Amare Discussion ( 

Post#1 » by myersia » Sat Jul 13, 2013 2:43 pm

Here me out before you kill me :lol: . First and foremost I love Pau. I do no want to trade Pau by any means. However, I am just thinking out loud and would like to hear back from fellow lakers fans. Would you as a laker fan consider trading for Amare. I understand that he is injury-prone. I understand that he has had issues in the past. However, with his huge expiring contract and in MDA's system he may be useful. I am not trying to recreate the Phoenix Suns but if something works why not try it. Would you consider an Amare for Pau trade?

Doesn't his huge contract go on for a few more years? Pau is better than Amare, his contract is up after 1 more season and no....just no.....

I can't put my finger on it, but something about this thread doesn't sound right.

Pau is better than Amare even in this system. At least Pau can still play on the floor.

I always thought that the only person who can make Amare the Amare of PHX is Steve Nash, but I know that Pau is better player.

It was my understanding that Amare's contract expires next year. If his contract has an additional year you can delete this thread lol.

Nevermind looked it up. He does have an additional year on his contract. I am deleting this thread :lol:

Edit: Obviously can't delete it. Mods please lock this thread. I had a star24 moment and thought out loud which resulted in me saying something stupid. :lol:

As an old PHX fan, the 7 Seconds Stat was a monster, undeniably. But while NY would love to unload him, they have nothing to offer. Pau is a brilliant player and an expiring at almost $20 million. So, no

I hope Amare punches another fire extinguisher so we can never ever discuss this topic ever again.
