The Official Phoenix Suns Blog " Blog Archive " Suns to Begin Search for Free Agents
From the Suns....I wonder how much of this is just smoke? I can't see the Suns signing any of these guys to anything more then a minimum contract. If they do sign a vet big man that is a strong sign that Ben Wallace will agree to a buy out..something we don't know but Kerr must -

KTAR.com - The similarities between Amare and the Suns
The Suns are a team in transition and one that is ready to rebuild. Steve Kerr said so on draft night -- more than once. Who is the center piece of the rebuilding process? It's 35-year-old Steve Nash, the point guard they plan to sign on for more years...yup, that's the plan -

Larry Bird Building Pacers With An Eye Toward The Future - Indy Cornrows
But then I started hearing some, not a lot, but some comments on the radio and reading a few things on the web that insinuated that Larry Bird was a racist and his priority in running the team was to amass as many white players as possible, regardless of talent.
