The other shoe finally dropped today for DJ Strawberry, as Kerr and Co. traded him to the Houston Snake Eggs for rookie point guard Sean Singletary. The trade according to Kerr:“Sean gives us depth at the point guard spot. We like his instincts and his ability to run a team. He also puts a [...]

Loading ...I got in line and drank the Kool-Aid when Kerr traded for your bloated contract and insanely large gluteus maximus. I love the charity work you do in what seems like every community you've ever been part of. I even looked the other way when you infamously asked Kobe in front of the whole world how [...]

Our new fearless leader was a guest of Cardinals' coach Ken Whisenhunt yesterday at Cardinals training camp. Sounds like Ken had a nice little Tuesday lined up for he and Terry, as they had some lunch and Coach Porter was asked to [...]

(Rate this post) Loading ...Paul Coro gives us this little tidbit from David Griffin on the newest Sun, Louis Amundson:"defensive intensity, a toughness, a kind of unbridled enthusiasm."No word on whether his story is also one of love, deception, greed, and lust. While it's possible he's a cockeyed optimist, Amundson doesn't look to be a [...]

(Rate this post) Loading ...The Suns signed Louis Amundson to the veteran's minimum contract. Here's the deal: I'm not going to lie. I like to think I know a little something about damn near ever player in the NBA or even guys on the fringe of the league, but I don't have the foggiest idea as to who this [...]

Goran Dragic's situation is a complicated one. Different contracts, buyouts, countries and the NBA's Collective Bargaining Agreement combine for some difficulty. To help make this point and maybe even explain the mess a bit (at [...]

The Suns will soon be finalizing a contract with Goran Dragic.Terms have yet to be ironed out, but it looks like Kerr and Co. will get Dragic to sign on the dotted line.This is of course [...]

While I'm not so sure Amare should be described as "mean," he's certainly an intimidating presence when on the floor, as he's been known to unleash a thunderous dunk on an unsuspecting schlub's head from out of nowhere.While his size would be a bonus [...]

Via the great Basketbawful comes this gem, a sampling of Tim Duncan's since corrected wikipedia page:It's funny, I always thought Tony Parker's matching head beard was evidence of a not so secret relationship with Duncan.

The Suns will apparently rescue Matt Barnes from Nellie's doghouse and he'll sign a one-year deal for the veteran's minimum today.There isn't a whole lot to dislike about this deal, as Barnes is a guy who does a little bit [...]

(Rate this post) Loading ...I've had a few run-ins with various Suns players in my life. I've detailed a couple previously, and seeing as we're smack dab in the middle of the offseason and I'm doing nothing but sulking over not being in Vegas for the summer league, I figured today would be good as any to revisit a couple more [...]

(Rate this post) Loading ...Information overload from Paul Coro this bright and sunny morning. We learn the Suns plans for Nash's backup include such young, spry individuals as Sam Cassell and Damon Stoudamire. Other names mentioned include Jason Williams, perhaps Carlos Arroyo, and if a miracle occurs, poor, poor, Shaun Livingston.My thoughts on this news are the same [...]

While I realize this isn't Suns news, I felt the need to weigh in on the Brandon Jennings/UofA/NBA/Europe saga. This is not only because I'm an Arizona State alum and take immense pleasure in seeing Lute Olson squirm, but also due to the folly [...]

I'm not exactly sure when this originally aired so forgive me if you've watched it already and I'm late to the party, but I rather enjoyed Bill Simmons and Suns Summer League baller Rod Benson hanging out and messing around. And if you're thinking to yourself, "jeez, this friggin' guy looooves posting videos, he must have nothing [...]
