Truely Atlanta is his only chance at making that much money. So they are saying the right thing to get it done.
I am sure he wants to stay in PHX, but if he has to play in Atlanta to make that much money I dont think it is a hard choice to make. He would be "THE MAN" there and would get special treatmant. Not to mention after afew years he could demant a trade if they dont turn it around.
Nothing to get in a fuss about yet.
There is the possibility that this is true. If Atlanta becomes convinced that the Suns will match any offer for JJ, they could pull their offer off the table and move on to the next FA before signing day without having lost anything.
If they scream and yell and whatever right now they play the best game of chicken they can with the Suns. JJ has to give Atlanta hope to keep them on board.
I'm not saying this is the way it is, but it is possible.
JJ is incredibly talented, but has never impressed me as being that bright. Dice all over again.
