PHOENIX SUNS

Suns adamant about not dealing Nash or Gortat

Jun 22, 2011, 3:06 PM | Updated: 5:53 pm

Remember that game you used to play as a kid where you’d stare at another person and the first one to blink lost? The Phoenix Suns and certain writers around the league are in the midst of an epic one of those games right now.

In three days, three separate rumors involving the Suns made the rounds across the Internet. One involving Steve Nash going to the Knicks for Chauncey Billups from New York Post (the equivalent of a tabloid randomly claiming two celebrity friends are dating). A rumor from ESPN’s Chad Ford involving Marcin Gortat heading to Minnesota for the No. 2 pick and another from Ford, and the most interesting, rumor suggested that the Suns had called the Timberwolves offering Nash and other parts for the pick that would likely become Arizona’s Derrick Williams.
