    Didn't he already say he didn't want to come to Houston?

    Amare has already proven he can't coexist with a big man in the middle, and he even had the best playmaker in the league to make it work. Yao is 1.5x slower than current Shaq, how would you think he would make it work here? He's just not a good fit with us until we trade Yao.

    Still..................having Amare on the market distracts teams and lowers Bosh's trade value. I like it.

    76ers might go for Amare for cap relief instead of McGrady. I don't really see how that works though for both teams though.

    There was a thread just like this one saying Amar'e is on the trading block. Someone said that Amar'e said he didn't want to come to Houston.

    I read on realgm that it looked unlikely the Raptors would trade Bosh. Dalembert says he wants to stay in Philly, Stoudemire doesn't want to come to Houston. We are running out of option fellas.

    Amare or Bosh?...

    If the Rockets could somehow construct a trade for Amare, I think I'd rather have him over Bosh anyday... Amare can't play defense, but behind Yao he would look fine....

    Most likely the Suns won't make a move. They are in the middle of the pack in the west, and there's hardly anything that can be done to move them up. Trading Amare won't do much...

    If the Suns make no move now, they'd better hope something appears on radar in the summer. The only thing that would keep Amar'e from just bolting outright would be that sixth year a sign-and-trade could net him.

    = no reason to trade for tmac.

    but pretty sure most of you know that by now.

    Mentioned below...here in the comments.
    Interesting would you take Amare/Jrich for Landry/Battier/Tmac? If Amare is willing to extend his contract.

    Probably not. Amare is a ball stopper, and he wouldn't be able to play alongside Yao.

    Yes, as in stopping the ball into the basket.
