I am sick also...If we don't get 30 then BC went from Exec of the year to Bonehead of the year.

 

[SunsFan]

even if we get #30 this is not a good trade its a wash at best

He went from bonehead from last years draft to executive of the year back to bonehead.

 

[spikecop02]

Sun will probaly trade that future pick before next year for a second round pick.

 

[az1965]

BC of old... Sorry, I don't like this trade anymore... Right now I'm just pissed...

 

[Yuma]

KT and Dijon Thompson > Q and Robinson, imho!

 

[mribnik]

Hey, a future first would be nice! I might be the only one, but I actually like this trade a lot! I'm sure Q and Robinson are probably worth more than Kurt Thomas in general, but I believe on this Phoenix Suns team, Kurt Thomas will have more value than Q and Robinson. Hopefully we get a future first!

 

[mribnik]

hmmm, I hope this part isn't true...

NEW YORK, June 28, 2005 – New York Knickerbockers President of Basketball Operations Isiah Thomas announced today that guard/forward Quentin Richardson, the draft rights to Nate Robinson, the 21st pick in the 2005 NBA Draft, and cash considerations have been acquired from Phoenix in exchange for forward Kurt Thomas and the draft rights to Dijon Thompson, the 54th pick in the 2005 NBA Draft.

What's that all about? On suns.com however it makes no mention of cash considerations.

Perhaps they got that money from selling the Gortat pick. This means the deal was worse for the Suns, but for some reason and makes me feel better than believing that Sarver just kept the money for himself.

people are overeacting a little. We needed this trade in the best way and although losing the 21st pick is not great it's not like we can't get a guy like robinson cheap through free-agency.

Like we did last year?

Remember Yuta Tabuse? He's exactly like Nate Robinson, right?
