We could get him is we only need to send over RJ.
I'd just to take this oppurtunity to remind everyone who's bagging on Amare's admitted weaknesses that this is the same mother er who put up an insane 65.6 TS% two years ago and has been in the low to mid 60s in TS% the past four seasons. Plus he was rookie of the year well before Nash arrived and with that ball dominating chucker Starbury at the point to boot.

If you watched that series at all you would know Amare was getting most of his points on isos against Gasol and was playing just as good if not better when Nash was off the court, this isn't 2007 Amare anymore offensively, he's actually better at scoring off isos than he is off pick and rolls now. Offensively he'd be a great fit for San Antonio but that really doesn't matter.
San Antonio shouldn't have a ton of interest in Amare is because his bad D is only going to be magnified by Duncan's declining defense at C and San Antonio not having a good defender at SF. If they still had a prime Duncan who could box out effectively and anchor the low post, and a prime Bowen who could force elite perimeter defenders to take off balance shots when they drive, Amare would flourish on San Antonio as a help defender and shot blocker. It's a pointless hypothetical though because if San Antonio still had a prime Duncan and Bowen they wouldn't need Amare for any reason.
yes... anyone who says no to Amare on this team is silly
Gee, a free agent mentions the Spurs because of their team play and winning at ude in order to boost his market value. Never seen that before.
after microfracture surgery makes your knees better for 3 yrs then there is a SIGNIFICANT downfall.
Amare is not worth a max contract. not even close.
RJ's expiring contract might be a catch for Sarver.
And yes we need a quick relief like Stoudemire!
tbh everyone knows we're not really getting Stoudamire but its at least something to talk/fantasize about.
Well if that's the case I hope the Spurs sign my fictional C/PF/SF/PG hybrid player Dominick Huerta Orosco James. He is 6'11, runs a 3.2 40 and has a 95 inch vertical leap. He shoots 98% from beyond the arc and has a 11 foot wing span. He can easily dunk from half court and rebounds at a 34/game rate. I think he can be had for the LLE.
1. A chance of Amare landing in San Antonio this summer are almost non existent
2. He isn't worth anything near what he will get, no matter where he lands and for how much
/thread
Thanks for your knowledgeable insight Jermaine.
I would rather have Bosh but both are on the unlikelys anyway.
Spelling criticism from you? LoL. Thats kinda cute you care for him.
jermaine shut the up you aint really black or else you would know blair would ball all over amare....
If that was the case why didn't he do it during the playoffs?
Point is, Amare doesn't want to go to the Spurs, but he's dropping their name to help repair his image as a me-first, -the-team type of player. He knows the Spurs wouldn't have him, which is precisely why he wants to associate himself with defense and winning.
I'm a spurs fan but I'd trade everyone not named Duncan(and maybe Manu) for Amare. Amare is a top 5 big man. SMH @ those saying they wouldnt trade Splitter(who is unproven in the NBA!) OMG..OMG
some perceptions cannot be repaired.
I'm all about Stoudemire to the Spurs. It would be awesome if we can get PHX to so a sign and trade involving RJ.RJ's expiring contract might be a catch for Sarver.
And yes we need a quick relief like Stoudemire!
The potential for millions of dollars is going to encourage him to keep trying, and the tried-and-true method of doing it is to mention the Spurs. Next he'll be talking about how he might take less than max money to go to San Antonio, and then watch the mouth-breathers that think Amare's anything special go crazy.
Has it occured to anybody that possibly the OP might be a troll?
Just look at his 8 posts, half of them are threads that Kori locked including one where "the Spurs were on the verge of securing David West"
Amare is a ing re . I don't want him even though this would never happen anyway.
LOL so did anyone in the thread confirm if Ric Bucher even said it on the radio?
