i guess that would be cool. win win situation. we get him or he leaves and we have money to get someone else… doubt itll happen though (same division, and if the suns are smart theyre gonna be getting rid of the older folks soon and handing over the keys to amare)

harris no way… we dont need another shoot first pg. we cant start 5 guards

Youre delusional if you think we can land one of those two. Especially with a package of Maggette, Jackson and Belinelli.

it would have to be something like jackson, crawford, and wright for amare, alando tucker, and goran dragic to make the salaries work and maybe the warriors would have to give up a future pick, but it would have to be made after 2 months since crawford has a 2 month trade clause.
warriors lineup:
ellis
morrow/azubuike
maggette
stoudemire
biedrins
pretty damn good
suns:
nash
crawford/bell
jackson
diaw
shaq
suns don’t look bad either and plus they would become very deep and would improve tremendously at the wings.

just dropped 47 points with 8 assists and 7 rebounds on the suns
and he scored 34 the night before

article about amare wanting to be the guy in phoenix and that he’s not sure if he wants to stay with them.if he came to the warriors he could take as many shots as he wants.i think the warriors would be a better fit for him and should probably try and make a run at him.just imagine him being paired up with monta, it would be awesome.

That goes the same for the other 27 teams in the league.

retire and coach peewee bball than play in Oakland

but i can’t stand guys who are always trying to draw fouls, flailing their arms, jumping into people and flopping. i’m already getting tired watching Maggette. i’d rather have Baron and get screwed on calls than have these Cassell-types who are always trying to fool the refs instead of just playing basketball.

why would the nets trade their starting point guard for any reason?
especially at a time were he is doing better than anyone expected.

Crawford for Rasho(expires after this season) and /or Maggette/Hendrix for Diaw

Wright, Randolph, AB or Monta? It would take some combination of those guys to get the conversation started. We don’t exactly have a lot of trade assets in the Amare category. I’m not saying that it’s impossible, I’m just saying that we will never land a guy like that without giving up some of our valuable players. No one is looking to dump an all star for two good players with loooong expensive contracts. If he ends up getting dealt it will probably be for an expiring and a young stud or two w/ draft picks.

I would probably give up Monta, Wright and Randolph and as many 1st round picks as it takes, but that probably still wouldn’t do it. The guy scores 22pts per game on 57% shooting. He gets to the line and makes them at a good rate. He rebounds pretty well. The guy is a straight beast on offense. If you put him next to a great rebounder (like AB) you’ve got quite a frontcourt.

I haven’t always been a fan of his attitude though. I’m reminded of a passage from the book 7 seconds or less, where Amare is watching a game from the bench where he spent most of the season injured and he commented on KG something along the lines of “He’s good, but he can’t carry a team like I can carry a team.” What?? Seriously? Still the guy can play. I wouldn’t mind watching him play in a dubs uni even if it took half our roster to get him.
