Cleveland Fans...would you do this deal?
Suns trade Amare and Shaq
Suns get Ben Wallace, Sam Dalembert, Thad Young, Sasha Palvovic, JJ Hickson Phi 1st 2010, Cleveland 1st 2009
Phi trades Dalembert, Thad Young 2010 1st.
Phi get Amare
Cleveland trades Wallace, Sasha, JJ Hickson and 2009 1st
Cleveland gets Shaq
Deal works on the trade Checker. Do you think this is a deal that works for all three teams since it is based on a rumor on realgm?

Andre Miller is a bad 3pt shooter.

The Cavs need to get younger on the front line not trade JJ and a first to get older

Im just goin by what Cleveland is presumed to be goin after. Apparently they want Shaq. I dont know why but maybe they think Shaq will get Lebron the chip like he did Kobe and Wade lol.

Re: Cleveland Fans...would you do this deal?
Honestly Shaq is not done he was an 18 and 8 center last year. Without a dominant figure in the post, Orlando will be tough to beat if you meet them in the playoffs next year and that could mean losing lebron.

Re: Cleveland Fans...would you do this deal?
You can't overpay for a player just because of Lebron. He's going to do what he's going to do. However giving up Wallace, Hickson and a first along with the possible loss of Varejao makes the Cavs brittle and incredibly old on the front line with nobody to play the games that Shaq won't be able to because of injury and Z can't play the minutes. The Cavs also would have nobody at the 4 except Darnell Jackson.

Re: Cleveland Fans...would you do this deal?
No way. We could get shaq alone for a lot less so why would we make a three-way and ship out even more to let someone else get Amare. Now if we got Amare then all of that would e fine. But we could get Shaq for prolly Ben and Sasha and maybe a pick. I want Amare!

Re: Cleveland Fans...would you do this deal?
Absolutely not. The most I want us to give up for Shaq is Wallace and Sasha's contracts, but not until all other avenues have been explored.

Nope. I'm really not on the Shaq bandwagon. As a last resort I'll take it if we can't find anything better, but we need to be building a core for long term success.

Wallace and Sasha is more than enough in this case. At Shaq's age and with his salary that's all Suns can get back.

I would trade Ben and Sasha for Shaq if nothing better is out there. There is zero chance I would add more to that.

NO
Cavs best offer for Shaq will be Wallace, Pavs and a 2nd round Pick.
