Amar’e Stoudemire to Train With Hakeem Olajuwon Again This Summer

I would have refused if I were Dream, but the man gotta get paid.

It's an easy $40K (or at least I think it's 40K) to teach someone the same things over and over again as you did before.

 

Its 50k

 

My son got a chance to meet Amare last summer while he was training in Houston. Seemed like a really good guy.

 

If dream could train Amare's knees to get better that price tag would go up.

 

I like the fact that Amare is actually trying to get better as a player even with the injuries. Much Respect.

 

Wow, why does Amare train? He can't even get into court.

 

For the Love of the game my boy.

 

I think a deal with Parsons/Trob/Dmo could land us Amare.

 

definitely, but that's terrible for us

 

Maybe Amare should retire and be a trainer himself.

 

it's funny how players fall apart once they leave phoenix

 

This. TBH, I don't know why Amare wants to work on his low post game, it's a nice wrinkle to have but then again Amare's already one of the best PNR and mid-range big men in the NBA, if anyone needs low post tutoring it's actually Chandler.

If it weren't for his ridiculous contract I'd love to have him on the squad, him+Asik>DH IMHO.

 

I'd take Amare on the Rockets.

 

Well whenever you can get a guy past his prime who doesn't rebound or play defense, whose knees are so bad his contract can't be insured, who's missed 70+ games the last two seasons and is owed over $45MM over the next two seasons, you have to do it.

 

He should spend that money to going to germany and getting that blood treatment.

 

yao is done, his peer sun tzu is half done

 

I wonder if he would give Howard a discount if he came to Houston ..lol

 

That worked out well for Andrew Bynum.

 

Of course that would, the Rockets get the bad end of the deal. NY would love nothing more than to screw Morey, with this deal, for all the great deals at NY's expense. It would be a detrimental hit to the Rockets to trade away those 3 for an injury-ridden, non-rebounding player that is owed millions upon millions over the next few years. If it was Amare at his prime, then there would be talks.
