    Trade Rumors!

    would love the trade if it happens. the only way it has a chance though is if Oladipo is still there. There are no star players at the top this year (maybe Noel if all pans out, while Mclemore is top call for this years biggest bust imho and I'm not all that high on Dipo either). Getting...

    2012 Suns voluntary workouts

    Actually Finland isn't. Finland and Belgium are pretty similar level teams and both are weaker than Latvia and Georgia. Latvia hasn't missed European championships in ages, though at the moment they are in transition, and Georgia has one of the best teams in years while Finland is largely one...

    2012 Suns voluntary workouts

    not exactly true. Georgia was playing against Bosnia, Latvia, Netherlands and Romania. Romania and Netherlands are weaker, but Netherlands still managed to beat Georgia. Bosnia has Teletovic who signed with Nets and Latvia, without Biedrins is talented but extremely young team with former Sun...

    BrightSideofTheSun: Wesley Johnson Article

    actually, after we signed him, there were articles stating that Dragic had better offer, from Bobcats if i recall, but he chose to sign with Suns for less, because of his relationship with Gentry.

    Who will the Suns draft at #13?

    rumor has it Austin Rivers also has a promise, late in the lottery. I think Suns are more likely to be responsible for this than Waiters. http://tracking.si.com/2012/06/10/austin-rivers-pre-draft-promise/

    unlike Griffin though, Robinson measured just 6'8 in shoes. that might drop him

    Who will the Suns draft at #13?

    actually Jeremy might fall as he is being considered soft by a lot of scouts. Would love him for Suns too. Wouldn't mind Doron either if Suns acquire late first round pick. Big No for Sullinger though.

    Marcin Gortat will play in Russia

    Russian league is much stronger than Greek league, even before crisis. now, when Greeks don't even have powerhouse clubs left as both Panathinaikos and Olympiakos are on the brink of bankruptcy... Very doubt that CSKA Moscow could be that team. This year they've announced that they...

    2011 Draft Thread

    probably you're right, as Suns don't really like back to the basket type players, but from the draft position stand point, there's a chance he might drop some - i've read (on si.com) that there's some questions about his size - apparently he looks more like 6'7" than 6'9". size can really scare...

    2011 Draft Thread

    I wouldn't be surprised if SUNS FO would stick with the late tradition and go with one of the Morris twins of Kansas ;) they didn't look bad against Texas and Tristan Thompson in that Big 12 final and both supposed to be mid to late first rounders.

    Supposed meeting at practice

    just thought to post this tidbit from RealGM forums from a guy with an Insight. http://forums.realgm.com/boards/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=1087524&sid=4587c4d6f3e8eccb2d1b329ea3deafe2 if it's true, not sure there's anything that could help SUNS this season, even a blockbuter trade.

    Turkey's shooting % in that game was just unbelievable - 2p. - 22/31 (71%), 3p. - 10/17 (59%). No wonder Slovenia lost - not much chance when opponent shoots like that

    Actually I'm a European! and I watch a lot of Euro ball. And yes - they are good players. good Role players. and they work only in their system. I saw a lot of games of Garbajosa when he was playing in Russia, and he didn't work there either. Also I wouldn't equal Cheap Shot Bob with Garbo...

    and now he'll play against Dragic and Slovenia in quarterfinals. Slovenians never left any chance to Australia - Dragic had a good game too - 10 points, 8 assists, 4 boards. some of his passes were really sweet

    by the way - Garbajosa was one of those guys who came to play in NBA. didn't really impact much in Toronto. I'm sure Diamantidis wouldn't either. it was also his last game for national team.

    completely agree. This is Chad Ford's rumor and according to him Amar'e threats to opt in for next year scared Philly. Then he says Suns is cost conscious themselves and that's why they want dump Amar'e. If Suns are so cost conscious - why in gods name they would take back horrible contracts of...
