I don't think he is. Worst case possible is the Mavs losing Gooden as the filler

Barea should be our future PG, man I dont know why more people believe this but the dude is sick! He attacks the paint, distributes, and plays good defense. WTF is wrong with him?

Trust me I'm as big of JJB fan is there is. Since he made the team I've been cheering for. But I mean Beaubois' talent and skill is orgasmic

The Plain Dealer is reporting the Cleveland Cavaliers are in negotiations to acquire Suns All-Star forward Amare Stoudemire.

The Mavericks appear to have agreed on the major points of a trade that will send Josh Howard, Drew Gooden, Quinton Ross and James Singleton to Washington for Caron Butler, Brendan Haywood and DeShawn Stevenson.

The deal is not completely done, but a source said that the pieces of the trade have been tentatively agreed upon.

The trade would also require league approval, which could take until after All-Star Weekend.

Howard's contract for 10-11 is a team option, which could yield a payroll savings of $11 million for the Wizards.

Waiting for league approval..

The Cavaliers are debating whether they should try to acquire Amare Stoudemire from the Suns or Antawn Jamison from the Wizards.

"Cavs front office internally debating merits of trading for Amar'e Stoudemire vs Antawn Jamison. Not much on line --only franchise's future," Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports wrote on his Twitter page.

I kind of question the Amare thing now because Adam Wojnarowski is a dope.

 

[Mexi]

i think the cavs are getting murphy
i dont think they should get anyone though.
why mess things up? they are doing just fine

 

[elcheato]

Because adding Amare would pretty much guarantee LeBron would resign with us.

 

[Mexi]

it's not a guarantee already?

Only if Amare stays with them..

The Cavaliers and Suns are getting close to a trade that would send All-Star forward Amare Stoudemire to Cleveland, sources told ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard.

Cleveland would send Zydrunas Ilgauskas and forward J.J. Hickson to Phoenix for Stoudemire.

While the Cavaliers remain in talks with other teams, sources indicate that Cleveland has settled on Stoudemire as their main target.

If Amare and Shaq couldn't work in Phoenix how are they going to work in Cleveland? lol

 

[elcheato]

Because we have someone on our team named LeBron and Amare hated that coach that the Suns had before they hired Alvin Gentry which had some to do with it. Hickson worked with Shaq, and Amare is basically a more refined version of Hickson with a jump shot.

Anyway, this would be sick.. Just hoping if this gets done that both LeBron and Amare sign extensions before the season ends. This move would be about building a possible dynasty...

But this still might not happen. It was reported by Chris Broussard and he use to work for the Cleveland Plain Dealer and likes the Cavs.

You really think LeBron would re-sign if they <Censored> up again this year?

 

[elcheato]

He would give anything to go to the great Knicks and Nets.

RealGM Update: According to a Tweet by Brian Windhorst, Stoudemire won't be dealt on All-Star Sunday. The Cavaliers are hoping to receive a 'yes or no' from the Suns early this week.

Notice how I never said that he would come here. LeBron is getting tired of Mike Brown aka "Grimace" ruining his legacy by choking to inferior teams.

 

[RipCity32]

I've heard Rip for Dampier is a possibility..

If so, seriously <Censored> Dumars.

Weren't Piston fans calling this guy a genius just a year or two ago?
