[OnlyOneBeerLeft]

Bobcats send J-rich to Suns for Boris Diaw and Raja Bell in 5 player trade...I'll post more details when i get em

The Suns have acquired Jason Richardson and Jared Dudley from the Bobcats in exchange for Boris Diaw, Raja Bell and Sean Singletary, according to ESPN.

WOW, that was a short stint for J Rich

 

[CB4]

The suns are dumbasses if they do this trade

 

[CB4]

The suns will get jared dudly as well and the bobcats get Sean Singletary

 

[CB4]

Oh lol.

 

[SuperNova854]

I think its dumb for the Bobcats. basicly trading for crap and old crap

 

[OnlyOneBeerLeft]

i think its a good move, it will shore up the defense and open up a hell of a lot of cap room from overpaid J-Rich, and Augustin is playin so well they may move Felton to SG or keep them fresh and it will open things up for wallace and okaefor and keep them fresh

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS

BOBCATS SELLING CHEAP AS SHIT

 

[mfbmike]

I don't understand. Are the Bobcats getting expirings in this? I haven't looked at contracts yet.

 

[mfbmike]

why? what does this move have to do with Amare leaving in '10?

I just got home and i'm still in shock.

 

[mfbmike]

yeah ok, michael jordan is an idiot. wtf

this trade is horrible

unless this is his way of thanking steve kerr for the blowjobs he got after games in chicago.

W T F

I know Suns fans are ecstatic to get rid of Diaw and his contract, and Amare will now get even more PT now that Diaw is out and the Suns don't have a reliable backup 4.

I have no idea what the Bobcats are doing, I guess they finally get their starting 4, but they still have no where near enough talent to be a legitamite playoff contender.

I already dealt diaw in my chise but I'll make it work. I'm pumped up this is great for my chise. w0000000t

 

[mfbmike]

at the very least it makes them exciting to watch again

but still, what is Michael Jordan doing? This makes as little sense as the rumors I've heard about G-Wall. MJ best player to play the game but holy shit he's a horrible GM.

Kwame Brown # 1 overall pick anyone? jesus christ.

 

[corbin]

J-rich can create his own shot ands hit 3's that's exactly what we need. Dudley as well? Solid young back-up with potential. Love the trade, Diaw is unreliable trash who is getting overpayed.

The acquisition of Jason Richardson crammed a lot of excitement into a small visitors locker room that the Suns inhabited for their Staples Center visit Wednesday night. But excuse Steve Nash if he can't share the glee. It cost him his best friend, Raja Bell. Just like Nash was separated from Dirk Nowitzki by Dallas owner Mark Cuban's unwillingness to match a Suns offer in 2004, Nash has been split from his basketball buddy again by a basketball decision. The Suns traded Bell, Boris Diaw and Sean Singletary on Wednesday to Charlotte for Jason Richardson, Jared Dudley and a second-round draft pick. Before Nash said a word about how he felt about the trade, his flat play with a dead expression said it all during the Suns' shorthanded 115-110 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday night. "It's tough," Nash said after a big exhale. "While I'll welcome my new teammates with open arms, it's tough when you lose your best friend. It's tough when you lose two of your best buddies. It's tough and it hurts. It's tough." Nash was boarding the team bus at the hotel Wednesday afternoon when he received a friend's text message, reading, "It's a tough business." He called Bell, who was already at the airport because he didn't want to wake Nash from his usual game-day afternoon nap. Nash seemed as if he was blindsided by the news. "A little bit, yeah," said Nash, searching for words he couldn't find. "Um, a little bit, yeah."

Nash retires when his contract is up at the end of this season.

CALLING IT.

lol I doubt it but it wouldn't surprise me.

It's puzzling how the Bobcats could deal Jason Richardson, a reliable and versatile scorer in his prime, and not get back a more rugged big man than Boris Diaw. The 6-foot-8 forward is hardly a boost to one of the league's worst rebounding teams. Nor is it likely that Raja Bell (also acquired from the Suns) will thrive in Larry Brown's deliberate offense after spending the first month of the season chafing under Terry Porter's slower scheme in Phoenix.
