    Why do you think Phoenix has done so well in the past with free agents? Hell yes the weather is a factor for some.

    So dumb to me. I just can't process the idea of weather into a deciding factor.

    I'm pretty sure winters in Chicago are terrible, but FAs go there.

    They don't have the cap space for Robin and LMA. They would have to do a sign and trade to get both. LMA said he won't play center there.

    Doesn't help us as we are under the cap and trade exception takes up your cap space. It would be a wash.

    The Suns need to make a move to get him and Chandler. Other teams can do that for Phoenix but we could probably get PJ Tucker or some other asset. Maybe a first round pick. Getting Len would be difficult but not necessarily impossible.

    I think we force any team that wants to take him to ditch other players or force players to take a massive pay cut. In other words, no S&T unless we get a ton of picks and expiring contracts.

    How would you feel if they traded your brother, and then brought in a player in your position to start in front of you? Well, that's how Markief Morris is feeling right now.

    Oh I'm sure they would offer him to us. But with his assault charges I don't think the Blazers want to deal with that PR mess.

    I dunno, buy low, sell high - and I don't mean Damon Stoudamire "high" either.

    Lot of hot ASU chicks, but I consider that Tempe. The whole valley is loaded.
