The Phoenix Suns and Golden State Warriors have discussed a possible trade.

League executives indicate that Phoenix could send Amare Stoudemire to the Warriors for a package that would include Andris Biedrins and the No. 7 pick in the draft.


What on earth are the Suns doing? :lol

[Muser]

:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao:lmao



Man that team is fucked.

[Indazone]

The Rockets offer is better. Beidrins and an unknown vs

Landry/Brooks and T-Mac and his 23 million dollar expiring.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

:pctoss

Update on that story.

League executives say the Phoenix Suns and Golden State Warriors have discussed a possible trade that is centered around sending Amare Stoudemire to the Warriors for a package that would include Andris Biedrins and the No. 7 pick in the draft. But Warriors coach Don Nelson is telling friends that there’s nothing seriously brewing there.

[phyzik]

damn, Phoenix is in fire sale mode it seems :lol

Maybe Kerr really is still working for the Spurs and is just applying the final nail to the coffin :lol

[sribb43]

:pctoss

What would you do if I were to give your Kerr's home address?

[Texas_Ranger]

Oh man...We can give them Finley and Bonner + all of our draft picks for him. I gues Kerr would like that. :)

[Indazone]

and so ends the Rivalry between the Phoenix Suns and the San Antonio Spurs

Maybe when he's done, he'll go screw up another team. :toast

[DBMethos]

Doesn't the other team occasionally have to win in order for it to be a rivalry?

[Spursmania]

Maybe when he's done, he'll go screw up another team. :toast

Yep.

[rayray2k8]

and so ends the Rivalry between the Phoenix Suns and the San Antonio Spurs

It really wasn't a rivalry, to be honest.
Not a rivalry if 1 team is always beating the other.

[baseline bum]

Damn, Jackson/Randolph/Stoudemire would be a hell of a running front-line. They wouldn't win any titles or anything, but that team would be fucking fun to watch.

[Indazone]

Doesn't the other team occasionally have to win in order for it to be a rivalry?

Yep, and that's why the nail is officially in the coffin. Any chance of a rivalry is now completely dead.

[Spursmania]

Whatever rivalry there was between the Spurs and the Suns has now set. Good bye Phoenix, Kerr and Sarver have done you in.

[JamStone]

Considering it does look like Kerr is blowing up the team, that's not a bad deal for the Suns. Biedrins and the #7 pick. Plus, they have the #14 pick as well. They can pick up some nice young pieces to rebuild with. It would almost necessitate trading Nash too though.

[Muser]

RC + Pop should ring Kerr and ask what it would take, then this board can really get into collusion talks. :downspin:

[baseline bum]

So RedSox/Yankees wasn't a rivalry until 2004?

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

saying the Suns and Spurs have a rivalry is like saying the hammer and the nail have a rivalry.

[rayray2k8]

So RedSox/Yankees wasn't a rivalry until 2004?

To Yankee fans.
But that's a whooole different rivalry only because of the history between the two.

[Spursmania]

RC + Pop should ring Kerr and ask what it would take, then this board can really get into collusion talks. :downspin:

Seriously...they should. At this point the Suns clearly want to rebuild and get rid of big contracts.

[rayray2k8]

So Lakers/Kings was never a rivalry?

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

I think Kerr figured, "If I can't beat the Spurs I can at least out Scola-trade them."

[Muser]

Hell fuck Amare, what will it take to get Hill?

[Muser]

I think Kerr figured, "If I can't beat the Spurs I can at least out Scola-trade them."

:lmao

[iggypop123]

they need to blow it up. nash for the knicks top pick and trash contract, then do this. 3 pics in 1st round. go nuts

[loveforthegame]

That is a terrible trade for the Warriors. Holy crap they better pass on that.

Biedrins is a young athletic freak who plays solid defense. His offense is coming along as well.

[Ditty]

beindrins is sorta of a bust

i could see the warriors being that 2007 warriors that knocked the mavs out of the playoffs if they can get a big man shooter who can run the court

[mavs>spurs2]

saying the Suns and Spurs have a rivalry is like saying the hammer and the nail have a rivalry.

:lmao

[IronMexican]

Bieds is not a bust.

[Muser]

Kerr for the HoF!

[Allanon]

The Cavs chose Shaq over Amare?

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

The Cavs chose Shaq over Amare?

As far as D12 counterpunches go, I'd take Shaq over Amare. And while he's younger, he's still got a ton of injury concerns following him. Plus he doesn't play D, which is a big no-no for Mike Brown. Plus he's dumber than dirt.

