Title: Do you think Amare Stoudemire will end upon the Lakers?
Post by: GangstaBoogy on February 06, 2009, 10:23:43 AM
According to realgm and yahoo sports he's on the trading block (along with everyone except Steve Nash...which I don't get). But last year when Bynum went down we pulled off a miracle trade for an All-Star big...anyone think iron will strike twice?

are you serious? no way in hell the lakers will be trading for stoudamire. why would the lakers trade for anyone for that matter? the lakers have the best record in the league and have just came away with a huge win from boston, not only did they beat boston but they beat boston away from home and without bynum. this was a huge physcological break through for the lakers, the celtics mark my words will be hurt mentally from that defeat especially since the lakers have proved they can win big without bynum.

the lakers are sitting strong and seem to have good chemistry at the moement theres no way in hell id be tampering with that if i were a GM. In this case less is definatley more. the lakers might add a big guy to play that 10min spot but thats all they will be doing and thats all they need to do.

no chance of that happening. Odom for Amare is a ridiculous trade for the Suns lol. Im sure NIK will come in here and try to preach that Odom > Amare lol.  Not to mention, the Suns arent going to trade with a division rival unless it is REALLY benefiting them equally.  And yes, the Lakers need D before they need more offense.  Amare obviously will not bring any defense to a team lol

Yeah as much as I love watching Amare play, he has always been a bit of a black hole on defense.

More importantly than that though, I would never risk fucking up my team's chemistry for a move like this mid-season while we're still the best team in the league. We cannot afford to part with any of our core players right now. So unless it was like... Chris Mihm + Walton for Amare, we would be better off leaving Amare alone.

And as mentioned already, Suns aren't going to trade Amare to a division rival anyways.

Have you all seen Lamar Odom playing yesterday? He was been the "Man of the match", plus it looks like he has something to prove to KG & Co.
Trading him now, in the middle of the season, would be CRIMINAL.

That's nice. But being that Amare is consistent at NOT playing defense and yet still trying to be the man of his team, I think I'd try to go with the inconsistent one.

you guys preaching we need D is ridiculous. :loco:

when you bring a dominate force & explosive player like Amare, his AVERAGE (STOP HATIN) defense would be more than enough.

i mean his presence alone would automatically bring a ring to LA.

but na, lets just keep thinking that Bynum's replacement > Amare. ::)

Wow. Sorry but that is not how it works. LeBron or Dwight Howard's presence would automatically bring a ring to LA. Amare is not in that league and probably never will be. If a true superstar like Dwight or CP3 was put on the trading block, we would hear about a gazillion teams throwing trade offers by now. So far, the only trade offer we heard was SUNS asking Miami if they wanted Amare. And Miami rejected it lol. There's a reason these teams don't want him.

And by "Bynum's replacement," I hope you mean Powell or Mihm or something, because Odom is like the furthest thing from Bynum's replacement. If you did mean Odom, you need to actually watch more Laker games before commenting on their team.

^i didnt mean anyone in particular; just whoever started in his place.

Amare is better than anyone you could start for him, so your not making much sense lol.

if you really believe that with whoever is starting at PF now (name anyone you want lol) is better than Amare your just nuts.

he is better offensivly than Bynum and Gasol lmao.

his defense (which ill say again is average; but i know Laker fans try to point out small things to attempt to prove a point) would be enough coming with his EXPLOSIVE offense to win a ring EASILY for LA.

He is. But he grabs more rebounds per 48 minutes than Amare (11.2 vs 10.5), he still averages 10 points per game in 27 minutes (that means 17 points per 48 minutes) which is pretty nice, he can play SF and point forward if necessary AND, the most important thing, he can defend on Kevin Garnett and show him how a bitch he is by spitting it on his face. Find me a better replacement and i'll agree to trade him. But Amare can't do shit against Kevin. And we already have the best offensive team of the NBA by far, so a scorer is not what we need. Odom can make 20 points in basically 2 quarters against Kevin too. He just did it.

I don't think you get it man. I'm not saying anyone in particular is better than Amare. As a matter of fact, Amare has higher player value than probably ANY of the Lakers not named Kobe. But it's not about individuals, it's about the fact that we already have a set team. We already have a set system. And we already have a set triangle offense that works perfectly with the current players we have.

If we were to blow our team up and start from scratch, then yeah I would want Amare. But there's a HUGE difference between that scenario and the scenario we're in now. There are very few big men who could initiate our offense. It just so happens that we're lucky enough to have two of them in Odom and Gasol (KG and Marcus Camby would be some other ones). Giving them away would be absolutely retarded, and while there are certain players who you could make exceptions for, like Dwight Howard, LeBron, Tim Duncan, etc., Amare is not even close to being in that same class.

Again, it's not about individual player value, it's about how well their game would mesh with the team. Allen Iverson is sicker than D-Fish. But that sure as hell doesn't mean I'd ever want to give up a core player to get him.

