I wouldn't say it's not happening. Warriors' board seems to think it is

-Bellinelli and Wright both not on their Summer squad
-We have Biedrins' best bud on our summer league roster
-there are no ads, features or videos with Stat, apart from the Mercury one with Sarver

Trade may still happen with you guys, but I doubt those are great clues.

Marco and BWright are in their third year. Most guys only do summer league for their first two anyway.

Biedrens friend on your summer league roster is more than likely mere coincidence. If the deal goes down, you got AB for a few more years (at the bargain price of $9 mil a year) so there's no reason to kowtow to him.

As Stein and others have said. I can see the trade being re-approached as it has on and off since February.

I haven't been this frustrated with the suns since they the Joe Johnson trade. What the hell is our FO doing? I truly miss Jerry Col angelo and how creative he used to be with the free agents. Why is it so freaking hard to trade for Tyson? Do you seriously want to give the Thunder the 1st pick in the 2010 draft!!

I know that we don't have the flexibly to sign top notch free agent. But can you honestly not trade for an active center who the guy your building around(steve nash) is asking for?

TRADE FOR CHANDLER NOW!! Before he's shipped to NY.. This is so frustrating!!!

The fact that we are 'chandler-less' may be from NO's lack of urgency to deal him just for cash savings. It leaves them rather weak at the 5 and sends a clear message to their resident Superstar. Plus, their record w/TC compared to w/o him is significantly better.

I would not be surprised if they will receive a more attractive offer with a combination of $$ saving and talent. And I'll bet they would like to dump Peja's or others(?) too. Read a little on their boards and you will see it is not a deal that is embraced wholeheartedly by the hive.
