Boston has 20 guys under contract. Would they take Amare off my team for a year and get him picking and rolling with Rondo as some sort of plan B since they lost out on Love?

I would still make that trade bass/thorton and either Green or Wallace for Amare.....If we could flip thorton to another team like maybe Philly, who could obsorb his contract, that would make me happy.

I'd rather wait until next offseason and sign someone better than Wallace and Green

This is like an Abbott and Costello joke

I think we'd be better served pursuing Keith Bogan's non-guaranteed contract in the deal and pairing it with Brandon Bass to see if we could acquire Greg Monroe in a sign and trade. The only way I'd be willing to take on Gerald Wallace's contract would be under these conditions, where we could acquire a consummate starting big man. I wish Phil thought of pursuing a similar package to get Pau Gasol, who we could definitely use.
