The "jersey" bit was made up, to show how close they were to coming to Phoenix.

Even if they didn't backout Amare said he wouldn't have signed an extention with them. I think the bigger mistake was not trading Amare to the Wizards when they were offering the #5 pick and Jamison for Amare because I'm sure they would rather have had one year of Amare than Mike Miller..., could have drafted Curry and traded Jamison to Cle like he was this year. What could have been...


I actually liked this deal a lot more at the time. I wanted the Suns to make this deal happen.

Even Amare was set to go and it was basically a done deal from what I read at the time.

Return to Phoenix Suns
