    Ted Turner to get involved?

    I put in the disclaimer that they would probably have to apply for some type of exception, maybe you missed that. I am sure that more would be included be it picks or a TE but those two players take care of some of the holes the Suns have. Snyder definitely has far more offensive potential...

    Ted Turner to get involved?

    If New Orleans is interested, I would definitely think the Suns should consider a JJ for Dan Dickau and Kirk Snyder I would think the Suns could apply to the league for some type of exception regarding the dealings with Atlanta which have tied their hands for a week. If so then they...

    Sarver on 910 at 5:00Pm

    But Sarver conceded the fact that he would have to pay JJ more than the 50M the following summer and was willing to do it. I fault Bryan more than Sarver, signing Q was the problem. The perception of JJ was that was an insult because it was supposed to be a motivator. Sure in the long run Q...

    Will the Suns pursue Abdur-Rahim??

    I don't see a problem with the Blazers trading within the Conference, they traded the #4 pick to Utah who is in their division. I just see a 4&5 rotation of Thomas, SAR and Amare being a very potent offense. We will miss a lot of scoring with JJ gone and SAR can provide a good amount.

    Sarver on 910 at 5:00Pm

    1) That is what I was trying to say. 2) 75M was better than the original offer the Suns made (based original offer off of Nash and Manu). And the offer was a part of negotiations, why have an agent if he is not going to be a part of the negotiations. If was an insult, at least tell the Suns...

    Sarver on 910 at 5:00Pm

    Here are the points I would like to highlight. 1)Sarver did spend a lot of money last summer but did not have to if he would have not traded the draft pick to Chicago. But I do see his point, there was no way to expect the success they had. 2)He knew that JJ would be getting a bigger...

    new orleans

    I think this NO rumor does not seem to be true. But If there was a way to consumate a deal with a sign and trade with the Hornets, I would not mind getting Kirk Snyder and Dan Dickau,this deal was messed up at the Aug 1 date maybe we could get an exception from the league to persue Snyder and...

    I Wish We Wouldn't Have Traded Q Now.

    And we added Raja, I think he will surprise a lot people this year just like Q did last season. We were able to trade for Kurt because of Q, I don't think there was any one else on our roster that would have been able to satisfy Isiah to make that trade, so signing him last season got us a...

    Bickley: JJ NO WANTY ATL...

    Marion is not a max player either. The Suns did not let the market determine his value like they wanted to with JJ, that is a mistake they made and did not want to replicate. Marion was offered a max extension just like what they will do with Amare. I think that they regret that now because...

    Is Their A Chance JJ Could Stay In PHX?

    Joe has another option is he is forced to come back to the Suns, he can just sign the tendered offer good for a year and then become an unrestricted FA. He helps the Suns for a year and then moves on if he likes. Or by playing for the Suns for one more season he may find out he is not the...

    Bickley: JJ NO WANTY ATL...

    I agree as well. Marion is a great athlete who plays basketball. JJ is a great baskeball player who is athletic. Marion would be a great wide receiver in football, a great high jumper in track and field and probably could be a very good figure skater. But the guy does not have a fluid...

    Zaza to the Hawks?

    The August 3rd article "Zaza signs offer sheet, Bucks have 7 days to match" had this interesting statement "per club policy, terms of the offer were not disclosed". So if it were team policy we would never have known what the offer to JJ was and that it included a front loaded 20M. That is...

    When and where on TV is the press conference?

    I was thinking the same thing about JC. Pissed or just annoyed with idiotic questions from idiotic reporters (I mean distorters).

    When and where on TV is the press conference?

    My impression of both JC and BC is that they are classy guys. They don't trash anyone. If I remember correctly they both made amends with Charles Barkley and Antonio McDyess. The things that were supposedly stated about both of these guys was generated by the press. It looks like JJ is going...

    The Replacement

    Here's my list Desmond Mason- If the trade exception is anywhere in the ball park of 7.5 M he is attainable. The Bucks just traded for Jiri Welch and obviously have sewn up Micheal Redd. The Bucks need front line help, cut Calvin Booth and probably will not match Zaza. Bogut and Gadzooks with...

    Moves should keep JJ-less Suns in mix

    Derek Anderson could fall through the cracks, I think the perception of him is very similar to Jim Jackson. Once he gets on a good team he could excel.

    Seems like another blockbuster trade is near completion

    And Rasual Butler. How much cap space did they have.

    next steps

    Allen kind of reminded me of JJ at times although he is 3 inches shorter. I could get excited if the Suns acquired him.

    next steps

    Grahamcrackr What you think about Tony Allen. With the Celts getting Gerald Green and possibly Dorrell Wright both 6'7" shooting guards, Allen might be disposable. Saw a lot of him at OSU and he could light it up and played tenacious defense.

    next steps

    It sounds like a back to the basket low post player struggles mightily outside does not drive much I say pass, won't fit in.

    Diaw?

    Sounds like you do not want to have Barbosa and Diaw on the court at the same time, they could have been separated at birth.

    Forgot about the dreaded BYC status.

    Desmond Mason

    That cannot be right. Diaw salary is only 1.1M. JJ will be signing for 14M. Adding the trade exception to Diaw totals 6.1M. That leaves roughly 8M, so the two first round picks are going to be valued at 4M apiece. No way. If you use the 25% rule here the picks are valued at 2M, that makes more...

    Desmond Mason

    As posted by jlove earlier If it is not possible to combine players and trade exceptions how are we getting Diaw and picks plus the trade exception for JJ. Milwaukee could use the exception to add a additional PF, Joe Smith is the only one on the roster currently. They could add Juwan...
