Suns Free Agency

     The impossible is happening. Honestly hell might be freezing over. The Suns are actually spending money in free agency?! No, this can't be happening, not the Suns. This is the same team that two summers ago let a superstar go because he wasn't worth paying for. This is the same team that just let Joe Johnson walk out the door. The Suns don't usually spend money and when they do, it's usually on the wrong players like Hedo Turkoglu, Hakim Warrick, and Josh Childress. The money they've spent thus far in free agency I think has been well spent. They've got a commitment from Eric Gordon, and although the Hornets can match it, it seems like he will come to the Valley. Gordon is the versatile wing scorer that the Suns lack. He thrives in open-court, fast-paced action. He has the opportunity to be a star for the Suns. Secondly, the Suns brought back Goran Dragic. I was upset when we traded Dragic to the Rockets. I think he is a great player whose style of play goes hand-in-hand with what the Suns do. Plus, he learned from one of the best in Steve Nash. Lastly, the Suns added Michael Beasley. Beasley has a ton of talent, but hasn't quite lived up to the expectations of the #2 overall pick. But, Alvin Gentry is known for being a player's coach. He is very good at working with players with troubled pasts. I believe he will get the most out of Beasley. The Suns spent money in free agency this time, and let's hope it works better than the last trio of players they spent money on.
