Morrow agreed to a three-year, $12 million offer sheet with New Jersey on Saturday. Now, the restricted free agent is on his way to Nets.
@RicBucher Do Diaw/Barbosa, reunited in Tor, take a photo, a la Wade/Bosh, w/an empty chair between them + tweet, "Someone's missing"? (i.e., Nashty) about an hour ago

Suns Make Some Moves: The Phoenix Suns will miss Amar'e Stoudemire, there is little doubt about that, but since agreeing to sign-and-trade Stoudemire to New York the Suns have made a series of moves that could turn out to be very good for the team in the long run.
According to Paul Coro of the Arizona Republic, the team has reached an agreement with long-time NBA agent Lon Babby to take over as President of Basketball Operations, Babby will be hiring a GM to handle the day-to-day of the team in the coming days.
Early in free agency the team reached terms on a new five-year, $30 million deal with Channing Frye and a four-year, $18 million sign-and-trade deal landing them Hakim Warrick.
Yesterday the Suns reached two more deals sending Leandro Barbosa and Dwyane Jones to the Toronto Raptors in exchange for Hedo Turkoglu (a Babby client). The Suns also reached terms on a sign-and-trade deal with Atlanta sending Josh Childress (a former Babby client) to Phoenix with a new five-year, $34 million contract.
While none of these new players are anywhere close to the caliber of Amar'e Stoudemire, the Suns are amassing a lot of nice depth and are picking up players that could thrive in Phoenix's up and down style of play.
Toss in second-round draft picks Gani Lawal and Dwayne Collins – both are expected to make the roster – and Phoenix, who was one of the league's deepest teams a season ago maybe getting substantially deeper.

Phoenix Suns
Current Power Ranking: 13 (3)
Estimated 2010 record: 54 - 28
The Suns made an effort to keep Amar'e Stoudemire but ultimately let the Knicks outbid them. If deals go through as expected, Phoenix will bring in Hedo Turkoglu along Josh Childress with Hakim Warrick. They've added some talent but lost significant size.

This is hilarious I don't even know what to say
even without Turk and Chil we are a solid playoff team.
People always underestimatethe heart and chemistry of a team. And the Suns will prove you doomsayers wrong once again next season

So if you're not a homer you're a doomsdayer? Interesting how the realistic posters get labeled as a hater or something and if a trade goes down where someone disagrees they can't talk about. News Flash, we finished 4 games ahead of the 8th seed last season. We're the only team in the west who lost a 2nd team all NBAer. Stop the propaganda.
