    lol very nice article. A bunch of Machiavellis. I laughed at the Stoudemire anecdote.

    Seriously, I wonder who the GM was that made the bone-headed Stoudemire call. Any guesses?

    Calling Phoenix about flippling Amare? Sounds like a McHale move.

    this sounds like a total morey move... especially with the idea that the gm believed he could get more than the suns... was probably going through the nba teams and called phoenix instead of philadelphia

    And this is how Alex Kennedy (writer of OP article) does exactly what he writes about in his article that he quotes GMs as saying they don't like. This is meaningless news about something that may or may not happen, from a sauce who is guessing. But it gets you to follow Kennedy on this busy day...it's the best news he has.



    Kid is known to make stuff up, too. But even if true a GM gave him a guess, it's noise like the article says.
