The Suns Make A 3 Player Trade Hoping To Improve

The Phoenix Suns made a bold move on Wednesday trading Raja Bell, Boris Diaw and Sean Singletary to the Charlotte Bobcats for Jason Richardson, Jared Dudley and a second round draft pick in 2010.  Jason Richardson is the key, he is a proven scorer and can get his own shot at anytime.  This is Jason’s eighth year in the NBA and has an average of 18.7 points per game.

Whether this helps the Suns is yet to be determined.  It seems like the Suns falter on defense and this trade provides no more defensive minded players to its roster, actually, they have given up their best defender in Raja Bell.  Only time will tell, but I think this trade won’t make a bit of difference.  I can understand the management trying to make a change to get the players philosophy on the same page and re-energize its crew.
