I would give up one of the draft picks to see him in Phoenix. Still I don't belive Hawks let him go.

I'd gladly see the Suns take Childress and a draft pick for Johnson. Unfortunately, this sounds like one of those He Said-She Said ordeals.

When JJ signs the Suns contract and the paperwork is sent to the Commissioners office.

OR, JJ can throw some crap out there and instead of signing the Suns contract, he could sign the Hawks offer sheet, and the Suns would have to match to retain him or lose him for nothing.

I would have been nice to do a three team trade and get some players back instead of picks.

I think something is going on behind closed doors. The question is whether the fans will ever find out?

How exciting... Childress in Phoenix! I would give up both picks to have him over Diaw.

Maybe the Suns are trying Isiah's tactics with Atlanta. :D

Are you crazy? I'd like to have Childress over Diaw myself, but not at the expense of both picks. The Lakers pick next year isn't all that appealing but the Atlanta pick in 2007 only being top 3 protected then not at all in 2008. Now that's got some love with it.

if you are saying that we probably won't see them because the Phoenix Suns will trade them first I can understand. If you are saying we won't see them because of the protection I think you better arrange eight trip to the hospital and call your cardiologist absolutely no later than the 2008 draft. The Atlanta pick is unprotected by then.

Personally I think the Los Angeles Lakers will contend for one of the last couple playoff spots this next season.

Unless they pick up another big man, I'm not so sure. A front court of Odom, Walton, Kwame, Brian Grant and Brian Cook is NOT good. At all.

Yuma, did you ever get the all-star video from me? I sent it and it was returned, sent it again and never got it back, so I'm hoping you did. :D

No. I tried to PM you per this site to say it was cool if you couldn't get it to me. ;) My messages didn't seem to get delivered to you. You must have had computer problems again... :(
