yeesh, talk about cutting off the nose to spite the face. How long have you been a Suns fan and for what reason did you become one? The statement up above makes no sense to me as a die-hard life-long Sun fan. I would say "If we won a title, I could care less if we had to move Amare to do it" - no one man is bigger than the team.
No one is bigger than the team, but what kind of message would the Suns send to its players by trading its core player because he got hurt?
And i've been a Suns fan for over 10 years and im 22 years old, so thats damn near half my life.
It has nothing to do with just being a fan of the Suns, im also a fan of the players on the suns, especially the players like Amare who i so badly wanted them to draft and then having him fall into our laps on draft night, where i could then watch his career take off after bringing him in and grooming him into the player he has become.
It would kill alot of Suns fan to see all of that thrown away because they felt they couldnt wait on him to fully recover.
Getting Gasol could guarantee this team a title this season and i still wouldnt rather him over Amare.
We will win a title soon, we just need to be patient and allow Amare to do his thing and get back to the player he was on his way to becoming before he got derailed.
With his attitude,work ethic and him being very young still, i doubt there is anything that is going to stop Amare from being a dominant player once again.
