surrounded by talent in Phoenix? I take it Amare has more faith in Kerr than most people do. He might want to reconsider. At the current rate he'll be surrounded by nobody. Kerr seems to be trying to get rid of the majority of the team.

I don't know if Amare actually believes that there is more talent in Phoenix but sometimes the devil you know is better than the one you don't know.

However, I am inclined to believe that Golden State would be better talent wise but once again if Amare believes being a Sun is better for him then I can't really knock him.

Reason Amare does not want to go to GSW, he look at roster after the trade deal, and went WHO is the Center? Ronny Turiaf, wait...ME NOT ME!

Even he came up in D'Antonio's system, he may not have the same faith in Nelson.

It does not matter where he gets traded. He has no say to where he wants to go. He is not a free agent. It's best to shut up and just play because you won't know if you are going to play for the team that you might be dissing now.

lol.....good point
Amare is going to whomever offers the most

Come to Washington--we'll give you any two players on the roster and a future draft pick in exchange. In the spirit of Billy Mays, I'll throw in Andre Blatch and a sham-wow ABSOLUTELY FREE!!

Kerr needs to accomodate his wishnlist like he did for Shaq. Most General Managers make trades in the interest of the team butif y're Kerr and y've been sent to Generally Damage Phoenix you might as well keep the dumb moves streak going and trade Stoudemire to Knicks for Eddy Curry and Darko Millicic.

Portland would have surely given Phoenix a better package than the useless bodies they obtained from Cleveland. Point is why treat Amare differently?

well if he feels that way he should go 2 GS, score 35 a nite (and still lose lol) and raise his vaule 4 the 2010 FAM.

I was thinking the same thing. Won't he average 30+ a game in the Warriors' system? From a selfish standpoint, its not a bad move.

I heard Kerr is a pretty decent 3-point shooter? maybe that's the talent Amare was talking about in PHX. Can't wait for Kerr's next "moves"!! Each of them have been gems, and actually makes me wonder if you need to have ANY type of qualifications at all to become a GM in the NBA!!!
Surely, my YMCA team captain couldn't have done any worse.

(Kerr's Bushism - "If the deal works out, then I'm a genius. Otherwise , I'm a moron") (When you toss a coin, the probability of each outcome is 50-50)

Regardless of where he ends up, he just wants to up his stats for a big payday!!! If he stays put in Phoenix, with the re-implementation of D'antoni's system, he will put up huge numbers as the Suns first scoring option.

going to Golden State is ont an upgrade in teams
but man, what the H is Kerr doing in Phoenix?
Also it may be better to move this year, too many players on the block on '10

Actually he probably wouldn't cause they have several guys that
will be competing with him for shots.....

Bottom line is he wants the $$$$ AND he want's to be on a
contending team- not bad desires....but not likely psosible

talk about be stuck between "A ROCK AND A NO PLACE""" sorry Amare you are in one of those lose lose situations....

I'd think Amare would love to go to the Warriors. Amare doesn't believe in defense and neither does Nellie so...

Amare need to take that eye patch from his injured eye. He may feel confortable playing in Phoenix because he's been there for a while now, but, Golden State have much more talent than the Suns, and for what they have proposed; the Warriors will have all of there core players there if the trade should happen. Phoenix won't win anything next season, the window has closed, and no; Odom won't sign to play there next season either.

Sad, but with Kerr around could be just true...

He'll do the best in Phoenix this year, they'll give him the opportunity to score 26 a game, and if he tries on the boards, its all set for him to average a double double.
