There's talk that the Suns -- to slash payroll -- might be willing to take the No. 5 pick, Theo Ratliff's expiring contract and Delonte West for Shawn Marion. That would make Paul Pierce happy.</div>

    Seems like a good trade for the Suns, but what would they do with Delonte West, considering that they have Nash and Barbosa.

    And what would Boston do without Delonte West, I guess they have Rajan Rondo, and Sebastian Telfair. (or he got waived?)

    I don't think Boston does this trade.

    I think it'd be good if instead of West, it's Powe; like Skip said they don't need West, considering they have Barbs, Nash, Banks.

    I`d be suprised if this went down.

    Is Phoenix ready to give up on Marion already?

    They haven't given up on Marion, but the Suns have salary cap issues, and Marion would get them back more value in a trade than Boris Diaw would.

    Isn't Marion kind of known for sulking? I'm not accusing, I'm legitimately curious.
