    Market forces: Top 12 trade assets

    Same reason we got rid of Marbury and Penny's deal to NY for McDyess. We ended up landing Nash because of these kind of moves. Too bad they spend the remainder on Q.

    Shaq+Barnes <--> Josh Howard+Stackhouse

    Do you honestly think that Howard is the "character guy" that Steve Kerr is looking to pursue here? Doubt it. Howard has a low basketball IQ, and has proven time and time again to be brainless in clutch moments of big games. I think there is a lot of desperation amongst Suns fans that things...

    Steve Francis waived

    I think he had some sort of injury this year while on the Rockets, but was never able to get time over guys like Aaron Brooks, and Luther Head when healthy anyway. He's just not good anymore.

    Steve Francis waived

    Goodness this guy is a loser. Crazy things is he's only been in the league 9 years. He's fallen pretty hard.

    I've seen the future of the NBA and his name is Amare Stoudemire.

    All I want from Amare is consistent effort. A lot of times this year, it has looked like he is going at half speed, and just doesn't give a crap. Even if he puts forth effort, and his numbers don't shoot up, he'll make a positive impact.

    ASG jerseys

    C'mon, the old ones are hideous. I guess I'm in the minority. I think they look pretty slick, but I like jerseys to be more plain anyway. They haven't really incorporated team colors in these jerseys since they brought back the East/West unis a few years back. They pretty much stuck the red...

    Do you want amare back?

    I'm firmly on the when Amare scores he becomes engaged and other aspects of his game elevate bandwagon. Problem is: - the team has pretty much killed the pick & roll, which is his bread and butter. - He's not a good post player, so it's hard to just feed him the ball. - He doesn't...

    Do you want amare back?

    I agree. I don't think we really need a PF to score 25 points a night that doesn't do anything else on the floor. The questions are really who, and what would have to give to get him?

    Sheed to Phoenix ?

    If anything, this would signal the official end to the Suns championship hopes. You would get a big expirer in Sheed, and a SF in Prince that could replace Hill after this year. Kerr could still try and sell the move to fans because we would still be talented, though major holes would be present...

    Has Amare mailed it in?

    Right now it certainly appears that way. It kind of has ever since those 2 games against Memphis and OKC. Before that he was playing very well, but it seems as though his play comes in waves. Right when I'm about to really question Amare, he has a string of 20/10 games and I think maybe he's...

    Dee Brown released...

    I'm not sure he's serviceable right now. He's played in 4 games this year, which I'm sure was garbage time. I think maybe in time he'll be serviceable, but I don't think he's really ready to play if he was called on say if Nash went down again. I haven't seen him play, but reading stuff from...

    Dee Brown released...

    You could be right. It seems like we had Linton for a couple 10 days, then he went away, and we brought him back again. Maybe that was the playoff signing?

    Dee Brown released...

    So for Linton, that was pretty much just another 10 day deal with the way we were bounced early...:(

    Dee Brown released...

    You sure? Wasn't Linton Johnson on a 10 day contract basis pretty much all season while he was here? He was on our playoff roster. Unless maybe you have to sign them to a guaranteed deal to get them on your playoff roster, but by then, the contract is probably peanuts anyway.

    Dee Brown released...

    Just a financial move by the Suns. Brown's contract would've become guaranteed if they didn't release him this week. Wouldn't be surprised to see him brought back on a 10 day contract basis. I don't think there's much this in terms of a trade or anything.

    Richardson trade revisited

    Hmm, we got rid of a malecontent below average performing player who wanted to be traded in Raja, and a $9 million role player who's effort was constantly questioned, and brought in an athletic two guard with size who can shoot from distance, and create for himself. J Rich has really only had 1...

    WTF Amare

    Yeah, I've been impressed by Amare lately. I'm not sure what exactly he did to get ejected last night, but it didn't look like it was anything outrageous. The cameras kind of panned away, so I didn't really see much. He does need to be more in control when the chips are down though. Without...

    amares stats

    It's not just you. I feel the same, and have felt that way almost all year. Then I did notice that he's been wearing a knee brace the last 2 or 3 games. I may be getting paranoid based on his history, but it does make me wonder.

    I have my doubts that he straight up told Shawn that he's overpaid, and not as good as his salary warrants.

    Time to Run Again

    It's still a feeling out process for the Suns. I see no reason why they can't still find a balance of half court and uptempo. I don't think Porter's intention has ever been to have this team come to a crashing hault on offense, but rather picking their spots, or running off stops. See what you...

    2 Interesting Articles: D'Antoni Rips Phx Mgmt and Boris to Knicks?

    I think it's pretty safe to say that both sides were at fault as well. The whole way it all went down probably could've been prevented, however, it didn't, and it was time to move on. I think the writing was on the wall before the Marion trade. I never felt like they were going anywhere, and...

    Trib: Suns remain cloudy on who they are

    I think they're adjusting. Everyone is adjusting. This isn't going to work overnight, and I don't think they'll really find their identity for a little while. If they're still griping about this in Feb and the Suns are struggling, then I'll start hitting the panic button. But I do think "verge...

    AMARE dunk over foster...

    Fantastic dunk on Foster, however, two things cheapened the experience for me. 1. The flop by Amare afterwards 2. Having to listen to Tom Leander call the play.

    Guess who's coming to take your head off in the lane?

    I am in shock that Raja didn't get one last year.
