Source: Amare Doesn't Want To Play In Cleveland

[Agent_Zero]

Amare Stoudemire to ATL needs to happen. Hawks would have no problem with dominating the ECF.

i dont blame him tho. who want to play for in Cleveland by choice? people only go there because they are trade and have to deal with it. what a piece of sh1t place that city is.

This is too good.

Um Shaq wears out his welcome everywhere...he's got beef with wade, although wade has handled it well, beef with Amare, no doubt about it it was all over the papers for those who cant read use a voice over translator. Also he had beef with nash over some TV serial idea...but nash was adult about it...clearly he was upset but mature about it. now shaq is out against dwight...

yes he wants to show he is a bad ass man but clearly he is just a one trick pony...use size for post moves...anything else...hmmm...yea guess not...

Shaq has a good dentist

[kentatm]

why would it shock anyone that a guy who has complained about his teammates taking away attention from him his whole career might not want to play with the new face of the league that would assure his second fiddle status?

Amar'e does not want to be a Pippen.

A Wade and Amare combo would be sick. imagine the Pick & Roll plays between those two.

id love to see that...

maybe a boozer and lebron combo...lol...or a bosh and lebron combo...

When asked before the All-Star game who are the players that he would most want as teammates, Amar'e's first two responses were LeBron and Shaq. That is at odds with this...

But the 6-foot-10, 249-pound Stoudemire has little desire of joining LeBron James and Shaquille O'Neal on the Cavs, even if it meant bringing home an NBA championship.

I'm not saying that it is impossible that Amar'e doesn't want to play in Cleveland, but I need something a little more concrete than a random article written by a guy citing an anonymous source.

Amare doesn't want to play with Shaq if he can avoid it. To win a title, and play with Lebron, i'm sure he'd tolerate it but him saying ILL PLAY WITH SHAQ is him just being nice and not wanting to start controversy. Ask the Suns fans, that situation was nto positive. (And don't give me numbers, he bitched and whined and looked like he wanted to run out of the stadium rather than be on the floor with Shaq).

It was on TNT last night, unless I was hallucinating... Which is always a distinct possibility.

With Wade, it would be more of a Stockton/Malone co-ownership of the team b/c Wade is not the face LeBron is. (Amar'e would be Stockton, slightly less credit but still identified as half the heart and soul of the team)

LeBron would get all the credit and Amar'e would be a Pippen that never gets the credit he would deserve.

I was hallucinating...

It's cool, happens to the best of us.
