sounds like this trade was never very likely, thank Sweet Geebus, but here's a nice comparison of the two players

if it did happen I would have a very bad taste in my mouth for a long, long time


Damn - let's make a move for AR. Send Hedo and someone else, JRich, take AR, Chandler and Curry or maybe get Walker, Sarver saves a bunch of money .....

Curry is a no go, as he will be part of the Carmelo deal. I posted a 3-way on the trade board with Denver getting Curry/Gallo/Lopez/Clark, Knicks getting Melo, and Us getting AR/Chandler. Knicks said that it was too much to give up for Melo as they are looking at keeping Chandler and have good reason to. I would be almost open to taking AR/Turiaf instead of Chandler if it would make the trade go through.

Ok... so the Suns get rid of their only legitimate center for a PF "with a high ceiling"? :eyes roll:

I guess I was moreso commenting on the Chandler thing, but even Turiaf isn't that great as a starting option for C. Lopez, when healthy, can be a far better player than Turiaf has ever been.

The expectations are just too much for him to bear I guess.

Seriously? What expectations? All we ask if for him to get rebounds. Is it really that hard?

Its embarrassing we have a 4 page thread on Solomon Jones.... like this alleged dud for scrub deal will have any impact. Plus it has been completely refuted. If you want to talk about Dopez, make a thread about him.

Let this one die
