    Gambo620 New developments - Houston Rockets interested in Amare Stoudemire. Would likely be a sign and trade with Luis Scola and Battier if it happens

    Guy is a Sports Radio Host in PHX and was pretty much right on with the Amar'e stuff at the deadline last year...

    I could see it. Amar'e's lack of defense would be a bit less important with Yao back but I still don't like it at all. His finishing at the rim and his face up game really intrigue me, though.

    I could imagine a STAT SnT. Bud would likely be 'demanded'. Hill, too. Add SB31 as likely and Scola's contract might be requisite, but I don't see it included.

    Interesting. The proposed S n' T is exactly the same one that fell through on the trade deadline. Except, Amare is actually going to be on multi-year contract and will take his physical before he is traded to us.

    I feel really bad for Luis though.

    I'd imagine PHX prefer getting some younger pieces back instead of 30-year-old Battier and Scpla... maybe the two Arizona boys?

    I think its unlikely, Amare would probably choose to play with Lebron, Wade, or Joe Johnson.

    UPDATE - I sent the guy a tweet about his sources and this is his response....

    Gambo620 @LEXthePEX sources 100% legit, but doesn't mean it will happen. Just that Rockets want in on chance

    Amare is the opposite of Bosh.

    He's possibly Plan C, not even B. But could be.

    We're gonna have a big man rotation of Yao-Bosh-Stoudemire-Scola-Hill-Patterson-Hayes-Andersen-Johnson!

    I don't want this guy on the Rockets, I just don't like the way he plays and his attitude.
