Suns Could Trade Nash, Amare

The thought of it sounds strange, but could Nash be shipped out of Phoenix in the off-season? After failing to make the playoffs for the first time in a long time, the Suns have said that they will entertain trade offers. Not only could Nash find himself on the trading block, Amare Stoudemire and Shaquille O’Neal will be shopped around. It’s not too big of a stretch to believe that if even one of the before-mentioned players are traded, depending on what is offered, the Suns could potentially enter a rebuilding stage. Those three players are without a doubt the Suns best players and when teams begin shipping out their cornerstone guys, one has to think that they want to rebuild.

The Suns will enter the draft with the 14th overall pick and if Nash really is potentially on his way out, we could see the Suns select a point guard with their pick. Johnny Flynn or even Ty Lawson could be a solid pick at that point for the Suns. Both are point guards that love to get up and down the floor and more importantly, both are defensive minded and team-first oriented. Just the kind of point guard they are looking for. Even if Nash is to stay, one of those would make a nice addition.
