Atlanta/Phoenix Trade - processed

[SunsGM]

to Atlanta:

Zarko Cabarkapa
Sergei Monia
Phoenix 2008 first round pick

to Phoenix

Jason Collier

i do this deal because as everyone knows i have a huge hole at center, and Collier is a better offensive player than Hunter, and i can have them rotate time at the 5 spot

i dont give up too much the future pick is worth it to me to try to make 1 last push this season. and i managed to address a need w/o giving up my pick this year, so if i dont make out of this hole i dug my self, i'll have a shot at a lottery type of player in a very deep draft.

agreed....it's a future pick for a player who is effective but not in my future plans....the two players I recieved will just be let go at the end of the season
