What's the deal with Marion? He didn't get the contract extension with Miami, is Toronto going to extend him or do a S/T?

Any possible chance we could see the Matrix back in Phoenix?

In this state that we're in right now, even if he did want to come back, he probably wouldn't now.


Again, too expensive as well

I thought the Colangelos persuaded him to play cheap in Toronto?

Still more than what we could and am willing to pay him.

the only chance to get him back is nash. shawn should realize that he was that good when he played besides nash. steve knows when to get him in action - his numbers this year weren´t that good as we used to. so if he would be available for the mle i woud welcome him in here..

in an ideal world we'd keep Amare, get Chandler, sign marion to a one year MLE deal

Nash
Richardson
Trix
Amare
Chandler

:pray:

Marion's only gonna end up with the MLE most likely. It'd be hard for him to come back when he probably took it hard that Kerr said he wasn't a max player.

I bet he wishes now he agreed to the trade with Boston in that 3way and got that huge extension.

Barbosa replicates Richardson's production at half the price. He's younger and he's a better citizen. Why would anybody want to keep Richardson over Barbosa?

6'6 225 compared to 6'3 202 to small to be a starting guard unless a point which he isnt

im all for keeping barbs and trading rich but we need a starting sg in return

Defintely would keep and start Barbosa over Richardson.


Barbosa is more like 6/3 and a half, with a crazy wingspan. Richardson is trash on the defensive end..

j-rich will explode in his second season with us - barbs never bring everything he can. he should be our starter even before the raja trade and couldn´t get past an old bell... forget him and trade him.
