June 8, ESPN.com: rick, (ny 2 phx 2 chi): hey chris, i really enjoy your chats. is there any truth to the rumors of phx trading shawn marion to detroit for rasheed wallace and tyshaun prince. if there is truth to thayt how gets the better side of that trade? i would hate to see shawn marion leave phx!!! thanks!!!



Chris Sheridan: If Detroit was going to make a trade like that, they'd want Amare Stoudemire back, not Marion. But Amare is one of the guys on their radar this summer, and they'll part with Sheed and another piece (I think it would be Hamilton rather than Tay) if they can get a young big in return. For more on the Pistons, check my blog later today.</div>

I'd do it in a heartbeat. Would you Phoenix fans?

 

to be quick, no

 

Detroit would do it. But why the hell would Phoenix do it?

Rip and Sheed both have a ring and our hungry for another one. Rip brings you 20 points a night and Sheed can give you 12-7-1.5 but you guys would have to change your game a bit. How could you say no to that lineup? I wouldn't be suprised if they said no, but a "hell no?"

Steve Nash
Rip Hamilton
Shawn Marion
Rasheed Wallace
Kurt Thomas

 

suns would have to be on drugs to trade a young Amare for Sheed and Rip

Agreed.......Serious drug

There is NO WAY in hell I'm trading Amare. He's young, athletic, and CRAZY talented. Why would Phoenix trade him? That would be the worst decision in NBA history. Marion should be untouchable too

 

Ultimately one or the other is probably on their way out due to money. I don't think Phoenix can afford to pay them both their desired money and still have the other pieces around them.

 

no way stat leaves... the suns dont like sheeds attitude... this is a no deal

 

I don't agree with Marion being untouchable though. I think you could find a way to be better without him.

 

I'd prefer to see Amare WITH 'Sheed on the Suns, an inside/outside duo. 'Sheed's toughness and rebounding would be useful, and his 3s already fit our style.

Just today there's another rumor that the Suns want KG and are offering Amare. All summer we'll probably be hearing various Amare trade rumors, I honestly don't know why they'd want to unload him, maybe they know something about his knees that we don't. Or they may just want to save the money or dislike Amare's attitude. I have no idea what's going on!