^i get that, but Amare is better offensivly.

he would fit, he can knock down the mid range shot 10 times better than Bynum & can score in close (not by a little flip shot), by slamming one down up against anyone.

he could be the answer, but our argument is actually pretty dumb lol.

i mean, this isnt going to happen anyway. :P

Amare is a more prominent offensive force than Bynum, yes. But the fact is there's a lot of things that Bynum does that Amare doesn't. I'll just throw out one of many simple examples: being a massive 7 footer 285 lb body who can clog up the lanes.

If Phoenix was willing to do a Mihm + Sun Yue + Walton deal or something, then hell yeah I'd take it. But the bottomline is that if we lost any of our CORE players, Amare's game simply wouldn't fill those roles. While you can argue that Amare's scoring can more than make up for that (and I'm assuming that's what your argument is), when it's all said and done, it just isn't worth the risk to find out, not for a player like Amare.

You're right about one thing though. This does have no chance of ever happening lol.

Lakers need D and toughness down in the post. We need a healthy Bynum. Gasol's skill and basketball IQ and Bynum's hustle and toughness to match Perkins is the key to winning the title. Amare is not in that mold. He can play 3 I guess, but honestly that's not his position and on the Lakers his a bench player to who comes in the game to make some nice dunks, get the crowd energized change the pace. His too over paid to be that, and I think he wouldn't like that at all. Amare would be much happier in a place like Chicago or hell, New York should give him a look, Portland would be ideal for him. Amare would be nice if we were starting Chris Mihms or Kwame Brown, then I'd say pull the trigger. But if we are getting Bynum back by playoffs, then lets ride this season out as is.

I'd probably have a mixed reaction. I like the upgrade in talent at pf (at least on the offensive end), but he is not as complimentary to the starting unit as Aldridge and lately has a rep as a cancer and a prima donna so there could be issues with chemistry. I guess I wouldn't be mad about it, but I wouldn't be jumping out of my seat either.

i hope he shows up & watch your reaction change (thats a given lmao).

but yeah, maybe not "technically" which you think is the entire game. "good post game & moves".

the game of the basketball is getting the ball in the hoop & Amare power driving & slamming it over other big men is more efficient than either of the Laker big men using there "Hall of Fame caliber post game"; most big men for that matter.

I absolutely think he's better than Gasol. You would too if they were traded for each other tomorrow. And while he may not be a better center than Bynum, I think he is definitely a better and more versatile big than Bynum.

ill give Gasol the IQ easily & the post game & defense.

but Amare's presence counts for more than that.

he is just a dominate force that is not easy to stop & that is a game changer.

Yeah Amare at times forces the issue a little bit too much. Has not learned yet how to make himself a factor in games by doing things other than scoring. Almost like he looks at it like what for. You see a BIG difference in LeBron's game this year because of his focus more on D. Amare has showed though when he wants to D up he holds his own.

Take the Lakervision goggles off, please...Gasol is good but he is NOT that damn good. KG is one of the best PFs the game has ever seen and Duncan is THE best PF the game has ever seen. I'll give you Bosh but even that feels like a reach to me. Amare is AT LEAST as good as Bosh and probably a little better.

I definitely think Gasol is better than Amare

I've been Gasol's biggest critic but he has shown that he grew some nuts over the summer

he's been incredibly consistent this year and lately has been on a tear putting up 29 PTS 14 REB since Bynum went down

Amare does not have the all around assets that Gasol can bring to a team

Now please STOP talking about trading Lamar. NO WAY.
I'm afraid Bynum got injured, but i'm saying since the start of the season the Lakers should have started Odom as the PF.
And he's proving me i was right.

P.S. Gasol >>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Amare.

Damn, dude...i used to respect your basketball opinion. LOL. you're WAY off, son. Gasol IS that good. He's having a better season than KG, for sure, and is right up there with Duncan this year, how can you not see that?...Also, Bosh is MUCH better than Amare, as well. Please stick to your analysis of your own team.

Bosh - choke artist, Gasol - soft, Amare - soft D. They all have flaws, its just about what you prefer really. Personally I'll take soft D over choke artist and just plain soft. Quit acting like the only reason your so high on Pau isn't because he's a Laker. You defend every laker til the bitter end, at which point you proceed to badmouth them (Shaq anyone?). You are absolutely insance to put Pau in the same class as KG and Duncan. Even Laker fans will tell you that.

comments like "Gasol is up there with Duncan, KG..." is exactly what makes you look like a complete fool NIK lol

yeah, theres been a lot of talk about Gasol being one of the best PFs of all time...LOLOLOL. OMG...that is easily one of the dumbest comments I've ever heard.

With your logic, Ron Harper is up there with Kobe  :stupid: :stupid: :stupid:

Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett are absolutely living legends, and when they'll retire, they'll be considered, along with Karl Malone, the best PF's to ever play this game. No doubt. But if that NIK's statement means that that RIGHT NOW Gasol can play at the same level if not better than the other two for a match or a serie of matches i do agree with him.

P.S. Out of curiosity, they just named Gasol the Western Conference Player of the Week.

because we have a difference in opinon?

so basically you dont take anyone's shit anymore seriously? ::)

ANYWAY, i feel Bosh is in the right place on my list.

KG is pretty close to Bosh though overall.

Amare's D is what is keeping him 2nd to last there.
