Hill won't work because of Dragic.
Steve Nash's face if Amar'e joins the Spurs:
Hill won't work because of Dragic.
I have a hard time believing the Suns would take back RJ's deal and I have a really hard time believing they'd think much of Hill considering their current team make up.
so the question is splitter for amare would you do it
assuming he wants to come over
Hill is a SG.
I agree it's highly unlikely but from the Suns standpoint it's not that bad of a trade considering they could let him walk for nothing and have to start rebuilding. Adding Hill and RJ in a run and gun system could still leave them a playoff team.
In a heartbeat.
I can see them taking Jefferson because of his contract. However, he really doesn't have a spot on the team. But if RJ was at his best with Kidd feeding him the rock, can you imagine what he could do with Steve Nash?
Hill is redundant with Dragic backing up Nash. The Suns won't take Hill. The Spurs are looking at big men because they could possibly set on the perimeter with Gino, Parker and Hill plus Garrett Temple showing a lot of promise in such a short time.
Hill's a combo guard going to a team (if traded that is) that doesn't really have a spot for him at the moment. He's not necessary for the Suns.
Good lord, that would be awesome but Sarver would never go for it.
Sign and trade:
Jefferson/Blair or Splitter for Amare
Right, they could either lose Amare and add no money to their payroll, or lose amare and add a huge contract to their payroll. Great logic
Amare hasn't opted out last I heard. If he did, then this talk is pointless. If he hasn't, the Suns are on the hook for a lot of money unless then can move him. Plus, Amare wants an extension and that will linger over the season.Right, they could either lose Amare and add no money to their payroll, or lose amare and add a huge contract to their payroll.

Everyone saw how bad the Suns played before the trade deadline.
I'm assuming they would do a sign and trade, who on the Spurs would the Suns want hto?
McDyess and RJ for Amare.
No for the following reasons:
Splitter will be making a quarter of what amare wants to make on his next contract.
Amare's knee problems are not going to go away. Yes, i understand he has been fine for 1 1/2 seasons now, but that kind of surgery makes for a shorter career.
I really do feel defensivly Splitter is already better than Amare.
The Spurs' defense has slowly declined over the last 4 years; this would drive it off a cliff.
if it's RJ + blair/splitter + maybe a first round, then yes. i don't see why the spurs wouldn't do this. they get rid of RJ and get a perennial all star in return. amare isn't a borderline all star big or impostor all star like al horford, he is the real thing. next to a good passing big like tim duncan and implementing endless pick and roll sets with parker and ginobili would destroy the opposition. his defense isn't THAT bad. besides having stoudemire on the offensive end frees up duncan to play defense and rebound.
For the mid-level exception? How dumb is Amare?
he's looking for suitors. of course he'll say he's interested.
I doubt it, simply because its the Suns we're talking about
He said he would play for the Spurs (or anyone) for the MLE? Link?
I think the point was that the MLE is the most the Spurs could offer Amare, not that he'd take it.
Ok, got it.
You're out of your ing mind.
Ha! Hey look, it's you.
