Kaman for Amare? 

Post#1 » by illastrate » Fri Feb 6, 2009 12:11 am

Kaman + filler for Amare. I don't care if he decides to leave in 2010...he'll produce more in 1.5 yrs than Kaman will in 4 yrs. :D

The Suns would never do that trade... However they would do a trade involving Marcus Camby & Thorthan for Amare.. would you?

Possibly. If it involved Matt Barnes somehow, I'd consider it.

Who cares about Matt Barnes. I'd do this trade yesterday. I'd even throw in the Wolves pick.

We could then fill our SF spot through the draft and with the MLE.

I'd prefer it to be Randolph though. No need for two scoring bigs. Neither one of them would want to play second fiddle.

Amare cancels out Zach so I'd leave this trade alone if I were GM. Also, Barnes would only be a wise acquistion if we could keep AL not let him go. :crazy:

With our luck Amare would come here and his knee would go out on day one.

If we could obtain him for a package of Z-Bo, Al and the Minnesota pick, then I'd do it. Phoenix likely declines.

I would totally do this trade, but I don't think PHX would. They might take Kaman + Thornton + ???, but Amare is a star and it will take a lot to get him.

Why would Phoenix want Kaman? He plays like what, 10 games a season? :lol:

^ I don't trust our training staff to keep Shaq healthy. I would be opposed to any Shaq deal for that reason.

No thanks.

We're not in title contention, so trading for Shaq makes no sense at all.

Also, whe the heck should then play pg for us? Fred Jones is nice, but he should only see limited minutes at that spot.

BTW: I don't think trading for Amare is anything the Clipps should and are thinking about. He'd most likely just walk next year, after his injury(which he'd suffer during his first practise as a Clipper :roll: ) has been healed completely. :lol:

I wonder if Suns fans still consider the Boom for Nash swap...
