    Clutch,

    Do you think that if JVG gets a head coaching job, he might be willing to trade FOR Rafer?

    Since he clearly believes so much in him?

    Depends on how long he hopes to keep that job, I guess.

    You might as well hang the sign for next years champions if the Suns get first pick.

    Except it's top 3 protected for the Hawks.

    they wont, the best the suns can do is get the 4th pick but even with that it could be scary. imagine sending the #4/5, the #21 (their own) and marion to the wolves for kg.

    the wolves would get the #4/5, #6(their own pick could be higher if they win the lotto) and #21 pick in a very deep draft and shawn marion to rebuild their team which is a great start since they have some pg options already and semi-decent bigs/wing guys they can fill in and do well.

    and even if the suns keep the pick imagine corey brewer coming OFF THE BENCH for that team, it'll just make them that much tougher and athletic

    if the Bulls get Oden(which I'm sorta wishing for, anything to stop Memphis from getting a top pick) they are going to be downright nasty for the next 8 years

    Suns are looking to dump salary not head into Knicks territory.

    The number of scenarios and the depth of the draft make this one of the most interesting one in the past few years. I think the one yr of college rule helps too.

    i believe that kg can opt out after this year so he can opt out to resign with the suns at a lower rate....also marion has a max contract as well so i think they match up somewhat. i am not sure how adamant sarvar was when he did say that, but you would think that an owner would welcome a player of kg's caliber to get them over the hump if it meant that.

    the knicks pay luxury taxes on mediocre/former all stars who all clash which each other, not on a future HOF like the suns could be.

    Never really understood why they have this when the Playoffs are still going on.

    Is this just the lottery pick? Not all of the picks?

    I would like to see the Hawks get the pick. Anyone but Boston. I hope they suck forever. They have won enough......

    i remember they used to have the lottery at halftime on the sunday before memorial day.



    i think it was boston vs new jersey.

    and i remember they had POD playing youth of the nation during the pregame show. I hate POD, but i was pretty pumped up.

    and a good thing i was because we saw the results at halftime.
