Hopefully someone youtubes the Brook Lopez interview afterward where he sounds like a stoner from the mid 90's http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x-_DiMkR9Rw
I don't think Hollinger has any inside info. I think he's just speculating. The Suns front office knew they were going to fire Porter before they made Amare available.
http://www.brightsideofthesun.com/ This blog was the first to report Porter would be fired a few days ago, FWIW. Some dude on RealGM named "Black Jesus" reported the deal was done a few days ago. They don't know if he's legit or not.
