    Dig the retro uni's

    Don't expect the Suns to get rid of the orange until Home Depot decides not to sponsor the "Home Depot, Home Opener". I would rather have them reverse the color if the "Marketing Campaign" contines. Orange is too bold, if the body was charcoal gray, the side panels orange and the piping...

    Skita wants to be traded

    Sayes the Wolves have not lived up to their promises. Contract is only 745K, if we use part of the trade exeception we will still have around 3M remaining. I think he has a 2 year contract but not certain if the 2nd year is guarenteed. At this price he is a bargain. Edit: Second year is not...

    Revisiting the Joe trade...

    In hindsight, the Suns had better offseason moves in 2005 than 2004 and yet Colangelo may not get the Executive of the Year award. Trading away the lottery pick to Chicago, signing Q instead of extending JJ and trading for Jim Jackson during the season. The JJ trade is looking to be a better...

    Joe Already Unhappy?

    That was the most notable statement that BC made during the interview was that he was convinced that the information that JJ's agent was pumping him was biased because it favored the agent. He clearly stated that he was sure he convinced Sarver that the best move was to match any offer. It was...

    Joe Johnson interview

    I always thought the signing of Q got this whole mess started. It will be an ironic that BC will get executive of the year for helping the Suns make a great turnaround with this JJ situation marking the '04 offseason. The trade with Atlanta will not reap benefits this year because Amare is...

    Ratliff

    Sorry about the mistake, I never got to read the final verdict from Larry Coon. If that is the case, I will permanently scratch Ratliff off my wish list because there is no way that we sacrafice Marion, Nash or Thomas.

    Ratliff

    Peter Vecsey has stated that Portland is shopping Theo Here is a possible mid December deal we could put together TE - 3.7M Jackson - 2.7M Grant - 1.7M Burke -.7M = 75% for Ratliff - 11.6M Portland gets expiring contracts and cap space.

    Bucks get Magloire for Mason

    I really wanted the Suns to make a run for Mason before they signed James Jones. Mason should fill some seats in Oklahoma City for the Hornets.

    Suns Claim Jared Reiner Off Waivers

    Nice to see a fellow Hawkeye get signed, but this is not the Iowa alum I wanted, Reggie Evans would have been nice.

    Francisco Elson

    I just think Barbosa is in the same situation with the Suns, with Jackson, Bell, Diaw, Jones and House, he is going to find it hard to get PT.

    Francisco Elson

    Article in Rocky Mountain News. http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drmn/nuggets/article/0,1299,DRMN_20_4166295,00.html He helped the Nuggets go 9-2 as a starter last year. Karl "he would have been a starter on his Milwaukee teams." Najera, Nene, and Camby all are taking his minutes, it...

    McDyess Anyone

    How about adding McDyes to Kurt Thomas and Amare. I realize I am harping on the past but the trio could make a good rotation in the future.

    OT: Can Stern just contract the Raptors already..

    It is becoming evident that the league cannot be profitable or effective in Canada. If you have to ask a player before you draft him "Are you willing to play in Canada" that's a problem. Also the tax rates in this semi-socialist country make the players lose a larger portion of their contracts...

    McDyess Anyone

    I made this proposal in another post on a different thread. Dice went to Detroit for two reasons, to play for Larry Brown (mainly because he liked him as a coach at the Olympics) and to win a championship. He got close to the championship last year and little did he know he could have helped...

    NBA introduces new dress code

    There are not too many employers that allow their employees to wear big gold chains, unless you work in the 'rap industry'. The arguments that I have heard in defense of players wearing 'expensive' throw back jerseys and chains is that is their image. Kids do not need to spend $200 bucks on a...

    NBA introduces new dress code

    Nike will not have a problem with it. Nike owns Cole-Haan, some of the best dress shoes on the market. Expensive crocks go for over $1000 a pair, that means higher margins. I am also going to put this in a street language that even Allen Iverson will understand, the owners feel like the...

    Phoenix vs. Seattle

    Diaw now has become our point forward, since our point guard and point center are out.

    Why did they wait

    Johnson did not want to be here, even after the team became a winner. What can you change about that, Johnson likes losing. If we did not trade Q, we wouldn't have Kurt Thomas on the roster and our starting center would have been Voskuhl. I don't know about you but I glad that they did...

    Amare out - Need for another big man

    It is a good thing we made the Kurt Thomas trade or else we would really be up a creek without a paddle in the middle. Here is another outrageous proposition on my behalf but it is one thing that I really regretted the Suns did not do last summer. Reacquire Antonio McDyess. The Pistons signed...

    From LA Times Laker's report! Just a blurb, heh heh!

    There no reason for LeBron to leave Cleveland, his roots are in Ohio and I believe he will want to bring home a championship to the state. Wade is the anti Kobe and Shaq has promoted him as such. Kobe and Wade will never be a tandem. Carmelo would be the only possible defector from their...

    Raps trade Alston to Rockets for Mike James

    Another team like the Celtics that have a glut in the backcourt. I would still like to find a way to pry Bob Sura away from them, he would be the best insurance policy if Nash gets hurt and is out for a prolonged period of time.

    Hornets send point guard Dickau to Celtics

    Thanks for noting that I am the conspiracy theorist on the board, I would have been disappointed if you gave someone else that title. My target on the Celtics (Tony Allen) has gotten into some legal problems, I believe in Chicago, so he is probably out of contention. I have always liked...

    Training camp players

    I should be a Spurs scout, I think one of these guys might make the cut for the Spurs. One name that is missing is Tyus Edney, he played very well for the Nuggets in Las Vegas. Must have determined that Europe may be best for him. Luis Flores is also with Sacramento, I think he and House...

    Off-season now over- happy with the moves?

    The trading of the 21st pick this summer does not bother me since we got two 1st rounders back from Atlanta. The other thing to remember is that we will have Jim Jackson for an entire season, the trade to get him last year looks like even a better move now that Joe Johnson got his wish to play...

    Definitive answer from Larry Coon

    My take First answer He stated that you can use two execptions in one trade but it has to be for mulitple players in return. That makes sense because two exceptions equal two players. Second answer The word aggregate means that you combine enough players or exceptions to make the deal work...
