<div class="quote_poster">Quoting shapecity:</div><div class="quote_post"> Source One step closer to bringing back JJ.</div> This is really big! One step closer to signing Steven Hunter as well.
Not really much help. I will miss Voskuhl. He was a hard worker and played well for us. Hnter is asking for too much money, same with JJ. But with this money and somethey save from Eisley's contract(I don't understand it yet)they can sign Finley and a decent big man also. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> This move combined with the new amnesty clause (Phoenix plans to ask for relief from Howard Eisley's contract) should do the trick.</div> Someone explain that, and how much money we save.
The Allan Houston Rule in the new CBA will allow the Suns to cut the remaining salary of Howard Eisley ($6,906,250) off the books. Along with Jake Voskul the Suns will save roughly $8,843,750.
