    Default Crazy idea

    http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMa...tradeId=ausk9b

    We all heard that suns are trying to move Amar'e. Well this is just a crazy idea, and usually i am the guy to sh!t on these. But i am just saying, what if we acquired him?

    Even i think i am getting out of line, after all, on these boards, I am Javert and everybody else is Jean Valjean. BUT i was just thinking, maybe too hard. The trade i tried worked. What do yall think?

    Second, Im hesitant in all trades involving Wallace. I would first like to know if this is possible at all before i pass judgement.

    It said 'This Trade is Successful' so i am guessing it is fiscally possibly. IDK what yall think, i think its impossible, but a Okafor-STAT-Diaw-Bell-DJ lineup is good enough to be a contender in the east.

    But the problem is, so is Mek/Diaw/Wallace/Bell/Felton. When everyone was healthy, we had a great little run going.

    I'd be willing to do that trade if Wallace has difficulty returning from his injury, but until then I don't want to give up our two hardest workers for someone who seems to have a bad attitude

    I see your point and find it very agreeable.

    But STAT's attitude is different. I think he is just mad at the way Steve Kerr is managing the team, he doesnt like the direction things are going, so he is acting out. I think whatever team acquires him will have a pumped up motivated superstar looking for revenge.

    I dont know how bad that would be for us.

    Consecutive playoff appearances, title contention, and national media attention. None of that is appeling? Plus, the Suns were a older team in the west. We would be a younger team than them, with a better Coach (LB eats D'Antoni's for breakfast), and we would play defense.

    Is it really that terrible?
    But i see your point, forging our own identity is most likely a better path.

I like the chemistry we have and in no way would I want to destroy that by getting rid of Raymond and Crash. What stands out most to me about this trade is that we already got a third string pg in Singletary from Phoenix but he is by no means ready to get any serious playing time. The only way I even think about a trade involving Felton is if we get a clear backup to DJ Augustine. Gerald and Felton are better combined than Amare Stoudemire could be for our team. So though this trade works out it is not logical or beneficial to our team imo. It is intriguing to say the least and I would love to have Amare but not at the price it would cost our team to get him. Thanks for floating this trade by everybody and I appreciate everybody's contributions to the forum.

    Already the team is getting offers for Raymond but nobody want's to give fair value in return. It may have been that in the past other organizations thought our FO was gullible patsies but I can see that our Bobcats FO is not going to be that way any longer.
