Just seeing Beasley on the court, he rubs me the wrong way. I didn't like his personality much when talking to Kevin Love in some Rucker Park special before they were drafted.

However, he seemed more annoying than troublesome. If they can't manage a Gay three-way (sorry, pun intended) and instead decide to take JJ Hickson over Beasley, that seems crazy. That said, I can't disagree with such a move yet, as I have barely watched any Heat or Cavs games this season, so I have not scouted these players much.


Nothing's crazy in Sarver/Kerr land.

You have not proved to me that LB is injured quite a bit. I think your math is off when you say he misses one out of five games (20%). In any regard, if you take take into account LB only missed significant time to injury this season, his track record is quite good.

Also games missed does not necessarily mean games missed due to injury.

Wow, are you really that stubborn to admit youre wrong? You said before this year his injury history was minor. But once I put it in the "he misses 1 in every 5 games" format it sounds alot worse doesnt it?

Its not like he missed 50 games due to his mom dying. The dude is pretty much always banged up. Twisted testicle, hamstring, wrist, elbow.

I think phoenix fans tremendously over rate barbosa because hes a good ole boy. Most of you guys are living in 06 when he was putting up 18 a game.

Talk about stubborn, it seems you have a big dose of it and I don't believe your stats are right (as I walked through it before). I'm sure you will be pushing for LB to miss every game for the rest of the season just so you can say, LB missed another game. I'm tired of you beating up on LB for no good reason other than he got injured prior to the season and tried to play through it before having surgery.

Anyway enough already. The trading deadline cannot come quick enough for me.

I have a lot of faith in LB that he will come back from this injury and put up better stats. He still has the ability to score alot, so dont write him off just yet. I reckon he is one of the most underrated players in the league. I remember at the end of last season, when Amare had his eye injury, LB took up the scoring load.. but then he got injured... =.=

If this is true, that is the most DISGUSTING thing I have ever heard.. when I orginally started this post, I said if the the Heat offered the package of Beasley/Oneil/#1 for Stat while getting rid of Richardson that would be the best case scernio and a DREAM for the suns...

And now it is coming out they rejected it??? and are seriously considering the Hickson/Z deal?

ARE YOU F-ING KIDDING ME??

Ignore Vecsey, except for the laughs. He's the most ill-informed beat writer out there. I think his "sources" do it to him on purpose.

Who wouldn't be down for that? As long as ALL our FA dollars went to 4s and 5s, we'd be set up right for the future for the first time, maybe, EVER....

Come on man. I know you like to have have wanted to blow this thing up for a while now, but trading Marbury, drafting Amare, and signing Nash 'set us up for the future' for a couple of years to make a run. We made a damn good one too. We are back to being a 1st round and out team again.

I really hope we don't hear that this was a proposed option as time goes on. Beasley is so far superior to any offer out there it isn't even funny. To be able to get rid of Richardson's bloated contract, and also to pick up a mid round 1st? Kerr and Sarver would be complete idiots to not pull the trigger, which is what currently terrifies me.

Arguing with Josh about Barbosa is futile, the dude just don't like him. I cant believe a fan would actually say LB cant create his own shot, he is one the best instant offense off the bench for the price in the league. I hope he comes back fully healthy and stick it to josh. :D

Don't trade LB. Once back from the wrist injury, he'll be fire off the bench. He's a great value for production and should stay on the Suns.

The Nets can smell Wall. They would never trade that 1st pick for a possible Amare rental.

Actually, the deal being discussed in Beasley, Richardson or some other expiring contract, AND their 2 first rounders...

Even too gooder to be true!!!!!

Trade Amare for youth AND 2 #1's while KEEPING Barbosa-Dragic-Amundson-Dudley-Lopez-Clark. Seriously?

Sign me on to calling this the greatest blow up ever!!!!

Just to chime in on LB. The dude was not shooting well with the cyst, but was nails coming off the bench before that. That being said, his injury was the best thing ever for Dragic, who has gotten a lot more playing time since LB has been out. I think LB is valuable to us, but Gentry HAS to find a way to bring LB back without reducing Dragic's time, or Dudley's, Frye's, or any of the second teams guys that have been so effective for us lately.

They're saying that the Suns have ZERO interest in Beasley... They would look to trade him ASAP, possibly to Philly for Iguadala... which would mean we get two first rounders (16th and 18th picks) and Iguadala for Amare. Not too shabby at all!

EDIT: Gambo just said that the Suns would most likely need to toss in someone else along with Beasley to get Iguadala. I'm not so sure about that...

Not bad 82! Hopefully this is all not just conjecture. The deals seem to be getting sweeter the longer we wait.

Hey, I'm all about turning Beasley (and, say, JRich) into Iguodala.

I don't like Iggy's contract, he's a legit star.

Nash-Iggy-Hill-#16-Lopez

#18-Dragic-Barbosa-Dudley-Clark-Amundson

I'd still want to trade Nash somehow (again, not because I dislike him - I'm just in full on blow up mode)....

If only we can move jrich as well. 16th and 18th picks in the first round don't exite me.
