    They made a few bad moves. Trading Bo Outlaw, a vet, and releasing Brevin Knight, a vet. Now Scott is gone. I think that Bobby Sura would be a free agent after this season. He'd be a good fit for the Suns.

    Brevin Knight was'nt released. We traded him for Jahidi White, We should have realeased Howard Eisley and kept Charlie Ward IMO.

    All the moves made this year were to cut money off the cap for this year and the future... so you can't say they were bad moves if we have a really good offseason.

    The rumor is the Suns are going to bribe the Bobcats with the Knicks pick to take Eisley in the Expansion Draft. Yeah it sounds weird but it's worth it to take his salary off the Suns' payroll. He's a very good backup point guard with pretty good knowledge of the game, he's worked with John Stockton so he's learned a thing or 2.... problem is for a good backup he makes too much money. So hopefully Charlotte can take him, though we have to give them the Knicks pick, but it won't be that good anyway with them making the playoffs.

    Besides by using the draft pick to get Eisley's contract out of here, it allows Phoenix to get a good free agent with the money, so if they use their money right it's like they used that draft pick on the FA.... and he'll be ready as soon as he gets here instead of having to wait for a rookie to develop!!

    you have explained that eisley situation so many times lol. It would be totally worth it to get rid of eisley and give up that nw york pick.
