http://blogs.chron.com/jeromesolomon/2009/02/post_75.html When pressed for more info by someone who posted on his blog: JS, you know you are wrong for throwing out the teaser. You got to at least give us a hint or something. Inquiring minds want to know! --------------------------------------------------------- As you know, I don't throw stuff out there just for a reaction, but I can't burn the source on this one until it's closer to being a done deal.
Not only that... Jason Friedman just tweeted that he's getting ready for the winds of change. I'm nervous!
No I don't think it'll be Nash, but if he's reporting it I believe. Something good is goin down! Hit em up Morey! Hit em up!
ron and rafer for nash and filler. just had lunch with morey here in phx. (j/k) i never believed phx when they said nash would be the last piece for sale. rafer has the experience of feeding a big center (plus they have barbosa), ron gives them cap relief one year earlier. why not?
Well, this is a tough one. We can rule out all the Amares, Carters and anyone else thats been talked about. But that leaves just about everyone else. From Kobe to Ryan Bowen. Only trades I think would make most people happy is a major one.
He has been known to bag on Rafer a lot in his blog, including here: http://blogs.chron.com/jeromesolomon/2009/01/post_57.html. I think he refers to Rafer as "4 for 13" a lot. I cringe, but also laugh a little.
Calling Doc Rocket......... I saw this this morning too and got me wondering. I'm actually surprised the information isn't here. Saying that, he does mention PHX in the article and how they're in the same boat as us. I wonder if that hints towards Nash. He's getting up there in age, but at least he gives his all. Plus his game isn't reliant on athleticism. If we can get him, I'll go ahead and forgive him for his part in the skirmish earlier this year. Ha!
I dont think he is speaking of Rafer as the little talked about guy, I think he meant who we will get in return (for Ron?). The canidates could be endless.
could it be Mike Bibby??? You don't hear his name coming up. It's basically Artest, Amare, Shaq, Carter, Mike Miller, Josh Howard, and Marion who was traded but maybe its Bibby
I just don't want all of us to be deceived. Like we are all hoping that its going to be a wonderful Splash!, then Solomon says it was Head for a draft pick...
