Arizona Republic - The Phoenix Suns are in talks about participating in NBA Europe Live 2008, possibly in Brazil, according to Suns Vice Chairman Sam Garvin.
Andrew Messick, NBA senior vice president of international operations, met with Garvin here and the two discussed setting up Phoenix for another NBA Europe Live-type experience with a tournament capper or a single game abroad somewhere.
"They've been happy with us and we've been happy with them," Garvin said of the past week's Suns training camp in Italy. "The owners like it. The players like it. The coaches like it. The NBA likes it. I passed the questions, 'What's next?'
"He (Messick) said we'd love to have you consider Brazil for 2008."
