Thank you to Joseph and Santiago for the articles on the Phoenix Suns Dream Team Roster of 2010-2011. I know that the roster is just a dream, but it is possible if it is executed perfectly. Just Look at the Boston Celtics becoming NBA champions with the surprising additions of Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett (In their first season together,nonetheless). This could be Phoenix next season with Lee, Dirk, and Wade joining Hill and Nash in the starting line-up. I think we've been given a hint of hope with Danny Ferry's departure as CAV's GM. The Phoenix Suns should hire Ferry as GM or assistant GM and present him with the SUNS DREAM TEAM PLAN of 2010-2011 Season. I think that he could have the ability to make this happen if Steve Kerr felt incapable to do it himself. Phoenix Suns would emerge this off-season as the favorites to be NBA Champions next season. The only team that I see beating them is the PORTLAND NIGHTMARE TEAM OF 2010-2011 of: Miller, Roy, Lebron, Bosh, Camby/Oden (I am knocking on wood every night that this doesn't come true) Suns fans reading this that have twitter or facebook, that would like to see this team become a reality or be taken into consideration, need to send Wade messages so he takes the suns into consideration. (Also send messages to Steve Kerr at Ask Steve Kerr, and the Contact Us section in Suns homepage.) We've got less than 4 weeks, but we may be able to grab some attention if plenty of us make our voices heard. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/401540-possibl... http://bleacherreport.com/articles/401179-2011-is... P.S. Sorry for the grammatical errors. I am heading to the movies and feel to lazy to proofread. PEACE.

financially getting wade works. but no team in their right mind would trade the 2nd best guard in the nba for richardson and frye. I’m a huge suns fan, and i’d love if that happened. but no team would make that trade. you might as well propose that trade to the lakers for kobe. it would end with the same result. however, i am all for getting dirk, WHILE still having frye. imagine the line up of nash jrich dudley frye and dirk. all 3 point shooters. that would totally mess with the defense at times of desperation. but i really dont want to lose barbosa either. he struggled this year for obvious reasons. next season he should be back to normal and ready to contribute more to the team.

I'm an outsider & new to the Suns team, so I can only comment on what I've seen during the playoffs, STAT did not impress me, he should have stepped up & been consistent when playing the Lakers. I'm a HUGE fan of the bench so keep them, Dragic, Dudley, Barbosa, J Rich, etc. They have GREAT chemistry! I'm not sure who the Suns should try to acquire acquire during the off season since I do not consider myself an expert authority. I'm just a fan of basketball. This amazing Sun's team won me over when I watched the Suns sweep the Spurs. I am from So Cal which in most cases makes someone from this area a Laker fan, imagine my surprise when I found myself cheering for the Suns & being devastated when the Lakers beat them. I was public enemy number 1 because I spoke my mind among my friends, family and co-workers stating that I would love to see the SUNS in the finals. Please Mr. Kerr, do what ever it takes to make this team a contender next year. I look forward to watching the Suns next season from day 1!

[...] Well here we are. Another long hot summer in the valley with no NBA championship. Sorry its been so long since I have posted anything Suns related. At the end of every season I have to take a step back, chill out and relax. Remind myself it’s not the end of the world and there is always next season. In reality we should all feel great about this past season. We should certainly feel better than we did at the end of last season. This season expectations were low and almost getting to the NBA finals was a pleasant a surprise. So what do we do with this team? Steve Nash and Grant Hill are going to be back but is Amare Stoudemire? He is loved by his teammates. Fans seem to be divided on him, depending on how many rebounds he gets. He is an amazing talent and nobody disputes that. His discipline and consistency is what is questioned. In the playoffs he lost that defensive edge he had in the second half of the season. In fact everything went south in the playoffs. From valleyofthesuns.com: [...]

All of you baggin cuz dem lakers rolled over los suns in 6 games. Dont worry triangle offensive hard to overcome without solid defensive player to shutdown Kobe and with little to no rebounding so address the issues.

1. if you dont have defense them replace with offense

Dirk can fill this gap if Amare leaves

2.Frye non issue in series no 3pt shot and no rebounds or defensive help

Kick him to the curb and pay for defensive presence

3.no one could guard kobe BS he is no Michael

answer Wade or very strong defensive player

So agree with Will but keep Lou

Thanks Will and Pap. Meanwhile on Planet Earth, we have no chance in hell of signing D-Wade, Lee and Dirk, so lets move on.

I still can't believe how cheaply people throw around the word 'Great' in discussing Amare. He is a great scorer, not a great player. Even then, he isn't truly elite – he is staggeringly efficient, but has never threatened to get 30 PPG. Would you give Danny Granger or Monta Ellis (who were both ahead of Amare in scoring this year) a max deal? Of course not. And stop all the talk about the Suns jerking him around – he is paid $15m a year to play basketball, so grow up and get on with it (which actually is what he did second half of the season).

LoL. Thank You. I should be a Team Consultant xp. I've read that Dirk wouldn't mind taking a pay cut if it meant going to a title contending team. If the Suns were by some miracle able to acquire Wade through a Sign-Trade that sent Richardson and Frye to the heat; then, Dirk would be more than willing to join his old friend Nash for a decent pay. (Even more so, if David Lee were convince to sign with Phoenix to be the rebounding force and scorer that he is with the Knick…David Lee would be the new Louuu with better shooting.) The go to scorer, in this Suns Dream Team, would obviously be D-Wade, Dirk (2nd), Lee (3rd), Nash (4th + assist leader), and Hill (5th).

The Suns peaked with the team that they currently have and I doubt they could get as far next year with the current team. STAT proved that he's not Max player material and that Frye can choke when the team needed him to step-up (WCF Gm 1-4). I still have faith that Barbosa can be a reliable back up SG and that the surgery and lack of playing time affected his game.

Even if Wade is a long shot, having Dirk and Lee on the team would be a vast improvement for the Suns this upcoming season. That is why I stand for getting rid of STAT, FRYE, LOU, COLLINS, AND RICHARDSON (unless we can't get Wade) and convince Kerr to do everything possible to acquire Dirk and Lee and possibly Wade. The Suns would be the most dominant FG% shooting team in the Nba.

LET'S START A PETITION TO SEND TO KERR AND SARVER

The future of “Los Suns” should not be in Arizona… better to have no team vs the discrace that is the Sucky Suns.
