Yes, both the Racine Journal-Times and the Chicago Sun-Times have mentioned news about a possible trade in which the Suns would trade Shawn Marion to the Bulls for Tyson Chandler and the Bulls' top pick, as you mentioned above.\n\nI haven't heard any other rumors so far; and it is unlikely that the Suns and Twolves had reached an agreement on a trade involving Marion and Barbosa for KG. Garnett's contract is simply too large ($18 million) for the Suns to take on unless they don't plan on resigning players such as Boris Diaw and Tim Thomas. Also, keep in mind that Barbosa is a free agent (if i remember correctly). This means that the Suns have to figure out a way to work a sign and trade deal. Lastly, Barbosa has been working under the tutelage of Steve Nash to become Phoenix's next PG; he is currently their backup point guard. I doubt the Suns would trade Barbosa away (even if it is in return for KG) and leave themselves with Eddie House as their primary backup pg.\n\n\n\nEdit (June 25): Sorry for the late update but word came out yesterday that the Sonics and the Suns are close to a deal involving Marion and Rashard Lewis. Barbosa and Fortson are mentioned as possible throw-ins (simply for salary cap issues) and it the teams very well might also swap first round picks.\n\nThis move seems feasible for several reasons...Barbosa is asking for at least $7 million, but the Suns still need to resign Diaw (who they are probably more inclined to resign). By acquiring Lewis, the Suns could save money and avoid the luxury tax. This trade would benefit Seattle because those in the Sonic's front office believe that Lewis will most likely opt out of his contract next year and they will have a close to zero chance of re-signing him. Remember that there was talk earlier this year of the Sonics being moved; bringing in a star like Marion could draw more fans for the team.\n\nLast note for today: The supposed Bulls-Suns trade as mentioned above is false. Bulls GM John Paxson said that there is no truth to the rumors; and Suns coach Mike D'Antoni said that Marion is not on the market...This statement leads me to doubt the validity of the Suns-Sonics rumors; but it'll be interesting to see if anything happens.\n\n\nEdit 2 (June 26): Both the Suns and the Sonics are now saying the trade rumors are "just rumors". Go figure.\n\n\nEdit 3 (June 27): This is from Sports Illustrated...it looks like we can forget about a Marion/Lewis trade. Lewis said he wants to resign with the Sonics when his contract expires. Guess Both teams are staying put for the time being.

Brett is %40 correct. Shawn Marion has to get credit. He is another %40. He is also leading the team in points(21.6 ppg), rebounds(11.9 rpg), blocks(1.9 bpg), and steals(2.0 spg). %5 goes to the rest of the team. You can't win games with 2 players. %15 goes to coaching. They are doing a great job without Stoudemire.

I've got to go with Shawn Marion because as a Suns fan I've seen him perform both through the good times an BAD times. I've got to say I really hope Tim Thomas can be signed by PHX as his addition was Huge and would be even bigger for the coming season. I was in disbelief when the Suns were able to get him via the Bulls. He stands as one of my favorites also. Keep an eye on Boris Diaw and we all know about Amare. I know, I'm too partial.

I think the big loser in this deal would be the one who would receive the Shawn Marion part of the deal as it would basically be a three-for-one.\n\nKidd (who is averaging over 8 rebounds and 8 assists), Morrison (who is scoring out of his mind and seems to be the clear cut winner of this year's Rookie of the Year Award), and Camby (shot blocking machine) are a healthy and capable players who give you stats across the board.\n\nNothing against Shawn Marion who can also do everything, but the really question here is Amare and his knees, can they hold up?\n\nHope this helps.

Well the trade deadline is this Friday Nov 17th, for Yahoo anyways.. But Hell No man don't trade Brees ...he is awesome this year man passing more the 250 and 2 td's agame for the last 3 games. Try getting rid of McNair and Lewis for Delhomme and Chambers man...Or do this.. give him Mc Nair, Lewis ,Horn  and Bryant  for.. Delhomme, Chambers and Taylor..then go to the wavier wire man and pick up another wr like Evans or someone like that.

I don't think there is any question you take this trade and run with it.  \nJones' numbers will go up for the rest of the season because Grossman has proven his weakness.\nPortis has been hurt more than he played.\n\nAnd Delhomme loves Steve Smith\n\nAddai is getting more touches, but Indy is a passing team.

