Houston Rockets

The Rockets don’t really have anybody that the Suns can acquire.

Chris Paul would be perfect in Phoenix and might be one of the few point guards in the NBA that would actually make the Suns a playoff team this season if acquired early enough.

However he’s also a perfect fit in Houston and they are a perennial championship contender with James Harden and Clint Capela, plus they might might be on the verge of acquiring Jimmy Butler so why would they trade him?

They wouldn’t. The question was entirely facetious.

Unless the Rockets were acquiring an upgrade they are also probably are not interested in trading Michael Carter-Williams either who too would immediately step in as the Suns’ best point guard.

Would you take Brandon Knight back? Will he ever play again?

For his sake I hope he does play again.

For the Suns’ sake, no they should never trade for him again.

Like I said, Houston has nothing to offer Phoenix.
