<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">The Hawks have tendered restricted free agent Joe Johnson of the Phoenix Suns a five-year, $70 million offer. There is belief around the league that Phoenix may not match the offer to the swingman, despite originally saying it would. The Suns have two huge contracts with forward Shawn Marion and guard Steve Nash and will eventually need to offer the maximum to keep all-star center Amare Stoudemire in the fold. If Phoenix doesn't match the Hawks' offer, it likely would benefit the Sixers. Atlanta, despite its desperate need for a center, would have less to offer either Dalembert or restricted Chicago free agent Eddy Curry, who has already visited the team. </div> Philadelphia Inquirer
I hope this isn't true because i want joe back but then that would leave some money left for free agents.
If JJ is all about the bills and we could get Finley in here.. then I wouldn't be too upset. As I've mentioned in the past, being a fan of the team first and players an often distant second, makes these off-season moves easier to handle.
That's true it makes our lives easier, but if there's a way to extend amare, get jj and keep Hunter then i would be very pleased. Even though we might only be able to extend amare and keep hunter.
