No worries In2 -- great minds think alike! Superbone -- I am motivated by really wanting Dragic to stick around...

Awesome. You and me both. I hate how he's constantly rumored to be on the outs.

Minny: Kevin Love for Kyrie Irving (long-term contract), the Morris Twins + draft pick from PHX
Phoenix: Bledsoe + Morris Twins + Draft pick for Kevin Love
I'd do it for the Suns, but I don't think Cleveland considers it. I can't see them giving up Irving, and if they did, there is no way it is for Bledsoe+ when Kevin Love is also in the scenario. The Wolves get more for Love than they can dream, although Rubio and Irving together is far from ideal. The value for them is huge anyway.

I feel bad for the guy. He really gave it his all. Oh except the whole practicing his jumper. :)

He did play hard for us though and I hope he gets picked up by another team.

Yep, liked Ish but knew it was inevitable. I'm sure he knew too. Ennis was one thing but IT2 was the final straw for him. Best of luck to Ish and I hope he makes another roster.

Channing Frye has a bit of a pot-shot at the Suns on his way out
"I felt like they were saving money for other things," Frye said. "They were not close enough to me to take it seriously, which makes sense. It's a business.

That's disappointing. No mention of the excellent care of our med staff that saved his life? Just the old "I wasn't wanted" bullshit.
Go Suns!

Not a fan of that statement by Channing. He was treated very well in Phoenix.
“Kobe had said (after the play) I wasn’t hugged enough as a child,” Bell recalled. “My mom kind of found him after the instance and we had beat them and offered him a hug in the bowels of the Phoenix arena. She really feels a part of that story.”

Gratitude, where are you?

Frye boy, even if the offer is miles apart, best you can do is to keep your mouth shut, after a full year where the franchise stood up for you. Channing, just take look at Emeka Okafor to see the difference between a side note, and a member of the Suns family.
