Amare Trade to Detroit, What do you think?

http://games.espn.go.com/nba/features/traderesult?...

since many were upset with my former trade...

I came up with a more reasonable trade that is very possible..

Detroit gets a scoring PF, a beast like player..

Phoenix get a 3pt Shooting PF/C and a great energy builder.. something the phoenix team lacks, and someone to attract attendance..

    That's not bad! In fact, I think this is the first trade from that trade machine thing -- that at least sounds very plausible.

    Detroit needs to shake things up, they're getting stagnate and this looks like a good move for them.

    Phoenix on the other hand basically gets Afflalo (who's a promising guard that can maybe learn under and replace Steve Nash) and a big who plays defense. Phoenix also has a history of taking veterans just before they're ready to retire (Charles Barkley, Kevin Johnson, AC Green, etc...) If Wallace doesn't work out they can waive him, if he does they can extend his contract. I like that.

    The only thing I can think of that could be an issue is "are they getting enough for Stoudemire"? If they're building towards the future, maybe they'd want a more long term big man (ala Amir Johnson).

    I don't know, your trade is reasonable and something that could actually be considered. But the issue is where does Phoenix want to go? My guess, they probably want to be like Portland (Really young with some success)

    There wouldnt be the thank you to paintings this one out. If Im Phoenix I dont desire Wallace or Hamilton. You dont desire Wallace via actuality he's not having a competent 3 hundred and sixty 5 days because of the fact this is and he won't help your rebounding via actuality he maintains to be around the three pt line too lots. And the Suns have already got sufficient scorers so as that they wouldnt desire Hamilton. the only participant i'd like on the Pistons roster is Prince. And he's not solid sufficient to commerce heads up for Stat. so as that they had would desire to incorporate Prince and yet yet another participant which I doubt they had do. So this commerce would by potential of no potential be worked out.

  • Sheed would be a better fit for Phoenix. He plays way better defense than Stat. It would be even nicer if you were able to get Rip added to trade!
