You are joking right? About the trading for B-diddy and Camby. Because I would not want to play against the Clippers with him on their team.

SF-Griffin
PF-Stoudemire
C-Kaman

That is a pretty good 3 positions and I wouldn't want to match up against it. Of course we do have the fact that if you play for the Clippers you are bound to be hurt. :)

on the other hand do you wanna play against a team like
nash / davis
d-diddy / j-rich / barbosa
deng / ghill / dudley
tythomes / tim thomas
camby / lopez???

mh, all i wanted to tell you is that i would trade him right now for any crap we could get
i rather have an 20-62 season with players that love to wear this jersey and are as proud for the
suns as we are than having this silly, sucking young millionaires on a roster and everyone is dreaming about leaving. and i mean nash and ama´re...

I just don't see anything special in him...he's good...but would be better suited as a 2nd scorer, or even the primary option on a well balanced team, not one he has to score 25-28 every night, but more like an efficient 18-22...next to Timmy D in SA for example or Wade in MIA or obviously Lebron

Probably cos he's a weird looking dude as well...his hair's a joke :D

Amare at least LOOKS like a PF. Bosh looks like a big SG

Even with the mental issues give me Amare...injuries and all...One guy can INTIMIDATE and make another team's whole defensive scheme change to prevent him scoring...give me that guy..and the better player in the playoffs...

And all the Bosh worshippers trying to say Bosh's J is far superior to Amare's....please...stop

Both suck on D, though Amare's shotblocking is at least aggressive sometimes. I have no doubt if Amare really wanted to he would put up 12rebs and 2blks...but he doesn't want to/is too lazy/preoccupied with scoring



--- Based on watching roughly 150 Raps games the last three years, Tastic is right. Bosh is a very good player but not anywhere close to being The Man. He's got great competitive spirit, can't say anything bad about his atititude, he's just not the guy you build around. A great #2 option but never going to be a dominant player. He's not great or even above average defensively, can be soft in the post - always getting the ball stripped. Can't bang down low at all, too thin.

Bosh long term...next year is the year for the Suns.
After next year what will Shaq and Nash have left? "Father time is undefeated! - Mark Jackson

That being said
Bosh would be a better fit. Personality and demeanor wise.

Chemistry is important.
If all other things are equal he's a better passe and FT shooter.

Richardson, a back up pg, and the SF's are still a major issue.

For a career Bosh is at 80% Amare is at 75%.

How is Bosh not a better FT shooter?

For a career Bosh is also a better rebounder.

If Shaq is not here neither is his talent. Not many centers in the league better than him now.
The combination of Shaq, Nash, and Bosh would be done after next year, not just Sahq being off the books.

that's a funny team suitable for DA or GS, but won't last past the first round in playoffs if it ever makes it there. sorry, but your 'hatred' for Amare seems too blinding, even on a board full of Amare haters. :D

Amare has GREATLY improved his FT shooting, to the point where they're both about equal over the last couple of years.

Yes in the last 3 years their FT% might be the same but Bosh has proved to be a better rebounder since he is longer than Amare. If I was a Suns fan I would be all over Bosh for Amare! He would work much better with Nash and his numbers would skyrocket. Playing with Calderon its tough because Jose doesnt take much chances giving him the best A/T ratio but Nash will take chances and find Bosh whether its at the rim or for an open jumper. Oh ya speaking of the jumper Amare could only dream of having that versitility that Bosh does. Bosh can hit a mid-range shot from anywhere on the floor while Amare has his 'sweetspots'. Not only would Nash make Bosh better but having Shaq would open so much more space for CB4 to operate. While with Amare he had the space to operate but he loves finishing at the rim which was clogged up by the Big Cactus. Trust me, Bosh would bring this team back to the playoffs and that would give him the motivation to sign a contract extension with the Suns. PS: Injuries have killed Amares value so getting offered Bosh is the best you can get.

Also would you guys also take Marion(Sign and Trade) for J-Rich?
