So what? They weren't at the start of the season either. I'm not saying they shouldn't trade Nash, I'm saying I don't see how this makes a Nash trade more probable.

The point is that Suns aren't really interesting in winning but the bottom line. I am sure if there is a good offer for him and that the Suns aren't a playoff team by the TD they would be more inclined to trade him for esp if they get a good prospect and picks.

We've been among the league leaders in salaries since Sarver got here. We don't save any money in this trade. There's a difference between being cheap and incompetent. You have no idea what you are talking about.

Pietrus has a team option for $5.3 mill. We also got 3million back from ORL. We saved money, acquired a pick and a big.

The things Hedo has gotten away with are unbelievable. Dude never wanted to leave ORL, he just wanted his contract. We reward him with that contract. Does jack all in Toronto, gets traded to PHX, does jack all there, and now he returns to ORL with his $10 mill a year. smh

Post from another thread. So true.

So, aspiring GMs, now you know.

If you're not sure a player is worth a large contract, let him get a big deal on another team, make sure he underperforms as you feared, then trade for him 2 years later.

Wow, best team in the East IMO.

Talk about total recall.

The part I like the most about the trade is Orlando getting Turkoglu back as he was the key compliment to Howard on their run to the finals. If they use him in the same roll where he is the point forward creating offense for himself and his teammates, they will be a very hard team to defend.

They should go after Nash for having to include Hedo, give them picks plus Nelson.

thebossman · Post #377 » by **thebossman** » Sat Dec 18, 2010 8:09 pm

I like this move by Orlando. They essentially got a self induced window of 2 years (uncertainty of dwight signing or not) and have decided to go all in.

Arenas although not the same as he was in the past is still a game changer. And given starting minutes this year has done well. Who knows with his new life perspective it may work to be better for ORL.

Jrich is good but wont be as good as he was in PHX. But motivated playing on a contender.

Hedont... no comment.

Lets just hope Jameer doesnt get all pissy about his lack of touches.

The key to Orlando's run was Boston missing KG..
