    the NBA where getting screwed on the road happens

    Oh, please. If the refs call McDyess for grabbing Shaq under the basket, Shaq goes to the line, misses the free throws, and the rest of the game plays out the same.

    Mvp,6th Man,most Improved,rookie,coach Of The Year,season Awards...

    It’s not against the spirit of the award, it’s the spirit in which the award was founded. The first three awards (one to Bobby Jones and two to Kevin McHale) went to “artificial” sixth men.

    With Gasol and Bynum both banged up, do you look at LA as seriously?

    In their last three games, even without Gasol and Bynum, the Lakers have: * Opened up a 25-point lead against Dallas, only to let up and hold on to win a close one. * Ended Utah’s 19-game home win streak, leading by as much as 24 before winning by 11. * Beat Seattle by 25. If they...

    Golden State v. Suns 03/13/08

    How so? The Suns were +9 in the 14 minutes Shaq was on the floor.

    Game Thread - Suns @ Lakers - Sunday April 30, 2006 **12:30 pm**

    Three straight close games. Three straight close games getting screwed by officiating errors in crunch time. Three losses in three straight close games getting screwed by officiating errors in crunch time. Unbuckingfelievable.

    Anyone hear Bordow on 1060?

    This doesn’t even come close to working under the salary cap. Marion makes $12.6M. Magloire is a Base Year Compensation player, which means the Hornets can only count last year’s salary, $1.7M, in a trade. That’s a difference of almost $11M, Mr. Bordow. It would be bad enough if it were...

    Snag in the Shaq deal?

    I kinda hope it drags out long enogh to drive Kobe to the Clips. ;)

    Should The Suns Help Dallas Get Ilgauskas?

    No it wouldn’t. Look up Base Year Compensation in the CBA or the Salary Cap FAQ.

    Boiven of AZ Republic says Clips won't match for Q!

    The way this roster looks right now, he’ll probably have to handle C. :?

    Steve Kerr's role?

    They didn't just boo. They chanted, "PLO! PLO! PLO!" It was the PLO that had assassinated Kerr's father. If there has ever been a more unsportsmanlike act in this country... I can't think of any.

    My thoughts on the Nash signing...

    Oh, there's still some good content on the site.

    Keon Clark?

    He is, by all accounts, really bad news. After we traded for him last season, we told him not to bother showing up for practice, and that if he wanted to attend a game, he was welcome to buy a ticket. His reputation is so bad that he might not be able to get an NBA contract at all next...

    My thoughts on the Nash signing...

    The last time they had one of the first five picks in the second round was 1989. They took Kenny Battle. Also, in 1997, about three weeks after the start of the season, they traded for the player who had been the fifth pick in the second round of that summer's draft. That player was Marko...

    Optimist Idea of rest of off season

    Except for Nash. Nash wanted to stay with Dallas and brought our offer back to Cuban, who refused to match it. I guess Nash isn't a talent. Yeah, just like Jahidi White was such a great trading asset for us this year. :roll:

    Optimist Idea of rest of off season

    That sign-and-trade wouldn't work, because Nash would be a BYC player. The Mavs would only be able to take salaries in return based on Nash's previous $5.5M salary, plus 15% plus $100K, so $6.4M. That's just enough for Eisley. No room for JJ. Besides, with Finley, Stackhouse, Howard, and...

    My thoughts on the Nash signing...

    Duh. Can you imagine them taking somebody with the second pick of the second round and not saying "We thought he was likely to go in the first round"?

    Nash: 5 year/65M or 6 years/60M?

    Hmm. The media reports are inconsistent. Some say it is $65M for six years; others say it is $65M for the first five years. I saw one report that says that the $65M figure includes the salary for the first five years and the guaranteed part of the sixth year. Specifically, this report...

    Peter Vescey on TBDSS

    Suppose that BC, and/or some other members of the Suns inner circle, actually did have this conversation with Amare. What kind of 455h013 would mention the conversation to Peter Vescey? It just defies imagination that anybody who would be involved in this conversation would be so...

    Interesting news on the TMac front

    Vescey’s credibility is low. ESPN’s message board’s credibility is darn close to zero. The credibility of this story is the product of Vescey’s credibility and the credibility of ESPN’s message board. Why are we even discussing it?

    With all the latest moves, is there any chance of moving Eisley now???

    Why would you want to give up what is more likely than not a future lottery pick to get rid of Eisley? What benefit will come from that? We have about $16.3 million in cap room now. Unless Kobe is coming, there is nobody we’re going to get with that cap room who is actually worth it. If...

    Ladies and Gentlemen, We Now O-fficially Have a BUTTLOAD of Cash

    Or, of course, we could just use that 7th pick to draft somebody of value! A radical idea, I know, but it just might work. I think the Suns are still hoping to get Kobe. I don’t see any other way that the Jahidi deal makes sense. Give up White, a first-rounder, and cash, just to make a run...

    Gambo: McGrady deal NOT done

    So, does this mean that we were not offering anything like what was rumored? Would Orlando actually prefer something like Allen/Mobley, or Arenas/Mobley, to Marion/JJ or Marion/#7? Either we never offered much beyond Marion up, or Marion/Casey—or Magic management is just totally looney...
