"I wanted to go to Phx, but I knew D'Antoni only played 7"

[Jeremy]

Those are the words of Tyronn Lue, confirming what some have speculated all along: the reason that no role players wanted to come to the Suns was...Mike D'Antoni.

"I feel really good about the Suns," Lue said. "I want to go to a winning team and a good organization. They have both those things. I'd love to play with Nash and with Shaq (O'Neal) again. Hopefully we can work something out."

[...]

Lue considered the Suns in March, when the Sacramento waived him, but chose Dallas.

"I wanted to go to Phoenix, but I knew (former coach Mike) D'Antoni only played seven people in his rotation," Lue said. "With (new coach) Terry Porter there and Nash needing more rest, it'd be a great place for me."

Of course, money is still an issue, with Sarver not wanting to spend more than 1-year vet. min. deals...

Hopefully this is why no players will go to New York.

I'm glad Lue is saying what everyone already thought.

[T Park]

Yeah cause Lue played such a load of minutes in Dallas.

Tyronne Lue was better off in Hawksland.

Sources close to both teams have confirmed. Just remember who broke the story first...

So the Clippers gave up on Elton Brand? In order to re-sign Brand and get Davis they had to renounce Maggette's rights, thus making it impossible to do a sign-and-trade.

I'm pretty sure the Clips didn't head into the offseason trying to get rid of Elton and getting Baron and Barbosa.

Duh, Sarver is obviously throwing in the next 12 first round picks and Elton is taking the Warriors' offer.
