the poster has apparently released legit info before. no details have been released but this is his post:
hey its been awhile since y'all have heard from me but i have some news that doesnt sound to promising for us!!!!! i've been catching wind that kg may have been dealt last night to phoenix. now im not 100% sure just yet but please take my word that there has been serious talk going on for the last few nights between kg&his agent with the suns. i really hope this is not true but i wanted to give yall the heads up.

I was just going to post this. Good catch.....


I don't believe it though. Interesting enough that if KG and his agent want a deal done there and KOME and his agent want the same what does PHX do?

i read the poster's previous posts - it sounds like the guy is actually troy hudson or some that knows him (but that's just me speculating).

apparently the moderator asked the guy for a source, whom the moderator contacted. the source confirmed it and ask the mod to lock the thread b/c it could damage his rep.

now, with the rumors of minny making a promise to spencer hawes, this may have some legs. i guess they figure hawes to try and replace some low post scoring for minny.

Ive spoke to 3 people on this issue. We dont know "who" is involved, just that KG/Agent/wolves/Phoenix are talking and appear to have something done two nights ago.

The last three weeks KG has been actively shopped and Pho has the best chance if something went down.

This isn't believable because if he were actively being shopped we would have heard of news long before now. Not in case actively being shopped was exclusive to Phx.

It's going to be a crazy 10 days leading up to the draft. Lots of big names on the market and with a deep top half of the draft, picks are going to be important trade pieces.

So who goes to Minnesota? Amare or Marion?

if you're mchale, you have to get amare. he's young and a big enough name to sell to the fanbase. if they don't get a stud in return, the organization may fold up shop - nobody will go to games.

Something like Marion, Barbosa, and Atlanta's pick would be a pretty good package for Minny. I don't think they're getting Amare. I wouldn't do Amare for KG straight up if I were the Suns. The Nash/Amare connection is good enough to make even the Spurs look helpless even when the game is on the line... if they break that up they're taking a step back.

Just going with the Rumor it's probably Marion, Barbosa, Thomas and 23 & 29, ATL's lottery protected pick from Joe Johnson trade for KG, Davis, and 7

if kg gets traded to the suns i would think the matrix + bell is the ticket.

as far as talent trade goes....james + reed for juwan howard is mind boggling

knick fans looking for garbage trade need to look no further

it's interesting - if something was agreed to a few days ago, it coincides with kobe's recent outburst. upon hearing kg going to pheonix, kobe could've flipped a little bit.

If it's not Amare, how do KG and Amare play together?

Amare played center Nash's first yr there so they can both co-exist. I get a kick out of people who say Superstars can't make adjustments. K.G. either plays the 4 or 3, whichever he prefers, and it's not even debatable. It could work.

I can see this happening. It makes sense from a 'win now' point of view. They need each other to succeed and take it to other levels in the playoffs. Nash and KG have no other choice by themselves, as individuals. But together, they have a much better chance. KG would be just what Phoenix needs to get it over the top.

It's too bad KG didn't force himself to Chicago, that way the Lakers would have no choice but to send Kobe here to our Knicks.

Very interesting news either way.

Another thing, how can the owner of the T'Wolves have absolutely ANY faith in Kevin McHale trading away the franchises most important player in its history?
