Jesus, what's up with the recent flood of Amare trade proposals? Did ESPN pretend he's on the block, or what?!
Anyway, no, we wouldn't trade Amare for CB4, and neither would the Raptors. Each player means way too much to his team to do this deal. I also doubt exchanging those two guys would do too much for Toronto or Phoenix.
And once again: no matter whether Chris Sheridan, Kevin Ring-a-Ding-Dong or Batman himself pretended the opposite to be the case - Amare Stoudemire is NOT available, we're NOT going to trade him, he'll continue playing for the Suns (as long as either Orlando or Cleveland don't start trying to get rid of Dwight/Bron for some weird reason).
Pretty glad this trade won't happen, btw, since I love my two favorite team's superstar big men players exactly where they are right now

You guys are lucky to have the best yound big in the L.
Ummmm what? where did you get this from?
And Dwight is the best young big in the league, Amare is an elder statesman at his age

Agree with all (except the perkins + allen comment, kind of confused by that)...I just read something on CBSSports.com that mentioned this. Peaked my interest, thought it might yours as well...

Agree. Once we get Amare a good true 4/5 to play next to him his foul trouble and all the smack talk about his D would subside. I'm very happy with his help defense on the weak side, it's his man to man defense that leaves much to be desired.
I'd only trade him for Dwight. Even then I think Amare might be better suited for the current Suns system because of his offense and shooting being better than Dwights.

his D is improving,
but he is better as a help side defender as you said
i think his man D is good, but not worthy of putting him on the duncans of the league especially when he is trying to avoid foul trouble
duncan doesnt have to defend amare, so why should it go the other way?
once nash retires, we may have a lean year, but as we then hand the team to amare, and build around him, i have no doubt that will involve a TRUE C to play next to him

In so many words, yes.

I believe the thread discussing this has a title along the lines of "Chris Sheridan has lost his mind."[/url]

i think STUDemire is like one the best centers, better then dwight
HA! that's a shocker...I would only just do Marion+Barbosa for that, and you want Amare AND Marion or Barbosa?

Haha, thanks for letting me know, impulse. This explains the flood of Amare trade proposals on the trade board that are driving me nuts all day long. Awesome, one semi-retarded clown writes some bull and RealGM goes nuts

thats not crazy talk Jefferson is the 6th leading scorer in the NBA if u havent noticed, Kristic is one day going to be a 20-7 center and williams is like another studmire with with lesser offense and more rebounding, how is this crazy

i dont get it
Guess you don't know him then. He's been a poster on the Suns board and got waived twice (two different accounts). He usually used the same avatar as you do, so I actually thought he signed up again before noticing your signature that makes it pretty obvious you're a Nets fan.
That's all, it just confused me a little at first, didn't want to make fun of you or anything.
