BREAKING NEWS: Brian Grant Retired
I just found this out. I was confused when I heard the deal but it makes sense now.

Re: BREAKING NEWS: Brian Grant Retired
Still, he got it from the Lakers regardless. He didnt have to screw us out of salary cap when he knew he wasnt even going to try to contribute.
Edit: BTW, i think he gets another 15 mil from the lakers coming in 2006-07 too.

Re: BREAKING NEWS: Brian Grant Retired
I heard that Grant, wouldn't get the 15 million if he retired before picking up our option or something along those lines. Maybe the Suns had decided this all along if the players we wanted weren't available. I hope Grant stays and becomes a member of the coaching stuff he will be great for Amare and Skita and any other big we may get.
