[Divide Et Impera]

[hsandhu]

This is too good to be true, something is gonna happen that will screw all this up, I just know it... probably shawn marion screwing us and saying he doesnt want to be in boston.

 

[joshstmarie]

[YouJustGotSUNSD]

Gambo and Ash just confirmed Stein's saying.

[slinslin]

If you are McHale, what package do you take?

 

[F-Dog]

The Suns have a real chance at this now.

Kevin McHale needs to get it done. I'm sick of his attitude. He still thinks he's playing for the Celtics. Has anybody considered that McHale might have been trying to deliver KG to Beantown to renergize his legacy there, especially when he's getting ready to get canned by the Wolves?

 

[Mainstreet]

I guess the Suns will need to make something happen because I do not want him going to the Lakers. I just hope the price is not outrageous. Will Steve Kerr do it? The Suns need some help from KG to keep the Suns from getting stripped (including draft picks).

 

[devilalum]

The Spurs have officially creamed their pants.

This makes no sense at all.

 

[YouJustGotSUNSD]

crapped their pants maybe?

 

[TheCardFan]

Garnett is the face of the franchise...

I think it would have to be really significant...

Marion and Barbosa?

It would be interesting to see Garnett and Amare on the same team...but they are basically the same player.

The Spurs have officially creamed their pants.

Um, don't you mean crapped their pants?

I'm about 50/50 now on this happening, although I think it might drag through the draft while Kerr tries to swing Marion for the young assets that McHale wants to go with Barbosa.

Um, no....

They couldn't be more different actually.

Love this part

Another big factor: Garnett and Suns guard Steve Nash, sources say, have become good friends over the past few years, starting in 2005 when Garnett was one of the first players in the league to call Nash and congratulate him on his first MVP trophy.

The Suns have a real chance at this now.

I think the Suns have had a real chance. I think the Boston rumors and Kobe rumore and Maggette rumors have all just been smoke screens. I think they have been working on a deal all week. No proof of this but just my gut feeling seeing as how until now things have been pretty quiet about the Suns Garnett deal on most media fronts.

I think all the other rumors have just been bargaining chips for Mchale and even the Suns.

I haven't been exicted about this talk until now. Right now.

Interesting thought and logical. I just never thought about it this way.

 

[TheCardFan]

Unless the Suns can find a team that Marion does want to play for..and that team has something significant to offer Minnesota...

Then the only deal that Minny would take from Phx for Garnett (IMO) is Amare.

 

[slinslin]

. Complicating matters further, Marion also has the right to become a free agent after the 2007-08 season and has also let it be known that he doesn't want to play in Minnesota or Boston, sources say. That stance quickly killed the possibility of a three-way deal involving Minnesota, Phoenix and Boston.

:angry:

With Shawn being one of my favorite all time Suns I couldn't care less where he wants to go. Get KG.
