Have the Suns ever been in the lottery with their own pick in consecutive years? I can't recall a Suns team that missed the playoffs consecutive years.
You have to admit they are in a troubling position after this season with age, big contracts and very few picks...they won't be competing for a few years. They may make it in as a low seed one year, but they are goin gto be bad.

If the decision is between Artest and Diaw, I'll admit I'm tempted. If Diaw plays like I' hope he will, I think we'd regret it. But there is no doubt Artest can be an exceptional player when he's not off his head.

Tempted? It's a no brainer!

A no brainer with a better chance of coming to fruition now that he has demanded a trade.

I still doubt it happens, but getting Artest would no doubt be an upgrade over Diaw and might help put us over the edge.

I'd be so stoked if we got Artest. I dont care if he is a headcase.

Besides he hasn't killed anyone....not lately.

Window is shutting rapidly. At this point, you have to gamble and take some risk. I say bring him in if there is a way to do it.

If the choice was between Boris Diaw and Ron Artest you'd have to choose the latter. The problem is that there's no way in hell the Kings would swap those two players. So the question is this. What do you think would be enough to pry him away from Sacramento without giving away too much? Unlike Chris, I believe the price is quite high for Ron Artest.
