    <div class="quote_poster">Quoting AllNet:</div><div class="quote_post">The Suns do need a center but you don't trade away a star like Marion away for an average center who can score a little and rebound. Thats what you call undervalueing what Marion brings to the table.

    Joe Johnson should be the guy who should be on the block, not the matrix.</div>
    Quentin Richardson is the one that should be on the block [​IMG]

    would rather have him starting SF,JJ proved himself but he should understand that Marion should get the start instead of him,JJ will still get solid minutes and maybe he could come in and try to run PG a little.To me there would be no point to trade Marion when he is arguably the best player on the the Suns.</div>
    If all thes guys remain, Q-Rich will be the one coming off the bench, not Marion or JJ. Marion and Amare are up there for Suns best player, Nash isnt ahead of Marion, he's good, but still, if he had defense.

    Sorry, I must of missed the great joke you just cracked. Joe Johnson proved he can score and get some stats after the Marbury trade but has he proved he can do it consistantly? He got benched in favour to Penny Hardaway and is suddenly hyped up because of his performances in the 2nd half of the season.

    Q is the more talented and overall player so If there was a choice between the two, you have to pick Q.

    Suns don't have any real use for JJ, he could be effective coming off the bench but trading him for a center would be the best option. I would ring up Denver and ask them If they are willing to part with Nene for Johnson. Would fit both teams needs.

    The big question for me is where Casey Jacobsen fits in all this...if they indeed keep all these guys (JJ, Marion, Q), Jacobsen would seem to be the odd-man out...it is all the more interesting because this will be his 3rd season, and he might become a FA after the season (team option)...this could make him a valuable trade commodity. I would love to see him back in the L.A. area somehow

    that's my thought, trading casey and some other reserve. having either JJ or Q starting with the other off the bench will have them set at the 2 not only all game, but all season. For the small crop of C still left to pick up, i wouldn't trade JJ for any of them.
