ESPN's John Hollinger thinks that the Suns' deal to acquire Jason Richardson is a veritable steal:
"The deal for Jason Richardson, Jared Dudley and a 2010 second-round pick cost him only Raja Bell, Boris Diaw and Sean Singletary, and it immediately restores the Suns' flagging hopes of breaking back into the West's upper crust. Phoenix Suns GM Steve Kerr has faced a lot of questions during his short stewardship of the Suns, but the only question to ask after Wednesday's trade with Charlotte is whether he was wearing a ski mask."
Raja Bell is not the player he was two years ago, so this trade is essentially Jason Richardson for Boris Diaw, so let's take a look at each player's numbers:

Raptors vs. Bobcats - The Day After
Yikes. When the Bobcats are posting points on you not once, but twice in a week, you have defensive issues. Wait, you have defensive issues, rebounding issues, transition issues…I'm talking Bobby & Whitney in the 90s sized issues. But before we get into the Raps and their shameful loss to the Bobcats, let's take a minute to remember the man that was Rasho. The man who...
