Suns signing Bismack Biyombo for the rest of the season.

It should have been for much longer.

Do we retain any rights to him after this year?

 

[Raindog]

I really don't mind having too many Bigs, in the history of Basketball I don't think anyone has ever uttered the phrase "we need more short Fers on this team".

Well, except for Mike D'Antoni.

 

[Hoop Head]

Do we retain any rights to him after this year?

It would need to have a 2nd year option to gain any sort of rights. It requires 2 years to get early bird rights to a player.

I imagine we'll learn details of his deal soon. I hope there is a 2nd year team or player option.

There is nothing to indicate that in the tweet. I was hoping for a multi-year contract with perhaps some options.

 

[Mainstreet]

Play Steven Hunter.

Bismack Biyombo says he has been in contact with the Suns since August. Kudos to James Jones.


By Duane Rankin Arizona Republic:

Biyombo said he'd been in contact with the Suns since August, as the Hornets renounced their free agent exemption rights to him, but said he wasn't mentally ready to return after the passing of his father in August.

“I’m thankful to God because when I was watching the games from far away, personally, I was not ready for this,” he said. “God has given me some time away to heal and prepare myself for this and I’m ready now to play basketball. The mind is ready. The body is ready, and soul is prepared for it.”

Just what we need, his hex upon us again.

Hell no.

No

 

[Yuma]

What, no Sarver quote on the signing?

But we would have to ban you for those ten minutes.

Bismack Biyombo says there were a lot of teams he passed on before choosing the Suns.

Wow. I get this.

No

Can you give Cheesebeef his email address so everyone can be spared from his asking that question repeatedly? He can correspond with him on his own time, elsewhere. Win, win.

i didn't realize a simple question thrown out as a joke every once in a while was such an imposition to you.

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

This is the right move. Love him in this role.

It's become a jinx of sorts on it's own. Suns start playing really well, you ask for 1Sun and everyone groans. We stumble for a minute and then it starts over.

Probably because these kinds of requests, joking or not, have gotten him unbanned twice now.

And far too many of us have watched Beetlejuice.
