I'm the new Reggie White. (RIP) I'm going 2 Israel 2 study Hebrew. It's time 2 get a better understanding on who we R. Follow me !! Shalom...words fail me.On the flight to Israel. This is going to be a great trip. The holy land. Learn about it. This ze ha'halom sheli. Shalom.
All trolling aside, I'm not sure what's wrong with him being a Jew. I mean if you're going to worship an imaginary daddy figure one's just as good as the other.
I don't think anyone finds anything wrong with it, just that it's funny and doesn't make any sense.
next stop... Carnegie Deli!
Maybe he just wants to get better at managing money.
Tbh he shoulda revealed this while negotiating an extension with the Suns, Sarver would have surely sprung for a guaranteed 5 year deal if it was for a Jew.
It's the 'holy , where the did that come from?' factor that had me speechless.
It came from him being a complete sellout.
The greatest thing that he ever did in his entire career is leave Phoenix. Good for him
This is isn't something new since he signed with NY. He's been using Hebrew words for quite awhile now. And remember that interview with his mother during the WCF, after she was arrested? She insisted on using the Hebrew name for God.
Now DOK's Amare man crush finally makes sense.
This is true. Look at this Tweet from May:

He didn't just decide he was Jewish since he got traded.
"I don’t really consider myself to be a religious person, but rather a deeply spiritual individual,” Stoudemire told the Post.
“I have been aware since my youth that I am a Hebrew through my mother, and that is something that has played a subtle but important role in my development,” he went on.
“I have never hid my spiritual roots,” he said. “They just weren’t something that came under the spotlight.”
Stoudemire added that he had always channeled his spirituality through the way he played basketball.
“I am proud to be a Hebrew and embrace my Jewish background,” he said Told that his new status might give him more “street cred” in his new home – as New York has the largest Jewish population outside of Israel – Stoudemire laughed deeply and said, “I look forward to that.
This season is going to be great, and bonding with the New York fans is going to be special also.
“I’d like to thank all my fans in Israel and my supporters worldwide,” he added. “I plan on having a great vacation and learning a whole lot as well.”

Amare is crafty.
No generalizationist.
God Amare's mom is one ed up human being if she's a member of the tribe on top of all her issues.
What the ? Seriously? I mean it's in the Jerusalem Post, not the Onion...wow.
Yes and now I heard he can play for Israel in the Olympics if he wants to.
He and Omri Caspi will bully deez s in 2012.
That explains the big nose
but sarver's cheap and you know amare wasn't going to take less.
You don't know how the Jew works. I'm not really a practicing Jew anymore, but most practicing Jews lack any logic or reasoning when dealing with other Jews. When I lived in a really Jewish area there was a ty ass pizza place owned by a Jewish family that was overpriced as , yet every Jew went there just because the place was owned by a Jewish family. The coulda bought better pizza at half the price at pizza hut, but most Jews act like the Jewish religion is a fraternity of some sort and you need to stay loyal to Jews in any way possible. My family that lives in Connecticut is liberal as it gets, but they blindly voted for Joe Leiberman over Ned Lamont in the 2008 primary just because he was Jewish even though he basically betrayed the Democratic party. Remember how John McCain had Joe Leiberman campaigning in Miami? It was done because that's how old die hard Jews work, they'll see another Jew camaigning for someone and nothing else will matter.
The point I'm trying to make is, if Sarver acted like your typical Jew, he woulda overpaid Amare had he known Amare was Jewish.
