Just heard him talking on ESPN and this is what he thinks - even though it is just an analysts thoughts, if Amare ends up in Cleveland I say it really hurts our chances of getting Lebron in 2010.

If the chemistry works. Remember, word is is that Amare don't like playing second fiddle. Stranger things have happened...

I think that LeBron and Amare can work really well. LeBron is more Magic than MJ.

The $64,000 question. Wally would be the expiring contract. After that - Gibson, Hickson and pick???

The Portland deal is better than that IMO. LaFrentz's expiring, Aldridge, Bayless....

People out of Portland were howling that they were giving up too much... and they might not be wrong. LaMarcus might wind up the more well-rounded, better player than Amar'e on his own. To throw in a chip like Bayless for kicks seems excessive.

The Cavs cannot get Amare. That makes zero sense.

If its a total salary dump, then why would they dismiss a trade with the Knicks?

Phoenix is the most effed up franchise lately.

Almost any team in the league could put together a better package than Cleveland.

^^^ for real, Hickson and some picks in the 26-30 range???? Our deal is way better then that.

lebron wants to be a global icon, signing with the knicks is the thing to do. cleveland is bush league.

For pure dump sake, we can give the suns great relief.

Question is really who wants him bad enough? Is he a talented headcase?

I can't see Amare in Cleveland. Chicago maybe.
