Marion is definitely leaving Phoenix this summer...Celtics are looking like the biggest possibility.

Boston is also looking at Jason Richardson as well, for a similar deal...I definitely think either Richardson or Marion will end up in Boston soon.

celtics would be getting robbed. marion is an efficient player, but hes gonna be absolutely useless in their offense unless someone is creating shots for him. without delonte west and a 5th pick, that means its up to paul pierce to do just that

^^I agree...They're better off going for Richardson. I heard the proposal for that one was 5th pick, Theo Ratliff, and Sebastian Telfair, which is a better package for Boston to give up...Boston should keep Delonte...PeACe

I don't understand why PHX would want to break up their team

Oh really? That's why they would have probably won the Championship if Horry had not checked Nash?

why would the W's do that deal for J-Rich

[Halu Sination]

the phoenix owner hates being over the salary cap. they're slowly coming to terms that they'll probably need a slight change to give them the final push over the other elite postseason teams on the west, and since marions makin 15-16 mill for the next few seasons, he becomes expendable.

as for the richardson trade, if i was boston i STILL wouldn't do it. i know they would like to clear up capspace with theo ratliff and whatnot, but who knows, maybe brandan wright will fall to #5 (assuming atlanta doesn't trade their pick, because they are getting fed up with drafting forwards). and even if they dont get wright, horford or yi jianlian doesnt sound bad at all.

The Celtics are offering that same deal to the Sonics for Rashard Lewis. I hope they get him.

C - Al Jefferson
PF - Rashard Lewis
SF - Gerald Wallace
SG - Paul Pierce
PG - Rajon Rondo

^ A lot of talent, but not sure how far they can make it.

Get the fuck outta here. Phoenix lost 3 years in a row. If your team is that good and can't make it to the Finals you have to make some changes. Too bad the Suns can't dump Nash and somehow get Chris Paul.

Nash is getting older, but somehow dude has been getting better every year the past 5 years!?  CP is DOPE, one of my favourites, but he isn't touching Nash yet.  If the goal is to win the title now, keep Nash, if its to win later, Paul and Stoudemire would be sick together. 

And well they won't  miss Marion on offense, his defensive play was integral to the Suns...........

LMFAO...


7even...The reality is, Phoenix can't contend and Marion is very unhappy...What don't you understand?

Pretty sure it's a salary dump....
