Recently, the official website of Suns issued a statement saying that the team reached an agreement with Claude , which will not participate in media days and training camps, which basically confirms that Claude will be sent to other teams by the Suns before the start of the new season. According to The Athletic reporter Joe Vardon, both the Suns management and Claude are actively seeking the possibility of a deal and are striving to reach a deal before the start of the new season. At this time, the Cavaliers developed a strong interest in Claude. Joe Vardon added: "If Cavaliers is still one player away from the real championship team, the focus of reinforcement will be on the small forward position. This is the real reason why the Cavaliers are interested in trading to get Claude. He is an excellent 3D player with rich experience in playoff and even the finals. It can be used to fight superstars like Durant , Butler and Tatum in the East."
According to the US media "Fadeaway" World" revealed that the Rockets, Suns and Cavaliers are negotiating about a three-party transaction offer. If the negotiations go smoothly, Claude is expected to go to Cleveland and work with Mitchell , Alan, Mobley , and Gallet Allen to build a strong championship-level team. The specific trading plan is:
1, Rockets send Eric Gordon + Kenyon jailin jail2 get Dario Saric + Chedy Ottoman + Dylan Windler + 1 future first round pick (Suns) + 1 future second round pick (Cavs);
2, Suns give Jay Claude + Dario Saric + 1 first round pick Eric Gordon + Kenyon jailman + 1 future second round pick (Cavs);
3, Cavaliers give Cheddy Ottoman + Dylan Windler + 2 future second round picks get Jay Claude.
The Rockets media meeting and training camp held not long ago, Godden and Martin Jr. both participated, but the two had very different attitudes in interviews with the media. Gordon was full of gratitude for the Houston city and the Rockets, while Martin Jr. showed an obvious willingness to leave the team. This deal not only allows Gordon to go to Phoenix to meet his old teammate Paul , but also helps him win a good opportunity to win the championship again at the end of his career. For Gordon, such an opportunity is hard to come by, and for Rockets general manager Raphael Stone, helping Gordon find an ideal next home will help the Rockets accumulate a lot of popularity and prepare for signing Big Fish in the free market next summer.
After two failed seasons, the Suns decided to learn from their mistakes and change the existing lineup, and Claude will be the first target for head coach Monty to take action. As he grows older, his performance on both offense and defense has shown a downward trend year by year. Monty hopes that Cameron Johnson will serve as the team's starting small forward in the new season, and Claude will become a substitute, which will hit him very hard and inevitably lead to the idea of leaving. Gordon has always been one of the players favored by the Suns management. He can help Paul and booker attract a lot of defensive attention on the court, especially since he and Paul have established a tacit understanding for two seasons during the Rockets. They appreciate each other and can achieve the effect of 1+1>2 when they work together. Martin Jr.'s help to the Suns cannot be ignored, especially after McGee left Dallas, the Suns urgently needed to add an inside franchise guard who had outstanding athletic talent and desperately played, and Martin Jr. is one of the best candidates.
