MEM/PHX/MIA 

Post#1 » by mavsfan3141 » Fri Feb 13, 2009 7:45 am

Hey guys. I was just messing with the trade checker and came up with this. From a non-fan of any of the 3 teams, I think this deal accomplishes what each team is trying to get done.

MEMPHIS GRIZZLES GET:
PF MIchael Beasley
PG/SG Leandro Barbosa

PHOENIX SUNS GET:
SF Rudy Gay
SF Shawn Marion
PF Hakim Warrick

MIAMI HEAT GET:
PF Amare Stoudemire
PG MIchael Conley

Memphis has to give up Gay, Conley, and Warrick, but they get back Beasley, who is a better fit, and Barbosa who can give that offense some explosiveness.

Phoenix gets cap relief this summer, a young stud in Gay, and a solid young big in Warrick.

Miami gets their man in Amare.

Thoughts?

*sigh* Heisley just rejected a deal involving those three to get Stoudemire. He's definitely not going to give up the same players just to get Beasley and Barbosa.

My opinion ... it's a horrible trade.

Nothing personal, but this really didn't need its own thread.

Marion has been traded to Toronto today. And a no go on the deal despite the real trade of Marion.
