Suns to trade Amare for Al Jefferson + 6th pick

[ducks]

Dodgers' eighth walk-off victory of the season, the most in baseball
their luck will stop soon
tonight they tried to pull it out again late to run this stat up and blew it

[Xylus]

Amare > Jefferson

But with the 6th pick involved, I'd do that trade in a heartbeat.

Who do you think the Suns would look to get with the pick?

Sarver will probably sell the pick

AL > Amare. Amare sucks on defense, poor rebounder too.

[DPG21920]

If this happens, it's up there with Pau Gasol level trade. Al is as skilled a 24 year old you will ever find.

LMAO at you sons acting like Amare is Kwame and Pau is Jefferson.

[ginobili's bald spot]

Great trade for the Suns.

[Obstructed_View]

Gasol took horrible teams to the playoffs. Jefferson took horrible teams nowhere.

Jefferson is younger so he gets a little bit of a bump but they are about equal in terms of trade value ... especially when you factor in the torn ACL.

Gasol turned Kobe into a champion.

Breaking news.

I thought Kevin McHale was fired? They apparently found the one person who would be a worse GM.

[jman3000]

Normally it's pretty damn bad. But when he's trying hard, he's pretty good. He's D'ed up Duncan pretty damn well the last few seasons.

Amare's defense sucks no matter what.

All I know of Jefferson is from what I've seen from watching him play the Spurs. From what I've seen the guy is an absolute beast. He has a very soft hook from up close and a decent 15 foot jumper. I would have thought he was a pretty good defender from what I've seen against Tim... even though I think Tim actually missed a game against the T-Wolves this season.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

We know this is a good trade merely based off the curb stomping Jefferson delivers to Amare whenever they play one another.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

I seriously doubt how legitimate these rumors are. Every single person who posted in this thread knows it's a rip off for the Suns, however dumb he is Minnesota's GM can probably figure this out.

[Blackjack]

I just did some poking around (mind of the gutter pervs) and I just can't see this as legit.

Everything I've seen has Minnesota trying to decide between Evans and Curry, but that they're doing everything in their power to acquire the 2nd pick.

Add that to how lop-sided I've already mentioned I view this trade, and I won't believe it until I see it.

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Amare overrated ass will disappear just like Marion did once this trade happens.

Lakaluva has it nailed. Just like Marion, he'll be exposed for not being able to create his own shot in a traditional offense. Once he left the comforts of the Antoni-Nash offense, it was pretty clear marion couldn't create wind if you gave him a in windmill.

Don't windmills pump water or create electricity if you give them wind?

you know windmills were around before commercial electricity right?

Stop being a you get my point.

The only way this trade is legit is if the Minnesota GM really wants to trade Jefferson for whatever reason. If he's dead set on trading Jefferson, you'd probably have to trade him for another big. If that's the case, there are that many options out there better than Amare.

But that doesn't explain the draft pick thrown in . . .

Kevin McHale's protege must have taken over as GM.

This would be a steal for the Suns, unless Al's knee is ed.

I do now.

Al's knee is no more ed than Amare's eye.......or Amare's knee for that matter

[KidCongo]

Al and Amare haven't returned from this current injuries but Amar''''es knee is stable isn't it?

[timvp]

A'm'a'r'e's days are over if he loses athleticism. Jefferson probably could survive if he lost athleticism.
