Amare/Sheed

[Wilfredo Ledezma]

KG and Perkins work well together because Perkins is a banger and KG a jump shooter.

spot on, I love Dyess to death, but ever since his injuries, he's almost completely a finesse player, most of his shots come on mid-range's and if we had somebody to compliment him inside, it would be a beautiful watch

Sheed & Max for Amare?

Opens up PT for Amir, too.

Completely finesse offensive player. Dude hussles out rebounds and stands his group defensively in the post.

i don't think the Suns would do it unless they get a scoring wing (which is why I did the 3 way with the Clippers). You may be able to do a 3 way with the Bucks as well (Redd is being shopped).

Langlois: There were rumblings before Phoenix traded Shawn Marion for Shaquille O’Neal that the Suns were preparing to come to Dumars with a Stoudemire-for-Wallace deal. I was skeptical at the time, but when I saw them do the risky O’Neal deal, I believe they would have made that trade. Steve Kerr was convinced the Suns were too weak defensively in the middle. I wonder if he would have rather had Wallace than O’Neal.

Amare for Sheed is the most logical deal in the world. Both teams increase their window for a championship.

What about Sheed/RIP/#29 for Amare/Barbosa/#15?

Joe gets his versitle backcourt with a Billups/Barbosa/Stuckey 3 headed monster.

If you thought Chauncey's defense is degrading, just wait until you see the defense (or lack their of) Barbosa is going to give you...

I love Leandro's speed and his scoring ability, but he's not worth losing Rip for, I would give them Chauncey instead, and keep Rip & Stuckey...


C- Amare/#15 pick/Samb
PF- Dyess/Maxiell/Amir
SF- Prince/MLE
SG- Hamilton/Afflalo
PG- Stuckey/Barbosa

I figured the Suns wouldn't be interested in a Nash/Billups backcourt. Maybe they are, I don't know.

[slydiggity]

^LOL. That's why I said a 3 way deal. The Suns could use a better wing though. What about sending Billups to the Clippers and Maggs to the Suns?

Sheed (13.68 mil) to Suns
Billups (11.05 mil) to Clipps
Afflalo (1.01 mil) to Clipps

Maggs (8.4) to Suns
Knight (2.0) to Pistons

Amare (15.07) to Pistons
Bell (6.0) to Pistons

Clippers send #7 to Suns, the Suns send #15 to Clippers.

Pistons
PG Stuckey/Knight
SG RIP/Bell
SF Tay/Bell
PF Dyess/Max
C Amare/Amir

Suns
PG Nash/Barbosa
SG Maggs/Barbosa
SF Hill/Maggs
PF Sheed/Diaw
C Shaq/Sheed

Clippers
PG Billups/Livingston/Smush
SG Mobely/AA
SF Thorton/TT
PF Brand/TT
C Kamen/Fazekus

We can draft a backup to Tay or a PG. I'd probably bring back Dixon as my third PG and draft a scoring wing to replace Bell soon. Then grab a backup PG next year when Knight is gone.

I almost hate to admit it... but I do like that trade... assuming it all fits. but why ya gotta do Chauncey like that? We can't just use and abuse like that by sending him to the NBA Pergatory. NOW... if we pulled Brand out of there... then fine send anyone in there... but Billups? He's been too good to us to send him to a non-playoff team like that. LOL!
