Blockbuster Deal Destined To Die

[SpursFanFirst]

Yeah your like me spursfan I was thinking it would go through just because all the so called analysis including the local sports reporters were saying that it is a guarantee that KG will not be in a Minny uniform next season then again I don't know much about trading and signing players and evidently the "sports analysis" don't know either although it was a surprise to me that PHX was willing to give up a young good explosive player for a player that is not so young and not so explosive but I guess that is why PHX was trying not to put Amare in the deal and just Marion

With all the talk and pandemonium of the past few days, I half expected to see video of Garnett walking through the Minneapolis airport with his ticket stamped "Phoenix."
Oh well, whatever.

DUMBASS!

The Suns were never even involved with these trade talks. They have NO DESIRE to trade Amare for anyone in the league:

Riiiight. Like the Suns would ever admit they were trying to trade Amare before it actually happened.

There is only one place that I actually see KG fitting in and putting himself in a postion to actually win a le......

And we all know the Spurs aren't paying his high dollar contract.

That aside, I certainly never could see how anyone could figure KG would fit in with the run n gun offense that Phoenix is in love with. It just never made any sense to me and that's one reason I was dubious about this "so called deal" ever going down.

not a huge shocker

Yawn to the Suns fans.

Just like game 5 when your supposed MVP, your Mr. Fade Marion, and your supposed 6th man of the year (what a joke Barbosa was for that) had a big lead and along with their over-rated coach choked it away - when fittingly Bruce Bowen slammed the door on the whiny Suns and their coach. Then in game 6 a full strength Suns team got hammered by the Spurs missing a key veteran.

With the internal dissention and all these trade rumors the Suns must be thinking internally - CAN WE PLEASE, PLEASE GET SOMETHING TO BEAT "OUR DADDY (look at Friggin lopsided to the Spurs 3 season the head to head record)" i.e. Mr. Duncan and THE SPURS and the answer is sadly no for you guys!

Lots more upcoming playoff misery ahead Suns fans!

I side with your take.
The thing I came up with was, for lack of finding a better description at the time, I saw the Suns as a Frankenstein, parts put together where it's total was less than the sum of it's parts.
But your take is more colorful and expressive!

“They do a great job of their system and staying true to form,
making big plays in big moments,” Suns coach Mike D'Antoni
told reporters in Phoenix on Thursday. “That's what we're
trying to get. Mental toughness, being lucky, I don't know
what it is.”

The Spurs, D”Antoni added, just seem to “believe a little bit
more.”
“All the time,” he said.
