*RUMOR* Is Lopez being Traded??

Before i get flamed, my Dad lives in Portland and that is where i got my info.
Word is (in Portland) we are trading Lopez +filler + a 2nd rounddraft pick to Portland for Andre Miller + draft picks (2). But hold your horses because we are not done yet, from there we are trading Miller to New Orleans for.......... wait for it ............ just a little bit more ...............Peja Stojacovic + 2 draft picks. Ive ran this through the trade checker and dont see how (unless its a 3 way or we are also dumping Jrich), but that is the new rumor out of PDX. Personally i hate it. I'd rather have Jrich's 13 mill over 2 years then Peja's 13 mill over 2 years, but one of the Hornets draft picks is supposed to be an unrestricted 1st rounder for next year.
As i said it is a rumor out of Portland.
Maybe this has something to do with a certin glass door being busted up like Jenna Jameson's vagoo!?
I posted about this on the Portland board and am awaiting a response.
Thoughts???

Well if there have been discussions, maybe they talked to Lopez at practice today?

Uh, we'd probably need a big body coming out of this deal.

What's up with Peja's games played?
http://www.nba.com/playerfile/predrag_s ... stats.htmlDunno much about him, but I don't think I'd want him on our team. Is he oft-injured?

Well this deal makes sense for Portland and New Orleans, sorta, but makes no sense for the Suns. Why would we want Peja?

There will be no trade involving Lopez for Miller.

Exactly. Why would we do this? We lose a big body on the bench, for Peja? Makes no sense, we don't really need what he can offer.

Peja shoots 3 pointers.
Kerr loves 3 point shooters.
Sh*t, I can actually see this happening...
Plus, now that Oden is out i'm sure they are looking for a mediocre big to fill his void.
If we are gonna get Miller just to trade to the Hornets, why not get Bayless too and send Tucker, Griffin, and Miller to the Hornets and get Peja and Hilton Armstrong? Don't know how it would work out, but I would like this lineup.
Nash/Dragic/Bayless
J-Rich/Barbosa
Hill/Dudley
Amare/Peja
Frye/Armstrong

Interesting...almost sounds too elaborate to come out of nowhere
Hmm obviously no specifics but how confident of a connection is this? Or is it more just word on the street in Portland?

I cant see it happening either and HOPE it doesnt happen! There might be other players involved as Lopez = 1.7mill, Miller = 6.5mill, and Peja = 13.3 mill. I just dont see why we need Peja and why the Hornets need Miller (Ihear the have a good PG in some guy named Paul something). We need Bigs, not another 3 point shooting wing!

He heard it from mutilple sources.
1.a co-worker
2. from a friend
3. another friend
4. The radio? He says he caught the end of whoever is Portlands Gambo&Ash. Didnt know if they were talking about Lopez, but assumed after hearing it from other people.
