I'm pretty sure we got a 2nd in the deal. Broussard just said we did on Sportsceneter.

Precursor for Gortat or JO trade?

I'm SHOCKED at how well Bassy played for the Suns and gladly admit I was very very wrong about his signing. But I'm not sad to see him go, I'm happy for him. He's been a good player the last couple years; he deserves to be playing in a regular rotation. But the Suns are going nowhere and it makes no sense to play him over Marshall or even Garrett. Best wishes, Bassy!

Can confirm Toronto & Phoenix agreed to deal sending Hamed Haddadi & protected 2nd round pick to Suns & PG Sebastian Telfair to Raps.

:roll:

Yep, wasn't a fan at all of Telfair when he first signed. However, the guy actually did play pretty well for us and I admit as well that I was wrong about him. Good luck to him in Toronto. Wonder if we plan to keep Haddadi or did we just do this to get back a 2nd round pick.

The protection on the second round pick coming back for Telfair is "complicated" and subject to league approval, per @Gambo620

The #Suns await league approval on sending Sebastian Telfair to Toronto for Hamed Haddadi & a 2nd-round pick (lowest of TOR & SAC in 2014).

He looks like a typical douchebag I'd see on any given day walking/driving around Los Angeles.

SMH.



.....thanks, Telfair. You were a model citizen here despite my concerns. I can appreciate that. See ya around, dude.

Supposedly he's one of the nicest guys in the league. Read that a few times on twitter.

"He sucks but...he's a great guy!"

Dude is large...I'll give him that much. If we need to send a bruiser in there to cause some chaos or give some hard fouls, we have our man.

Haddadi is the worst pick&roll defender in the history of this league. Still like him on our team, though.

Gambo backtracked. Said we'd keep him for a few games.

I really enjoyed Telfairs time here, but he has moved on to better things. Dont feel bad for him, he wanted this trade. He spends every summer playing with Gay/Lowery/Anderson at Impact Basketball in Vegas. Word is they have become a very very tight group and have mucho chemistry together.

Good luck Bassy! :D
