wow, so much for only being out for camp. I hope this doesn't affect him long term, he was on his way to being one of the top 5 players in the league.

He's going to be awesome for the next decade though, he has all the time in the world.

don't forget, he traded the pick AND Camby - to a team that was desparate to get rid of Dice. Layden was incompetent. Notice how there wasn't exactly a ton of teams knocking on his door after the Knicks fired him.

Checketts and Grunfeld probably laugh their asses off all the time at the whole thing

unfortunately, the f--king Shandon Anderson and Allan Houston contracts are still on the books for 2 years, so it's impossible to pretend the Layden era didn't exist.

Yeah, I got him in the 3rd as well in my draft and rode him all the way to the finals.

On his way to being one of the top 5 players? Well... he's not far as it is.

I'm not really too worried... He can take his time. The Suns will still have an acceptable record come All Star Break when he returns. Just going to make it hard for him to wrap up that MVP award by Thanksgiving like he wanted to. :P
