What is the latest word on O.J Mayo? Why are teams not jumping on him?

John Hollinger

He's resisting. Knows he has a payday waiting in Phoenix three days from now.

good plan by the suns

[DStebb716]

Yea, he'll end up in Phoenix I think.

[Batz]

Phoenix are having a hell of an off-season here. Didn't see it coming really. If they land Mayo they get an A from me.

[Crown&Coke]

NOLA said they are going to match EJ's deal, but most likely take the full time alloted just to screw with PHX

OJ is a solid replacement, just don't give him 58 million

[QuebecBaller]

Phoenix or Indiana

[Maniak]

Don't overpay.

I've always wanted him on the Suns though.

[Mr Clutch Melo]

If Phoenix can get the best out of Beasley and Mayo they have a hell of a duo. Beas and Mayo are living in the shadow of Rose, Westbrook and the others from the 08 class.

nothing is screwed for the suns its a win-win situation, sure gordon is better at this moment but who knows mayo might be goes off with dragic in the backcourt

[Sawbucks23]

I'd rather see OJ Mayo on the Suns than Gordon since Mayo is going to be cheaper. There will be money leftover to sign Brown again!

[D-Rose]

Suns are going to have one hell of a fun team to watch if they get Mayo!

Screwed as in tying up that capspace for a few days just because NOLA is being shitty about it.

They said they would match, why you gonna wait? Its literally just to mess with PHX cap situation. they are not deliberating anything

Say a team jumped in the mix and offered OJ something today, and PHX can't do squat because NOLA is jerking them around and trolling the shit outta them out of sheer disdain.

At least its not 7 day wait period like the last CBA

i know what u mean, but i think mayo promised to the suns he sign for them if nola matches, mayo has the same agent as gordon, and i dont believe someone gives him around $6,5-7million.

They're waiting to sign him because that's more money the hornets have to spend. Hornets have about $10m or so to work with now but will have closer to $4-5m to work with once we sign Gordon's offer sheet, so since they can go over the cap to sign there own players, it's wise to wait to match the offer for Gordon to go after a free agent or an amnestied player like maybe Elton Brand. They aren't trolling. It's just smart business.
