Same thing I was thinking. Unless Les is threatening to clean house, I don't think Morey makes any deal which clogs up the cap. Considering that Les has a long history of loving to have big names on the roster (both players and coaches), I don't think he's issued any ultimatums to make the playoffs "at all cost".
I just want to win so I keep getting in spats with my coach & the organization. I really want out of here so I keep getting in spats with my coach & the organization. :grin: <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">My frustration got the best of me last night.

Morris isn't worth Jones anymore with Morris' contract situation. I would only deal him straight up for Brewer.
The more I hear about Markieff, the more I don't want him. If we wait patiently, I think Smoove will become available. I heard that if the Clips don't find suitors for him, they'll just waive him. If we were to trade Brewer and T-Jones, I think it should be for Kevin Martin, obviously being a 3-team deal with Brewer and Jones going elsewhere.
Hard to believe the Clippers will waive Smith knowing some other Western Conference team can/will pick him up. And he's making so little. I guess maybe if he becomes an unbearable "cancer" but I doubt it.
I'm with you on this one. But we need to shake something else out of phx for taking Keef off their hands. Brewer is still a vet asset that could probably help their team. I like PJ Tucker but the salary matching may be tricky.
Nene is a potential buyout candidate as well. Both sides might be inclined, especially if Washington could get a trade to its liking for a wing/shooter.
He didn't intend to hit his coach with the towel and it was his teammates that told him he did? What crap. I changed my opinion on Keef. Don't get him here. He has completely lost it. At this point I rather have Brew. Just this year and next year and then we can dump him.
What's the fascination with this guy? Is it get rid of Brewer & Jones at all costs? http://www.azcentral.com/story/spor...s-suspend-markieff-morris-two-games/77885790/
What's funny is I thought Marcus was the hothead and Kief was cool. This has changed my perception a ton. But, I still believe a change of venue might be what he needs, just like Marcus, who's blossoming in Detroit.
I'm not really too excited about trading for this guy. He doesn't really do anything very well that I can see. Also, I would be more comfortable bringing him aboard if we still had McHale. I think McHale would be able to handle nut cases better than JB.
He was the more calm and "logical" one of the two. Didn't create problems until Marcus got there. But apparently now Markieff has picked up a lot of bad behaviours and outdone his big bro. I dont' know if a change will help him. But the Suns coach is not respected by anyone in the lockeroom not just Morris. Wouldn't be surprised if he's fired very soon.
