Woj reporting Lakers closing in on Ariza with Phoenix wanting a playmaking guard and a draft asset as compensation.

Really wish the Pels could get in on Ariza

Ariza going back to LA would disappoint me for some reason..

I don't think the Suns would want to take on Hill which makes trading for Ariza and matching salaries difficult. The Pels also don't have a play making guard to spare.

Would you do Solo, Frank, and two seconds for Ariza?

We really don't have the assets unless we want to give a first for a rental, and I am also shocked the Lakers are seemingly willing to part with Ball or Hart to bring in a guy that if he isn't traded would likely get bought out. Not to mention in a season everyone in the organization saw as the first leg of a two leg process to be completed the following offseason. A lot to give up.
It's a move I just don't get from the Lakers.

In a heartbeat

Do you think that beats the Lakers likely offer?

Absolutely, but I don't think the Suns take it because of Solo having another year. Phoenix is aggressive with FAs most offseasons, they got meetings with Aldridge and Blake, and their owner has a cheap reputation, the kind that would take short cuts for playoff money. I just don't see them wanting to trade future cap space right now, maybe closer to the deadline they'd consider it.

If it takes anything real to get Ariza, I am not a fan. He is not what I would be looking for. I need more playmaking and ball handling.
I do think Hill and our 1st could beat whatever LA is offering, though. I think most GMs think our pick would be between 10-16 and LA will be in the mid 20s
I also don't think they value cap space a ton next year. If they did, they wouldn't have taken on Ryno. I think they might make a trade in season next year or attack the FA market in 2020, but they know they aint getting anyone in 2019
I think you could do Hill and the 1st for him, but I wouldn't do it.

Agreed. I was ok with 2nds and Frank because you dumped Solo in the process. If they wanted a 1st I keep waiting for a better deal to come along.

Isn’t Ariza on a one year deal? Why the hell would anyone give up a decent player and a draft pick for half a year of him?
So they are asking for something like Moore and a 1st? That’s so ridiculous I would have to say I’ll counter with Okafor for Ariza and the suns second.

Because he's making $15 million so you could offer him a deal starting at $18. You'd have a pretty good shot at resigning him for that much. But that might be the biggest reason to not trade for Ariza, he can leverage you into a deal that'd be terrible as continues to age.

The rich get richer I suppose
They should take a look at trying to acquire some talent from Chicago.That team is a shite show right now.

Multi year deal starting at $18m for Ariza? No thank you.
Posted on 12/9/18 at 10:24 pm to TeddyPadillac
Yeah, the proposal I agreed to earlier in the thread was basically a rental of Ariza and dumping Solo for the price of Frank and 2nds.

Ariza is getting a lot of love this year because of the Rockets collapse, but he has been terrible offensively this year.
33 years old and shooting 36%.

It's kind of hard to judge anyone who's playing in the black hole that is Phoenix though. Remember how God awful Elfrid was there last year?

Very good point LG45
There's a reason Ariza is having an abberation year and I don't think it's his age