Drop Scott Olsen and pick up S. Marshall or K. Escobar.\nOther than that, your team is GREAT!!!!!!!

Who do you own?  Well, if I were receiving the Ray Allen package, I'd go for it if I were deep at C and PF as Shaq and Villanueva are currently injured, while Jermaine O'Neal has a history of injuries.  In Korver, I'll be giving up a good supply of three point conversions but Allen will make that up.  Zach Randolph will basically replace J.O'Neal (the negative here is that Randolph can't play center) while Baron Davis takes Shaq's place.\n\nHope this helps. Good luck this season!\n\nIf you are interested in joining another Yahoo! Fantasy NBA league, I am inviting you and everyone here at Yahoo! Answers. League ID is 218266.  The password is 1234567

If it wasn't for Tiki Barber I would say yes!  But with Tiki and Shockey, I just don't see it coming out for you.  Good luck though.  Wierder things have happened.  Talk about the bad luck, I actually traded to get Donovan McNabb last week.  SUCK!!

Can you make trades?  You need to replace Ross at C.  You also need more OF power.  Maybe trade some of those 2b/3b?

I would keep emeka and biedrins because good centers are hard to come by.  PG's on the other hand is easier to pick up.  Since you are in a 20 team league (its really deep) I would keep all the centers you can and maybe you can bargain for decent PGs by trading in okayish centers.

ok, i got larry hughes too. luckily his injury isn't due to his injury that put him out last year. DO NOT pick up jason williams, there are better guards out there .... trust me. TRUST ME. and kirilenko is injury pron, and that's never good for a fantasty league. for example... i have player like Dirk , Yao, and Billups, who get monster minutes and never get hurt.  but i also took a chance with baron davis, and he's doing great. one of the best in the league. if you can keep hughes, do that. he WILL be lebron's scottie pippen. hughes can score any way he can, he lead the league in steals before he got injured last year, and he rebounds.

I would pull the trigger...You are giving up a lot, so I may try to get the guy to give you one more player (maybe a young guy with a lot of updside).  But even if he wouldn't, I'd still do it.  I've been very successful in fantasy sports by packaging 2 or 3 good players for 1 great player, and trying to assemble 2 or 3 first round caliber players.

If it's gonna be extremely hard to pick up another C, then I'd hold on to Okafor, even though he's out for a while.  But then again, if you NEED stats from that roster spot, then it'd be advisable to drop him and try to pick up a decent free agent or make a 2 for 1 trade... it's possible, but if it's 20 team deep, you'd be in a bit of trouble.  At least you have Wade, Garnett and Abdur-Rahim!  The rest of your team is decent, only because the league is so deep.

Due to extreme boredom, I made an Excel spreadsheet to put in everyone's stats and eventually give each player a rating.  The top 5 were:\n\nMarion\nKobe\nBrand\nDirk\nGarnett\n\nSince that wouldn't be a normal starting 5, my starting 5 would be:\n\nPG - Arenas\nSG - Kobe\nSF - Marion\nPF - Brand\nC - Camby (Maybe Yao since he doesn't get hurt as often, and with Brand and Marion, you won't need all of the blocks Camby gives you).\n\nYou have got to have Marion on that team though.  He is way above the next best, and has been the #1 player the last few years.  You may want to replace Brand with Garnett because Garnett is consistently at the top, and this is Brand's first year that high.\n\nIf you were going try and realistically draft a team, and can somehow get Marion in the first round, I'd then try and get the following:\n\nRound 1 - Marion (PF)\nRound 2 - Ray Allen (SG)\nRound 3 - Kidd (PG)\nRound 4 - Camby or Rasheed Wallace (C)\nRound 5 - Gerald Wallace (SF)

Without a doubt!  Odom is having a great year and when Kobe get injured again for 10 plus games like he does every year Odom always goes off!  Joe Johnson is starting to shoot the lights out like Phoenix (who I still have no idea why they let him go) thought he would and well Chris Bosh is well Chris Bosh the who was my first pick and is doing great for an average player in this league right now and he is playing injured!  Take the trade!