I hate Shaq as much as anyone on this board, but as a one year rental I'd probably take Shaq over Amare. Unless I was the Warriors, where Amare would only be asked to run, jump, and dunk. He's more than capable in that regard.

[sook]

how is this better than what we are offering? FML

[Cry Havoc]

The Cavs chose Shaq over Amare?

Just wow, dude. I know you couldn't care less, but I'm losing a lot of respect I had for you as a legitimate, knowledgeable poster. Did you have a bad week or something and in turn are seeking to torpedo your reputation on Spurstalk?

[Mugen]

Biedrins is a legit 5 who rebounds and block shots. Not a bust.

[Thunder Dan]

The Cavs chose Shaq over Amare?

I heard the Cavs offered Ben Wallace,Mugsy Bogues, and Kevin Garnett for him and the Suns turned them down

[Cry Havoc]

The Suns said they'd consider it if the Cavs threw in Wilt Chamberlain. Don't know why the Cavs didn't pull the trigger.

I think that would be a better move than Shaq. Only giving up Wilt Chmberlain, Wallace and KG for Amare. Thats a solid trade

[iggypop123]

they dont have to trade barbosa and draft pics

[sook]

they dont have to trade barbosa and draft pics

I know, it was just too ogod to be true. Oh well.

[N4th4n]

What the Rockets are offering is the biggest bullshit ever that is how.

[Allanon]

Just wow, dude. I know you couldn't care less, but I'm losing a lot of respect I had for you as a legitimate, knowledgeable poster. Did you have a bad week or something and in turn are seeking to torpedo your reputation on Spurstalk?

Hey, if you like Shaq over Amare, that's cool with me. That's your opinion.

I'm saying it's a mistake, Cavs should have gotten Amare if he was available. We'll find out in June.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

I heard the Cavs offered Ben Wallace,Mugsy Bogues, and Kevin Garnett for him and the Suns turned them down


We wanted leapin' Larry Nance back and Cleveland refused to trade him.

[Jeremy]

I'd definitely trade Amare for Biedrins, the #7 pick, and perhaps another young player (Randolph, Wright, or Belinelli)--as Paul Coro is reporting it: http://www.azcentral.com/members/Blog/PaulCoro/56269

[DPG21920]

Dude, if that is true, nice trade for the Suns. Amare for AB+Randolph or Wright plus the 7th pick?

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Paul Coro sucks.

[DPG21920]

DOK, would you like that deal though?

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

DOK, would you like that deal though?


Yeah probably. if they get their 2010 pick back then a definitive yes.

[DPG21920]

That would obviously be independent of this deal though. I still think it is very good deal for the Suns with our without getting the pick from OKC.

Robin Lopez for the pick is the latest, no? That is easy in your book.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Robin Lopez for the pick is the latest, no? That is easy in your book.


I'd lose a lot of respect for Sam Presti if he gave them the 2010 pick back for Lopez.

[HarlemHeat37]

If I'm Phoenix, I do the trade that was just reported on ESPN, and I wouldn't have to think much about it..

Biedrins is already a legit player with potential, Wright has potential, and they get a #7 pick..you have to do it..

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

If they get Biedrins, Wright and the #7 pick I'd jizzle my pants.

[kcplayboi_26]

if they get biedrins, wright and the #7 pick i'd jizzle my pants.

+1

[DPG21920]

They just said AB + Wright + MB + 7th pick for Amare

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

They just said AB + Wright + MB + 7th pick for Amare


Even better.....as long as they trade that Italian wank to NY since D'antoni will probably give half his team for him.

[dirk4mvp]

The Suns should be trying to get Randolph.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

The Suns should be trying to get Randolph.


I don't want a player who has hit his ceiling.

[DPG21920]

Dude, MB is not a bad player. He is much better than he gets credit for.

[dirk4mvp]

:lol

On second thought, I hope he doesn't go to the Suns. Then I'd actually like those fucks.


:splitter

[DPG21920]

I like Wright's game a lot. If he keeps working he could be nice.

[iggypop123]

I don't want a player who has hit his ceiling.

reports say he has put on weight and has actually grown an inch making him a 7footer now

[dirk4mvp]

reports say he has put on weight and has actually grown an inch making him a 7footer now

Randolph is gonna be so beast in a few years.

[bdictjames]

So when the deal goes underway, the Suns have ZERO All-Stars?

WTF. As a Spurs fan this is saddening.
