Len has exceeded the expectations of many this season.
It's a great story.
Well, so much for hopes and dreams ...

And the tweets by Stein mentioning Reggie Bullock to the Suns as part of the Rivers move to Boston seem to indicate that there's something in the works and that the 3pg experiment is at an end.
so IT and dragic are on the trading block. i assume bleds not in it only because it's tough to trade his contract.

it's mcdo's way of fixing the mess he created #bytradingawaydragic

but whatever he does, it's not going to save his job in the end.

Haha. We CLEARLY didn't need Iggy or Deng.
“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.”

Ironically, BC won EOTY that season.

I can't express how thankful I am for my time in Phoenix. To the fans, your support to the Suns and every one of its players has been unwavering and paramount in turning things around and helping the Suns get back to be the winning organization that it is. I will miss everyone, from the front office to the coaches to the training staff. Most of all, I'll miss my teammates. My brothers. Love yall. I can't wait to see you do damage in the playoffs in a few months. Now- time to go back to the team that gave me an opportunity a year and a half ago and restarted my NBA career. A team and city that's always been special to me. Thanks for having me back, #Boston.

It's not a rumor (unless it has morphed into one), it's just a stupid item on a columnist's list of suggestions for the Cavs.
