It's Official - Shaq Is a Sun. Time to Get On Board
Well, all protests aside, Shaq is now officially a Sun. Whatever we may personally think about the trade, I guess it's time for us fans to get on board. Time to wish Shawn Marion well in Miami. Time to forget Shaq used to be a Laker, and accept that he's on our side now. He says he won't let us down. Let's give him a chance to make good on that. To help get us started in the right direction, here are a few thoughts on the bright side of the trade:
- No more Marcus Banks.
- More DJ Strawberry.
- A happier workplace since Amare doesn't have to play center anymore (Shawn doesn't have to play the four spot anymore either, at least not here).
- A rejuvenated Shaq helped lead a Miami Heat team to the championship just two short years ago, and that team was much less talented than the Suns are even without the Matrix.
- We have a new mentor for Amare who has four rings in his pocket.
In other, completely unrelated news, Steve Nash will be in the 3-point shooting contest at the All-Star game this year.

The next big question, in an espn article Jan 25th, they mentioned the heat wanted him back playing by tonights game, does this mean shaq might be suited up and play in the next few days?
OMG
hopefully he doesn't show up naked in the street (aka time travel), he can do the rest of the stuff to the other teams, that'd be alright...
can anyone think of a stranger trade, I can't, but maybe....
also
Suns- Shaq
lets see what dallas does, because they need to do something, not a fan of dallas, but I think they will be next to aggressively roll the dice
I don't think kid is their answer, ...
I can't ever remember 2 big names (plus KG) being traded so closely together
awesome
Sheesh
RIP Suns, You will be missed. :(

In fact, their best move would be to do nothing at all, which it looks like they will.
