    Josh Childress is pretty good but he's also amazingly ugly. I'm not sure it's a fair tradeoff.

    Childress has improved his game while overseas, so he could be a nice addition. Hedo...not so much.

    Hedo could have a really great season here. I don't hate this move, what I do hate are the inconsistencies of our bi-polar front office.

    Getting rid of Barbosa is good but why the are they absorbing Turkoglu's contract? Does Sarver not know what rebuilding mode is?

    15% trade kicker on Hedo. Is Sarver really going to eat that?

    Barbosa is one of the worst players in the NBA, so they obviously get a huge upgrade in Turkoglu, but is it worth the extra 2 years at 10 + million $?..this would also ensure that the Suns are in the playoffs for the next few years(since Turkoglu is obviously an upgrade), but it would mean they're probably going to be 1st round fodder and won't add any lottery picks..

    It's interesting that the cheap ass Sarver is going to pay Turkoglu and Childress..

    This also means the Suns will be playing a lot of small ball, they're loaded with perimeter players now, a few of them that could potentially play small ball PF..

    A great deal for Toronto, they get a guy for 2 years less than Turkgolu and a lot less money, while getting worse and trying to load up on lottery picks..hopefully it leads to a Calderon trade and Colangelo being let go..

    Four years and $44 million left on Hedo's contract. Got damn that's a lot for someone swiftly going down hill. Childress is a good piece but I don't really see the fit. Teams will rotate off of him.

    So Babby in the mix for the GM job and gets two of his boys. Props.

    I'm in awe of this stupidity. The Suns are gonna be so soft and so perimeter heavy (and it's not like they have great perimeter players).

    Can't complain too much, at least Barbosa is gone, and when motivated Turkoglu is the legit small forward they need.

    Don't forget the extra 6.6 million just to bring him to PHX. Ouch.

    The Warrick signing is looking more and more bizarre. I would rather play Gani Lawal who is a tough mother er over pussy ass Hakeem.

    I have a question. How are they going to open up their shooters like they did with Amare and Nash on the pick and roll? Who will make the defenders leave the shooters to collapse the paint now?

    Sarver along with most re ed Suns fans believe Nash is so good that he can run pick and rolls with a pile of bricks and still generate a bunch of open shots. Moves like these are only gonna make it harder and harder to rebuild

    This deal makes signing Tony Allen look like he brought LeBron to Beale St.

    Random trivia: Hedo almost signed with the Suns back in the summer of '04. At the last second, the Magic swooped in with a larger offer. The Suns then went with Q-Rich.

    Anyways, I'm not sure Hedo on the Suns will work. He's good when he gets to handle the ball a lot. In Phoenix, Nash handles the ball more than any player in the league. Plus, they have the best backup PG in the league. If the Suns try to turn Hedo into a spot up shooter, it'll be a failure.
