But another source acknowledged the discussion, but also said the Suns were quickly turned down.

Realgm has it wrong.

wth, I'm boycotting the wiretap from now on

One source acknowledged that the two teams discussed a trade, but another said that the Suns quickly turned down the swapl

more bogus rumors please!

[Winter Wonder]

Kinda funny how the picture they show on RealGm's front page with the trade not happening is Jefferson with his arms up like he is asking, "What the Hell?". That's what we want to know Al, WTH is going on.

I'm sick of all these rumours. Bring on the real pain!

Pretty sure the wiretap got that backwards since it doesn't match the last paragraph of Kahn talking to Jefferson to assure him he's not going anywhere.

Kahn: "Don't worry Big Al, those trade rumors were incorrect. I mean we tried like the dickens to ship you're butt out of here, but unfortunately the Suns are too stupid to let us just give you away for damaged goods. Better luck next time big guy. How's the knee? Can't wait til November. Go Pacers, er I mean Wolves. BEEP BEEP! Um, AROOOOOOO!!!!!!"

The deal didn't go down, becuase Amare would never re-up in Minny

^^^^FALSE

This trade didnt happen because it was never offered to begin with lol. The wolves wouldnt even do it str8 up. THis was a totally bogus rumor from the onset. Enough said get over it

The deal didn't go down because the Wolves would rather have Jefferson than Amare, and no chance in hell we'd add in the #6 pick.

I think most of the A.P. wiretap articles have been offshored to India these days. Maybe this wiretap is the same?

[mnWI]

Kind of like when a newspaper says this:

Sure. The New Jersey Nets are said to be willing to part with point guard Devin Harris. The Griz should ponder if Harris is worth the second pick.

And the wiretap changes to the language to this:

The Nets are "said to be willing to part with point guard Devin Harris" to land the second overall pick in next Thursday's NBA Draft.

It's all a bad game of plagiarize-avoiding telephone.
