Knicks · Just thinking: Stoudemire to Toronto (page 2)
How could you take in your 2 most hated rivals ECF game and on top of that look like a complete douche. 
Nice Star of David chain, you dickface!

I swear, the moment a player comes to NY, we don't want him anymore and want to trade him for below his value. We are not getting good value for Amar'e, so let's just keep him. Amar'e + Melo + Tyson + Lin is our best option at making a playoff run, let's just go with the hand we have.
I don't think we can trade Amare either but nor am I happy with a guy making $20M to put up 18 pts - 8 rebounds a game. I criticize Melo for not playing to his contract expectations and I criticize Amare just the same. In the NBA because of the salary cap you have to make every payroll dollar count. Currently 60% of our cap is tied up on two players who clearly are not able to justify that value. This is why you keep seeing trade proposals.
I hear you, but do you think anyone on this board is going to be happy with Andrea Bargnani?

I know Gallo lovers would pick up right where they left off.

Nice try. The answer is no. This guy would get torn apart here if we traded Amar'e for him.

Just like Melo is getting torn apart for being traded for Gallo right.
