<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">That shudder some die-hard Suns fans felt creeping down their spine wasn't from any change of weather. Trust us, that's a long way off yet. However, it might be the chilling effect of some comments that Amar? Stoudemire made to a reporter from SI.com that found its way to The Heat Index Operations Center. The story is all about Stoudemire going to the West Coast to work with some video game programmers, but goes into some detail about Stoudemire's affection for Los Angeles and implies that the Lakers might want to make a run at him. "I'm a businessman," Stoudemire told SI.com. "I'm going to listen, but I already know what they got to say, 'Amar?, we want to give you the max.' " Stoudemire also was asked about the possibility of making more cash from endorsements in Los Angeles, and agreed that he could, but insisted he's happy in Phoenix. So, what to make of it? We don't doubt the Lakers and others would love to make a run at the young Suns star, but we're not losing much sleep about all of this right now. The SI.com story points out that the Lakers are clearing cap space for the 2007 off-season. Unless we're getting bad information, that isn't going to help them with Stoudemire. All indications are that Stoudemire will sign a contract extension any day now. There may be some haggling over fine print, but the bottom line is, he cannot afford the risk in not signing it. The new deal would kick in after next season, so Stoudemire isn't going to be available in 2007. Now, that doesn't mean he won't have some sort of an early termination clause in his deal, but that's at least three years into it. If there is such a clause, then there's something to get nervous about if the Suns don't have some talent around Stoudemire when that day comes. Meanwhile, if you want something to wring your hands about, consider that the team's veteran players were supposed to start taking part in informal workouts after the Labor Day weekend. Only Steve Nash showed up. As of Tuesday, those workouts still hadn't begun for the veteran players. </div> Source

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting eyes only:</div><div class="quote_post">if amare comes who do you think buss would put at a higher value on? its a nobrainer!</div>It is a nobrainer: Kobe. Buss would destroy a dynasty before getting rid of Kobe. Anyways the Suns give Amare the best chance to win. And I doubt he'd be willing to play second-fiddle to Kobe Bryant who won't even boost his PPG and FG% like Steve Nash does.

However, down the line, when Amare is in his prime, the Lakers will give him the better chance of winning. Amare has not signed because he wants to see how this new Suns team works out, and if they have taken a step in the right direction. I'm sure he'll keep a close eye on how the Lakers are progressing, and a few other teams like the Knicks and Bulls. Keep in mind, Amare's next contract is going to keep him on the same team for the next 6 years. It's not going to be a matter of playing second fiddle, both Amare and Kobe would get their fair share of points. It will be about winning more than personal glory for both players. You also cannot rule out the Lakers landing a guard capable of creating easy baskets for Amare, Kobe, and the rest of the team. Highly unlikely Amare leaves Phoenix, but at least the Lakers are putting themselves in a position to obtain Amare or some other superstar in 2007.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bahir:</div><div class="quote_post">You Need To Learn How To Spell Correctly And Stop Making Idiotic Comments!!! </div> ummmm what's spelt wrong and what's idiotic about the comments? If he didn't share the ball with Shaq or Odom why would Amare be any different?
I don't know if this will work. I think Amare will be in a better situation in Phoenix, and I don't think he will want to be a the second option behind Kobe. THat's just my opinion on the whole thing. Also, Bahir what was mispelled in that post? How was it idiotic? It's called an opinion and everybody has them.
You dont use capital letters in the beginning of every word, and you dont use 4/2 !s after a sentence. Secondly, if Amare would be coming to LA, there is no way of telling what would happend. I doubt that would act towards Kobe like Shaq, and vice versa, because Amare and Shaq are two different persons with two different personalities. Furthermore, you can see that Kobe is beginning to change for the better in terms of social interaction. Also, when Amare comes to LA, if he comes, he will most likely still be without a championship, and Kobe and Phil wont have won one from now to that time. I think Phil will have one year left on his contract, and as we all know Phil can do wonderfull things to a team, and he is a coach that many players want to play for. All these are reasons for Amare wanting to come to LA.

You tell someone to learn to spell after a post in which no spelling errors were made. As if that wasn't enough, you then try to point out puntuation errors (I think) as what you originally referred to as "spelling". The funny part is that in your attempt to point out others errors, you make far worse grammatical and spelling mistakes while simply not making any sense. What exactly does this mean? <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bahir:</div><div class="quote_post">All these are reasons for Amare wanting to come to LA</div> Or this? <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bahir:</div><div class="quote_post">I doubt that would act towards Kobe like Shaq, and vice versa, because Amare and Shaq are two different persons with two different personalities.</div> LMAO How about this... <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bahir:</div><div class="quote_post">you dont use 4/2 !s after a sentence. </div> or this...... <div class="quote_poster">Quoting Bahir:</div><div class="quote_post">Secondly, if Amare would be coming to LA, there is no way of telling what would happend.</div> You making fun of anyone's grammar, spelling, or punctuation is like Madonna calling Hillary Duff a whore.
^^^^ LOL! <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"Bahir: I doubt that would act towards Kobe like Shaq, and vice versa, because Amare and Shaq are two different persons with two different personalities."</div>LOL that is the funiest sentence Ive ever saw!!!!!! OH S***! Thanks Bahir u just made my week a little brighter.
Whatever... Spelling errors doesent bother me too much, but using capital letters at the beginning of every sentence, for example, does. Even if you are from another country the "rules of writing" shouldnt be that different. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">I doubt that would act towards Kobe like Shaq, and vice versa, because Amare and Shaq are two different persons with two different personalities.</div> Forgot to write "Amare" between "that" and "would".
[quote name='Bahir']Whatever... Spelling errors doesent bother me too much, but using capital letters at the beginning of every sentence, for example, does. Even if you are from another country the "rules of writing" shouldnt be that different. I think you mean shouldn't!!! Anyway, the quickest way to ruin your career, is play with Kobe. Amare is a monster and really unselfish. The reason he is so effective is because he plays in an environment that works together and gets the most out everyones talents and strengths. I believe that by going to L.A he would become less effective, but a heck of a lot richer.
