Hill and Barbosa both playing low minutes should be an upgrade but they are not title contenders realistically

The Phoenix Suns have completed a deal with the Charlotte Bobcats to acquire high-scoring swingman Jason Richardson, according to NBA front-office sources.
The multiplayer deal will require the Suns to part with forward Boris Diaw and defensive ace Raja Bell, two mainstays from the team that averaged 58 wins over the last four seasons under former Suns coach Mike D'Antoni.
The Suns will also receive a future second-round pick from the Bobcats and forward Jared Dudley while sending Sean Singletary to the Bobcats.
Senior writer Marc Stein covers the NBA for ESPN.com.

Another terrible trade by Kerr.
He'll be fired after the season.

The Suns management never got it. They were trying to get by the Spurs, and never realized that the Spurs had no answer for the Tri-Towers (Amare, Shaq, Diaw). And why does a team trying to improve on defense give up its best defender (Bell)?
Kerr is the Suns Kerr-se.

I like if for the Suns. If JRich goes back to being the JRich pre-injury, pre-Bobcats, it makes sense. He fits in with what the Suns are trying to do.
Raja Bell is way to inconsistent as a scorer anyway.

How the hell does this trade make sense unless they act upon another trade. They were lacking big men to being with, on top of that Shaq doesn't play the second game of back to backs. Robin Lopez going to play 48 mins along with Amare? Lol... cause they needed another guard. Pretty soon Nash going to be playing Power forward the way things are going.

I thought Porter was emphasizing defense this year and look what they do. They trade away their best perimeter defender. Doesn't make any sense to me. It surely isn't clearing cap space. Unless they plan on running and gunning more, then I really don't understand this trade.

All that mostly did was make up a little for getting rid of Shawn Marion for Shaq on the offensive end.
