Amare 26min/Lopez 15min/Frye 7min

That lineup has 8th seed written all over it, the Lakers might rape us

GOOD!!!!! Better than lottery!!

Can't argue with that, at least we'll have 2 home playoff games

we are close to buying out wallace

Good article. So, that's pretty crazy... Hill could have made $5.24 million in one season with New York, but instead took Phoenix's offer that will pay at most $6.24 million over two seasons.

You've got to appreciate a decision like that... he must really enjoy Phoenix.

Man i don't care if we get swept in the first round, at least we tried. The lottery SUCKS...especially since we don't have a pick!

i think we'll surprise some people this season...a full season of Nash/Amare/Gentry will be awesome. Not going to lie though...SSOL w/ Amare averaging 29 next to Shaq will be missed.

Amare will play center sometimes, but push Frye to the center so Amare is freed up at the PF position.

wow, if the suns are that stupid to pay Nash that much, we are (Please Use More Appropriate Word)!

Gambo on twitter reports:

Channing Frye deal for 2 yrs and 1.9 each is expected to be done today. Suns likely done after this but could add one more when Pavlovic cut

and

Steve Nash and his agent will meet with Suns brass next week in Vegas to finalize a 2-year extension for 20 mill. He has 1 year left at 13.

Makes sense now. 20+13=33

few, that sounds more like it. The morons on Yahoo cant get it right I guess.

IF they bring in another player, I hope it is a vet PG. I have no confidence in Tragic as backup.

i like Tragic as a backup but i also want him to have some competition....DJ STRAWBERRY FTW!

Shoals is one of my favorite writers(FreeDarko) and was one of the main proponents of the SSOL Suns so that hurts to read

Both of these articles fail to mention that WE DON'T HAVE OUR 2010 DRAFT PICK. It's one thing to say "why don't the Suns just rebuild?" Easy to say that when you don't factor that in. We're staying competitive but still staying flexible and keeping our options open for 2010. Really all Kerr can do with a cheap owner.

Again, it doesn't help an owner's stigma when he makes boneheaded trades and sells picks, but we had the 7th highest payroll in the league.

DirtyDez · Post #78 » by **DirtyDez** » Fri Jul 10, 2009 8:19 pm

Gambo also says we have signed Earl Clark

Wait, did Gambo beat IHG to the punch??? Had to say it man, could not resist.

The KT trade was pretty much a franchise killing combination of both cheapness and boneheadedness... But I digress - the dead horse has been beaten way too many times

This is the first good day for Suns fans this summer, let's not ruin it
