Re: Around the League: September
He is not being forced. He is voluntarily selling his stake in the team. We can only speculate about what discipline, if any, would have been coming his way.

Re: Around the League: September
Not as ugly as the Sterling situation, but still ugly. From the excerpts I've read, it sounds like he's saying, "I don't agree with these racist attitudes, but I think we can enhance our bottom line by pandering to them." It's not a socially responsible attitude, but I can understand why i...

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]
I think he has decided. Where he wants to be is not here, and who he wants to be is not a Phoenix Sun. Why rush to sign the QO? He still has a few weeks left, and there's still a chance that one of the other 29 teams in the league will show interest in acquiring him. Not that his agent is burning up...

https://twitter.com/WojYahooNBA/status/508027194816593920 Isn't that Woj saying Rich Paul is an idiot? Can anyone imagine a contract impasse like this happening with a legitimate superstar, and not reading a dozen stories every day about 29 other teams trying to find a way to take advantage of the ...

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]
"Break bread" is an interesting choice of terms, considering insider reports that there is "zero communication" because Bledsoe's camp is refusing to sit down and negotiate.

Re: Eric Bledsoe [RFA]
Always tweeting and instagramming about hanging out with players from other NBA teams. Has he even spoken to any of his Suns teammates since the end of the season?

Re: Suns News: September
Still, the best case scenario is a happy EB on the Suns with a 54 million or less contract. Is there something magical about the 54 million number or is it just an upgrade over 48? I'm not trying to be sarcastic... just wondering where the new number came from. If EB takes the QO and then gets a ma...

So, US Airways isn't keeping the naming rights on the arena. Joanna Allhands chimes in with tongue-in-cheek suggestions of 5 new names for US Airways Center featuring Intel, Target, Raytheon, Walmart (:vomit:) and Banner as sponsors. Can we come up with something better? Actually, Allhands' "In...

Re: Suns News: September
No. He has to terminate then re-sign. Technically, he doesn't have to opt out. If he doesn't opt out, he'll become eligible to negotiate an extension next summer. But why would he opt to delay his raise a year, given that he's obviously getting one? One way or the other, next summer is the soonest ...

Re: Suns News: September
NotTraxxe has posted on realgm that the Bledsoe situation will be solved in favor of keeping the player. Apparently the Suns will up the offer close to the deadline. 13.5M per, 5 years with a team option. The plan supposedly is to frontload the contract so in practice Bledsoe doesn't have anything ...

Re: House approves lawsuit against President Obama
Blaming Obama for the turmoil in Libya and Iraq is pretty stupid, Dan.
