@MySportsLegion: Rumor: Knicks/Hawks talking Iman Shumpert and Amare Stoudemire for Josh Smith and pieces. (via @AlexKennedyNBA)


You have to believe the Knicks try to pull this trade so they can sign Cp3 in the offseason

Why the frick would Atlanta take Amare's contract after finally shedding themselves of Joe Johnson's?

The Hawks don't want to give J-Smoove max money but trade for Amare, his bad knees and his max contract? Can't see it

I was thinking that, but maybe they think Amare can bring in a guy like Cp3 or Dhoward, like he did for NY

Josh needs to stay in ATL.
The Hawks need him.
J-Smoove and Horford together are strong.

If they get eliminated in the second round and has a chance to join a team like NY I think he will sign with them. Plus he will have a better chance to win a championship with Melo and TC than he will with Blake

I thought Amares shite knees would stop anyone from wanting him but I read somewhere that some cap and/or cash strapped team might take him bc most teams have insurance policies to help cover a players salary if an injury is severe enough

No idea if there is any veracity to that claim but if true maybe ATL figures they can avoid paying Smith and mitigate a large chunk of Amares contract.

I don't get this move at all. CP3 isn't leaving LAC...

He'll toy with them over the summer to get a big contract, but hes not gonna leave them with all the talent there.

He might leave for New York. Dont forget Chris Paul saying he wanted to play with CArmelo at his wedding.

This is one of the reasons why I think this can happen. If he loved LA so much how come he hasn't signed for max deal yet. Cause we all know LA can offer him the most money.
