Keep Amar'e?

My proposal: Keep Amar'e Stoudemire - possibly the most offensively-talented and athletic big man in the game right now.

But what else can we do to get better?

First - Trade for Chandler.  This one's been mentioned often.  The most likely trade is Wallace for Chandler, but the Hornets will probably balk at the complete lack of talent.  So, the Suns could simply include Taylor Griffin.  That way he might actually be useful.

Second - Sign Josh Heytvelt.  This big man is 6' 10-11" 250 lbs according to DraftExpress.  His assets include a solid jump shot, athleticism, size, and plays tough.  However, he is not terribly strong, so his defense is iffy, and is said to be a pretty poor passer.  And his fundamentals need work.  But how many guys don't have the same issues coming into the draft?  In most mocks, he was projected to go in the top half of the second round, and some saw him as the last pick of the 1st round.  He is talented, and could provide some very valuable frontcourt depth, to go along with some decent upside.

Third- Sign C.J. Watson.  Yes, another Golden State Warrior.  He would be a backup point guard, and is clearly better suited than Dragic, for now.  Plus, he's the best free agent point guard that wouldn't be looking for a starting job.  Playing for the Warriors has its perks, though.  He will be familiar with a fast-paced offense, and can score.  I think a $3 million yearly salary for 2-3 years is reasonable.  He also provides better insurance than anyone else, if Nash (gasp) leaves. 

Fourth - Re-sign Grant Hill.  No commentary should be needed - but I will anyway.  A very capable defender, good passer, rebounder, ball handler, great guy, etc.

So the roster would look like:

C - Chandler/Lopez/Stoudemire/Amundson/Heytvelt

PF - Stoudemire/Amundson/Clark/Heytvelt/Hill/Dudley

SF - Hill/Dudley/Richardson/Clark/Tucker/Griffin

SG - Richardson/Tucker/Barbosa

PG - Nash/Watson/Dragic/Barbosa

That puts the roster a the maximum-15.  So just stick Dragic, Griffin, and, probably Heytvelt in the D-League.  They'll need it.

This roster is mainly geard toward this upcoming season, and gambling for a deep playoff run.  It has a lot of potential, fixing the Suns greatest weakness last year - thanks to Tyson Chandler.
