What if the Suns just want to start over and Amare for Big Z and a pick does them good?

That might end the LeBron sweepstakes right there.

Just speculating...

If Pheonix wants to reset then thats the perfect deal for them....that would piss Steve Nash off too since he only stayed cuz he felt loyal and thought the Suns could compete. Would Pheonix do Nash a solid and trade him to the Knicks??? Nash loves NYC and is here all summer doign all types of wild ****.

just bloggin

Successful Trade Scenario
Congratulations on a successful trade.
Due to New York and Phoenix being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. New York and Phoenix had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

That's true. It doesn't appear that the Suns are in blow-it-up mode. They had a brilliant start and are now struggling a bit, but still good for 7th in the tough, tough West. So what it is is a situation where they're trying to get something for Amare S. instead of letting him walk for free come end of the season. Amare S. was never a jovial man there in Phoenix, even when they were ripping it up with Coach MDA. Chances of Amare S. being traded before the deadline? 100%, the writing is clear on the wall in front of me.

So they're not getting rid of Nash. Just attempting a quick retool for next year. How many years does Nash have on his contract? He's playing out of his mind right now at this old age.

WE AIN'T NOWHERE WITH THIS BUM CHOKER IN CARMELO. GIVE ME STARKS'S 2-21 ANY DAY OVER THIS LACKLUSTER CLUSTEREFF.

Just like he did with Jennings?

HOw many years did MDA coach Jennings?

So then they just traded Amare for Jeffries.

The reason I mentioned Z is because of his contract. If the Suns are truly dumping Amare then they are rebuilding and want cap space. Cap space and a pick for a player who will just walk away for nothing at the end of the year could be enticing.

Cleveland could throw in a kid as well but I don't think too highly of their youth. Not sure anyone does.

The Suns trading Amare isn't going to be a talent for talent swap.

D Lee would improve dramatically playing with Steve Nash... if they could work out a S&T i think a trade w/Phoenix is possible.

After 7 years & 40K+ posts, banned by martin for calling Nalod a 'moron'. Awesome.
