Restricted free agent Joe Johnson, who next week plans to sign a lucrative offer sheet from the Atlanta Hawks, told ESPN.com on Friday night that he has asked the Phoenix Suns not to match the offer.
Phoenix is really thin at SG. They have Jim Jackson who is good off the bench but not a great starting SG. They also have this years pick Dijon Thompson. They obviously did not expect this to happen. If they had, they would've never traded Q. That trade really hurts the Suns now.
They should've made sure Johnson will resign there before trading Q! If something like this were to happen in New York, the media and some negative fans would have killed Isiah. The Suns management really f**ked up on this one.
A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
