Yeah I agree 2cnd round picks suck. Oh wait, Dijon is a second rounder... Now, I'm confused!Chaplin said:Conditional 2nd round pick = virtually useless, ESPECIALLY from the Bobcats.

Associated Press
The Phoenix Suns continue to position themselves to match an expected five-year, $70 million dollar offer sheet from the Atlanta Hawks for Joe Johnson.
On Wednesday the Suns agreed to send center Jake Voskuhl to the Charlotte Bobcats for a conditional second round pick, a Suns team souce said.
The move clears $1.875 million off the cap for Phoenix. Suns owner Robert Sarver has charged Suns managment with finding a way to match Johnson's offer without incurring the luxury tax next season.
According to the same Suns source, the team still intends to match any offer for Johnson.
This move combined with the new amnesty clause (Phoenix plans to ask for relief from Howard Eisley's contract) should do the trick.

Isn't the only way to avoid the cap hell AND resign JJ to a max deal, to sign a couple Euros because we can leave them in the Euro league and not have it count against the cap? Even NBPD (or whatever the hell the development league is called) count against the cap!

Pretty much identical.Treesquid said:Is this similar to the Zarko trade?
