They're in desparate need of a PG after waiving Billups. Who do they have that we would want? If they're after JJ Barea, they would do backflips for Bynum or Stuckey.
Probably couldn't afford Stuckey anyway, especially based on what Joe D said about the negotiations. And I don't think they have much left in terms of trade-able assets in order to think about Bynum.
I was under the impression from last year that they finally figured out that Stucky is more of a 2 and Brand Knight was drafted to take over the point. Who knows, maybe they will try Knight at the 2.
