    Why Amare SHOULD decide to stay a Sun

    He conserves energy as he never learned the proper techniques of benting his knee throughout on defense, which he starts to learn this past season. He used to run in 'hops' from baseline to baseline, which he just stopped doing this past season. DA never cared about developing it, or at least...

    Stoudemire opts out, becomes free agent

    Sorry, my selective perception mechansim ignored things it considers irrational and absolute non-sense mechanically. ;) Why would LBJ care about helping Suns specifially, and on the costs of his new team Nets? Amare + 1 lottery pick is better than Amare, unless my basic math skill totally...

    Stoudemire opts out, becomes free agent

    You are delulsional here. Nets could trade right to Favor to any bad team for 1-2 future high draft picks to get the cap for that.:mulli:

    Stoudemire opts out, becomes free agent

    So, basically, you just seriously doubted that any team would be desperate despite having so much cap room but without a star playing to show for it.:D That's assuming a lot into the fragile human psyche.

    Why Amare SHOULD decide to stay a Sun

    Amare was part of the recruiting team to get Nash signed here, saying "it's your team". If Nash wasn't going to do some similar recruiting actions, like saying "I will give the team back to you", I guess money eslewhere would be too tempting for Amare to pass up. Under Riley, Amare would have...

    ESPN Radio Amar'e Joe Johnson tidbit...

    thanks for this. i was wondering a bit myself about why decor. the word decoy just evaded my memory completely. :D JJ makes handsome appearance on the corners indeed. Opponents often get so stunned by that, so that they forget to defend Nash in the paint. heheh.

    Suns meeting Amar'e Stoudemire, final deal extension push before July 1

    Amare was looking for reasons to stay, Sarver might not be offering enough, or just not willing to. However, if Sarver indeed convinced Amare to stay, then it means he wanted to push for contending the title for at least the next 2 years with the team and be willing to spend more, which is...

    Suns meeting Amar'e Stoudemire, final deal extension push before July 1

    totally agree. LBJ/Bosh, Wade/Amare in tandem are good enough to win. And you don't get quality role players like Artest, Fisher, Perkins, Davis, Odom just for min.

    ESPN Radio Amar'e Joe Johnson tidbit...

    It's not about criticizing Nash, my friend. It's about JJ felt his talent being under utilized. With Nash on the team, JJ wouldn't become the player he is now after going to Hawks. But if you let choose between either Nash or JJ on the team 5 years ago, I won't hesitate to take Nash over JJ...

    ESPN Radio Amar'e Joe Johnson tidbit...

    He said, verbatim, "I was fed up with being Nash's decor on the corners". As Amare was the main culprit at receiving Nash's passes more than JJ back then, this could be indeed twisted as a veiled attack at Amare.:mulli:

    Suns meeting Amar'e Stoudemire, final deal extension push before July 1

    Sarver, just save some money. It's too expensive to build a team signing people to market prices.

    Deng for J-Rich

    Infatuation with any Bulls player is a must here. Were Sarver willing to take on Deng's horrendous contract, he'd be willing to sign Amare to market price first.

    For #3 pick, you get good value, how much of a bust he is gonna be. If NO were desperate, they might dump Paul's contract on you for #3 pick.;)

    Al Jefferson Being Shopped

    Amare's main offensive problem this past season was that he lost his confidence in the midrange jumper after the eye surgery. His paint moves (I won't just talk about low post as it's only a minor part of his game) have improved a lot. He no longer commits charging fouls as often. He passes very...

    Swapping Rosters with NJ

    It's not essential whether it's 6 years. The other option for Amare would be going to Miami as FA with 5 years. The point is that he could have the same success with the same team with the same length of contract an extension would have brought him. His role will further expand to the true...

    Swapping Rosters with NJ

    DEI, my contention was that you were not taking into account of NJ and Amare's other options, which are way better options than your wishful dumping Favors' + Yi's contract for the previlege of s&t Amare who they get by FA signing anyway. It's too naive. jandaman, potentially DHoward...

    Next Season's Roster

    I did it on Real GM Nets forum. Well, Favors for a chance of 2 years immediate title runs, and be the best show in NY is incentive enough. Not to mention otherwise they'd have no chance to lure Amare there as FA. What's Favors' upside? Boozer? Horford? If it's LBJ, I'd understand their...

    Next Season's Roster

    I meant to suggest this roster: Robin/Favors/Clark/LB/Harris with CourtneyLee/Yi/Lawal + 25mil cap room worth of FA Not sure why my roster discussion thread is moved to the NBA trade subforum, at http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/f45/swapping-rosters-with-nj-153953.html

    Swapping Rosters with NJ

    Harris gets them good return in trade by himself. They don't need to trade him or Favors to get Amare. There won't be such deal at all, unless NJ has a championship contender right away. No, your deal has no way to happen because two ouf of the 3 parties needed won't do it. For cap relief...

    Jerry Colangelo a candidate to replace Rod Thorn in New Jersey

    That'd be perfect situation for my idea of building the NJ Suns in one stroke! ;) http://www.arizonasportsfans.com/vb/f7/swapping-rosters-with-nj-153953.html

    Swapping Rosters with NJ

    I have a crazy idea, now Sarver would rather rebuild. Send the core of the team to NJ for immediate cap relief and huge TE plus young talents: Amare(s&t)/Nash/Hill/Dudley/JRich/Dragic/Lou (s&t) for Favors/Yi/Harris/Lee/Humphries Given the Suns already letting Amare walk and having no use for...

    Bulls Ready To Build Another Dynasty

    Miami's move indicates Amare is going there. No coincidence that it happened after Amare's knee examination in Miami. It's hilarious to think that Wade and LBJ could coexist on the same team other than the National team. If they really believe in having three max players they'd go after JJ. But...
