Amar'e Safari 2015 Reboot - Fooled Thrice

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Re: Amar'e Safari: Officially The Greatest Thead in RCF HISTORY !

I love how Mannix says one thing about New York and suddenly he sucks.

All he was saying is that if T-Mac plays to level he's capable of 3-4 years ago, he could be another attractive option for a max free agent to join with. It's not as if he was blatantly stating that T-Mac + LeBron = Championship.
 
Re: Amar'e Safari: Officially The Greatest Thead in RCF HISTORY !

Yeah, some people were making Gasol seem like a scrub when he was traded to the Lakers, it seems it worked quite well....I would expect the same in Cleveland with Amare.

A moot point since we know T Mac will never play at that level again (I do feel bad for T Mac btw, he gets a roooough rap...) and even if he does, he's getting older. He'll be what, 32 by next season?
 
Re: Amar'e Safari: Officially The Greatest Thead in RCF HISTORY !

What's up with Mannx? The guy talks a million miles a minute. I see him on Frist Take and his hair's disshevled and he's sweating like a pig. Stay off the nose candy pal.


To his defense, that's what happens to hard-working reporters during the NBA trade deadline...
 
Re: Amar'e Safari: Officially The Greatest Thead in RCF HISTORY !

why is amare's nickname stat? he doesnt rebound that well and doesnt give out many assists so it cant possibly be that he is a stat stuffer, or is it?

Stoudemire i guess its not extremely clear cut but you'd think people would figure it out....

If Michael Jordan came back and played like he did 20 years ago, that would be an attractive piece for Lebron to play next to as well.

And Shaq to the Cavs...and Mo to the Cavs...

etc etc...I'm sensing a trend.

I think he'll come into New York and play well, but I don't expect it to last. He has a shaky work ethic at best, and I don't think he can keep up the supposed hard work he's put in.

Besides the real reason as already posted, IF he did have higher rebounds and assists it would be STATS. With just scoring it's STAT.

Paul Coro tweet: Actually, Phx is likely the one waiting for Clev's decision with Wash in play.
 
Re: Amar'e Safari: Officially The Greatest Thead in RCF HISTORY !

Another thing about stat's defense. Nash is the worst pg defender in the league and phx's only decent wing defender is a 212 year old g-hill. I think our wing defense will instantly make stat an average defender. Stat does like to block shots, he is a career 1.5 a game. I dont expect stat to turn into duncan in his prime, but atleast stat has the tools to be above average.
 
Re: Amar'e Safari: Officially The Greatest Thead in RCF HISTORY !

So what is Stan Van Gundy going to say to sideline reports after Amare or Jamison puts up 10pts in the first quarter?

"We arnt conrcerned about Amare Stoudemire!" Ha, I doubt it
 
Re: Amar'e Safari: Officially The Greatest Thead in RCF HISTORY !

Last time i checked, everyone said gasol couldnt defend and he was soft before he came to LA. Now he isnt a great defender in LA, but he seems to fit just fine. Talented versitile players like Lebron and Kobe find ways of making it work with other talented players like shaq, pau, and amare.

exactly. nobody on the suns plays d, not nash, hill, or stoudemire. its just something that it not important in that style of game. but amare has all the intangibles you want in a defender. If he cant/wont improve his defense, he will be sent packing this summer. If he does improve, were good to go and hopefully celebrating in mid-June.

Don't buy it. If Phoenix accepted our offer Amare would be a Cav.

It's a nickname that he gave himself. It stands for Standing Tall And Talented. It has stuck with him ever since.
