kerr is . amare is gone. marion gone for nothin...
Don't ask me why, all I know is Nash wants Amare traded. Gambo and Ash have reported it multiple times, and Nash's comments about "Wanting more active big men" weren't just subtle jabs at Shaq, they were jabs at Amare as well. Nash has made it pretty clear he wants Amare gone. Nash has also made it clear he doesn't care about making the playoffs, very clear.
But as far as Amare goes, they're simply not getting any good offers. It would have been great if our GM knew how to shop a player quietly so the player didn't hear about it, but I'm giving Amare credit because he has remained relatively quiet about it. I actually think it's unfair how much Amare's "bad at ude" is exemplified, he's by no means a model citizen but Nash is a way bigger selfish prick than Amare is.
Unless they were to get Anthony Randolph, this Golden State deal should be dead.

I want to get laid as much as possible in the off-season.
You never know. Maybe the Cavs realize he's gone anyway and decide to hitch their wagon to the Peja Stojakavic express.
Oh come on, at least wish for something remotely possible like redzero.
If Amare is traded, don't completely blame Kerr. And as a Nash fan, you have no right to whine about a player being traded when Nash was behind him being traded. Nash wants Amare traded just as much as he wants Shaq traded.
It's disgusting Nash is able to hide behind Kerr and blame him for all the trades he campaigned for.
I'm a rocket fan, so you already know whats on my wishlist. If tmac made a full recovery, and come back to his orlando form that be just sweet.
If they are going to keep Amare and Nash, then they should swap Wallace for Chandler, resign Hill for one more year and make a go at things for two years.
But all of that would require Sarver spending money on an unproven group of players, so that's highly unlikely to happen.
T-mac goes back to Orlando form miraculously.
Yao does something, ANYTHING, to make himself be able to survive the NBA.
Artest takes a chill pill.
Brooks learns not to play like Rafer.
Landry gets the mad hops he had in his rookie season.
So in a nuts , I want to be like a spoiled child this off season.
Its as much about moving on and ending an era(The Nash Era) as it is about rebuilding.
Just because us tanking does OKC a favor doesn't mean we should hold on to the fantasy off a first rd exit and extend Nashy,resign G.Hill, and go all in to compete for one season. B_L_O_W I_T U_P
My wish? Nash to the KNICKS.....soon.
Here's a question worth asking.
With Utah being stuck with the contracts of players like Boozer, Okur and Korver for an additional year, therefore hindering their ability to resign restricted FA Millsap, would Utah be interested in trading Boozer to Phoenix, striaght up, for Ben Wallace?
If the reports on Wallace are correct, then the money saved via buyout or retirement could enable Utah to resign/match for Millsap.
And, unlike a Wallace for Chandler trade, which requires Phoenix to take on an additional year of 10+ million in salary, Boozer is done this next offseason.
I know he's not a defender, nor an athlete, but he's a quality player and worth the trade, IMO, again, providing Utah is desperate enough to trade Boozer for nothing (which isn't a reach considering they were willing to let him walk, and are reportedly trying to trade him during this offseason).
JMJ that's an interesting idea. Truthfully though, I think Sarver's #1 goal this off season is to trim payroll. I know Kerr says he thinks this team will be good next year but I think they both know the team is going to suck, Sarver doesn't care about how good the team is because IMO he's going to sell it before it has any chance at being good again.
It's a solid money-making plan, though. Boozer ads better athleticism than Shaq and about equal rebounding. Again, the defense will be subpar, but with improved rebounding, maybe that can be lessened?
If Sarver wants to make money with one last run, I think Boozer is there for the taking.
That's the commitment necessary to get Hill to resign (likely).
It's not a le-contender, so ultimately it is just postponing a rebuild, but with approximately 50 million coming off the CAP in Nash, Amare, Boozer, Pavlovic, Amundson, Tucker, Dudley and Maybe Lopez, the Suns wouldn't exactly be any worse off for their future for making the trade and, again, would make more money than if they simply run a sub-par team out to lose half their games.
Oh I agree it's a great trade for them but it doesn't save any money. They'll probably use the amnesty provision on Wallace which doesn't provide any cap relief but eliminates the luxury tax possibility.
"And if I had two wishes for this offseason..."
Since everyone else is cheating and throwing out more than 1 wish...
1) KG comes back healthy, for the whole year, including playoffs.
2) We don't trade Rondo.
3) We resign Powe and Big Baby.
4) The papparazzi get a picture of Kobe wearing ballerina tights while sucking off LeBron James.
