    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Phoenix is in discussions with the Philadelphia 76ers which would bring guard John Salmons to Arizona, the East Valley Tribune is reporting.

    No deal has been struck, but league sources confirmed that Salmons is a player the Suns have targeted. Sixers general manager Billy King is believed to be weighing more than one possible offer for the 6-foot-6, 210-pound Salmons, who scored a career-best 7.6 points to go with 2.7 rebounds and 2.7 assists last season while playing in all 82 games and starting 24.

    Phoenix?s offer is believe to be a second-round draft pick and the team?s $3.6 million trade exception, obtained last summer in the Joe Johnson trade with Atlanta. That exception expires after one year and must be used by Aug. 21</div>

    Diaw was supposed to be a backup too. He was supposed to backup Nash @ PG
