    speculating = making things up

    facts = what happened

    KP obtained Rudy with the trade exception obtained in the ZR trade, so the facts don't fit your rant... but I'm petty :rolleyes2:

    KP obtained James Jones with the trade exception. Rudy was for cash as you can't obtain draft picks using trade exceptions, only players salaries.

    Since you are being petty.

    Adding Steve Blake to this team was a good move. He played a significant role last season. He had a terrible series against Houston, and most of us realize that replacing him with a better starting guard is one way we can improve this team.

    It's just the beginning of the off-season. Chill out.

    good grief dude... take a look in the mirror, you're pettiness is off the charts.

    The James Jones + Rudy trade used the trade exception acquired in the ZR trade and Blazer brass sited it as a key to the deal happening. Those are facts. You can speculate/make shit up that possibly these deals could have been separated and PHX might have dealt just Rudy for cash without JJ involved, but facts are it didn't happen that way... PHX wanted the exception.
