I took so much heat in this thread, being bashed back and forth and called a troll, when I was simply discussing the facts of the situation and a guy who loves to talk basketball. But now, the Suns (as predicted) were unwilling to offer anything and Eric Gordon is disgruntled, injured and most likely utterly worthless in a trade. I apologize to the many classy posters on here but to those who called reasonable discourse "trolling"...
I told you so.

That is trolling.
Wow, go you!
Wherehappens.
I mean, the Hornets are still in a better situation than they would be had they just let him walk. You can at least deal him wherever you want ... this is, of course, assuming he's just trying to force his way out. If he's not hurt, other teams can pretty much learn that via a physical, and you'll get a return.
It hurts his value, but taking less value is still > than taking nothing at all, which letting him walk would have been.
But that is not what people were advocating. Houston and the Suns called about sign and trades. Dell didn't engage them, he just said he would match whatever.
Hornets could have got expiring K Mart and one or two assets like Lamb, Dallas pick, etc. PHX wasn't willing to give up Gortat, but Dudley and a sign and traded Lopez (w/o having to take on Warrick) plus a future pick are both better offers than anything Dell would get now if he picked up the phone
