I have heard nothing of the sort. But that doesn't meant it's not true. I'll make some calls this evening.

Uhh, OP isn't even a Suns fan, he's a troll from another team to make them look bad. You should have seen his first dozen posts on the general board...

Let me preface this by saying I love Amare and his potential. However I am growing tired of his inconsistencies and desire to be the man. You don't say you want to be the man, you just do it,. and lead by example.

I think something needs to be done. Weather it's top trade Amare and/or Nash or to fire Kerr and/or Porter. I knew Memphis would eventually fire Iavaroni, but I've been wondering what he would do back here. I also found it interesting that Porters name has come up in firing news. Amazingly enough, Amare's best years were when Iavaroni was coaching him. Since Iavaroni left for Memphis, Amare has regressed. His regression has very little to do with D'Antoni as a lot of fans have mentioned. Look at his stats with Iavaroni and without. Stats say everything with Amare.

So, If Amare stays and Porter goes, the Suns would be idiots not to at least bring back Iavaroni at least just for Amare.

Actually, that's not true at all, last season after we got Shaq, Amare looked the best he ever has since the 2004-2005 season, pre-microfracture surgery and arguably he was playing even better that season meaning he was playing the best basketball of his life, without Marc Iavaroni.

many of you are highly delusional. the on thing i certainly agree with is that PORTER SHOULD BE CANNED. but let's also not forget about uncle kerr and the rest of the wildcat band (sarver). this tag team has dismantled the suns and has left this team with no spirit.

what is the point of trading amare stoudemire and leandro barbosa?

im not sure ive ever seen anything entirely credible in terms of trade rumors, but how can these two keep being mentioned as trade candidates? barbosa is young, has a bargain of a contract, and is capable of scoring a point a minute. oh, and amare stoudemire? some of you clowns want to trade him for rasheed wallace???? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

and you think we have a **** chance to make noise in the coming years without amare stoudemire? you think steve nash is going to take us deep again, now that he plays in an unfriendly system and get DISMANTLED by 85% of the point guards in the nba on the defensive end. get rid of nash, and build this team the right way. you think that if devin harris was our pg that we would be 6-7 games over .500 right now? hell no, we'd be rollin. and enough of this shaq crap. why is he getting tons of touches when we are going nowhere with this team. YEAH! let's piss amare off some more and bring in some more over-the-hill pussies to waddle up and down the court.

If we had Devin Harris, we'd be really, really good.

I always give out misinformation. So be on the look out for the next bit.

(BTW...this is NOT to say something is coming...seriously...it's just a joke, so don't bother asking, lol).
