second big contract to a young dude might not be the best idea so soon. So in that perspective, might as well take some other dude as long as you get a pick, even if a very late first that turns into two second rounders if not converted or something. Is that really not something big teams, that have real late playoffs aspirations this year to hand out? I guess Austin is another ball handler for a team without any playable point guards.
However, Oubre might not be that expensive with the RFA control because maybe no team is willing to give that expensive of an offer sheet and the argument that the team will still have cap space in two years (even earlier if they find a way to move Anderson). And you can definitely question what type of talent they'd get with cap space this summer anyway. So maybe they simply won a guy that can be a part of a future core and if that's how you see it, i'd even say that they "won" the trade.
For the Wizards, i guess i'm not that big a fan of this because i believe this core needs to be blown up, or at least shaken up in a more significant way. They are expensive as shit and they hate each other. Ariza won't solve this and i'll be shocked if they have a playoff run that justifies the continuous financial bet in these guys. But if you still think they should keep the team than at least i see why it's a good move because they won't have to go even further into the tax for Kelly and Austin was being trash. But: A) you're betting Ariza actually shows up and improves your team and i'm not sure the Wizards are the best scenario for him to do so; And B) He's going to be out of there next year and you have the same capped out, self-hating team while being less deep. Maybe future moves are to come...
What do you all think? I'm sure there are many different perspectives about this and maybe i'm thinking too much about something simple or ju

Context:
> Los Angeles Clippers guard Austin Rivers said Wednesday that he and Houston Rockets forward Trevor Ariza were now on good terms, after a confrontation following L.A.'s 113-102 win over Houston on Monday.
>According to ESPN.com's Ramona Shelburne, Rivers said he spoke for 35 minutes on the phone with Ariza, who entered the Clippers' locker room along with other Houston players following the game: "First and foremost, me and Trevor have no problems. He called me. He reached out to me. Trevor and I talked and hashed everything out. He was really cool about being the bigger guy and calling me."
>ESPN.com's Adrian Wojnarowski reported that several Rockets players took issue with Rivers' trash talking during the game. Gerald Green, Chris Paul and James Harden were the players who accompanied Ariza to the Clippers' locker room.
