ZERO interior D
I am scared of Bosh next to Nash...
Even if the Rockets are high on Scola and Landry I don't think that would be a big factor on whether they like or dislike it. Scola nor Landry are part of their future plans and they are really bought on trading Mcgrady, it's not even like they are just getting expiring contracts, they would be getting Salmons and Miller who can help any team out, and Thomas has alot of potential.

Since when does Bosh provide interior D?
Bosh and depth is my second ideal...
What's interesting about this whole thing is we have absolutely 0 clue of what Kerr's plan is beyond this year. The bad part is there's a good chance Kerr has 0 clue.
Nash
Raja Bell back (any hard feelings) for 3 ish
Hill
Bosh
Frye
Dragic/Dudley/Amundson
Even sign another MLE type player though if Sarver signed Bosh i doubt he would do much more...
IMO, Amare > Bosh, I've never been a big fan of his (I'm no fan of Amare either). Amare has absolutely nutted on Bosh in H2H.
For the money, Amare will likely be cheaper due to health concerns, decline in production.
Say Frye resigns for 5 ish Hill stays locked in and Amare starting at 18 mil...
If im correct Suns are only at 44 mil which will still give them another 11 ish mil?? Is this correct
Nash
Amare
11 mil player
Hill
Frye
There's a decent selection of second-tier/third tier bigs. Lee is a good option as a big man and should arguable be in the first tier with Bosh, Amare and Boozer. Camby and J. O'Neal headline the third tier, and there's a chance each can be had for a 3/4 year, MLE-level amount. Frye is also likely to be available. Maybe resign Frye to MLE, go after Camby for MLE and look to keep Amare, then go after a 3/4 million per option for SG? Maybe look to trade Clark to New Jersey for Courtney Lee? With Douglas-Roberts emergence, Lee isn't as needed.
It's not out of the question that this could be the Suns lineup next year...
PG: Nash, Dragic
SG: MLE-level player
SF: Hill, Dudley
PF: Amare (resign at near MAX), Amundson (resign for cheap)
C: Frye (resign at MLE level), Camby (sign at MLE level)
If the MLE level is roughly 5.5 million, then times three is 16ish or so. Say Amare is resigned at a deal worth 18 per season (not quite max, but more than his last deal with Phoenix which averaged 16 per season), but starts at 15 million, then Phoenix has spent roughly 32 million in CAP space. Add this to the roughly 21 million on the books for Nash, Hill, Dragic, Dudley, Lopez and Clark and Phoenix is at roughly 53 million, or right around where most think the low-end projections for the CAP is. There's a chance the CAP is at 55, which would give them a bit more space.
I still say trade Clark for Lee, sign a backup SG for 2/3 million and have roughly three MLE's and a MAX for your frontcourt.
EDIT: ^ or, have enough to resign Amare at 15 million starting (18 on average), Frye at 4 million starting (5.5 on average) and sign David Lee for 10 million starting (12 on average).
That's got some potential, there...
