It was his opinion. He wasn't reporting it as fact. It was nothing anyways. Rose knows nothing more than anybody else.

Marion is smarter than I thought. He can be a free agent in a year, so why hitch your wagon to a moribund franchise like the Celtics?

Which is probably fueling the Amare rumors. The Suns are potentially facing the dilemma of either trading Amare or watching KG join the Lakers if Marion to Boston is inpossible.

Who knows if that deal would've gone through anyway? Lets not get too worked up here, I for one am not going to lose sleep over a lineup of:

Amare/KT
Marion/Diaw
Hill/Jones/Belenelli/Piatkowski
Bell/LB/Belenelli
Nash/Koponen/Banks

Because the East has never been so wide open, and even a team like Atlanta has a chance to do some damage in the East next year.

Marion should sign an extension tomorrow.

I'm sure he and Marion often spoke about the prospects of being traded to Boston. Jim Grey and Rose don't know anything.

Shawn Marion is derailing our championship chances--in the frekking off-season. If I ever hear him complain again, I might go crazy.

Because by being a FA he has to take a big pay cut. Also, a team with Jefferson/Marion/Pierce and Wally would compete in the Easy.

Kerr just needs to tell Marion that if he doesnt pack his ****, then he's benched for the season.

how do you know?

I don't. All of the rumors seem to contradict each other so it's obvious that all these "reporters" can't be right. Them all being full of crap is much more likely. It's certainly possible that Marion doesn't want to go to Boston, even probable IMO, but it's not true because Jim Grey or Jalen Rose thinks it is.

Boston will not trade Jefferson to MN and that is the hold-up with keeping boston in the trade. MN said they they want Jefferson for sure if Boston is involved.

rose and marion played together and are probably friends, i think its safer to say he knows what hes talking about rather than just talking to talk.

I just had 2 people tell me the same thing. An extension was offered and he turned it down.

Unbelievable.

Marion's fragile ego is screwing three teams simultaneously: the Suns, because now their title hopes are shot; the Celtics, because now Pierce will demand a trade; and the Wolves, because now they're going to have to take the Lakers' crappy offer for Garnett.

The only winner is the Lakers. Of course.
