Answer 1

What up NBA Blazer,

The deal does not make sense because Shaq's contract expires in 2 years whereas- A.I.'s contract is expiring- so the Nuggets would be better served to keep A.I. and let his contract expire at the end of the year.

Also i think that the West has some teams with some tough frontlines- and Amare is not a great defender... Brian Skinner would not be able to play starter-like minutes- the move i think actually makes Phoenix worse...

And the Nuggets i think take a step back too- although they don't seem to be going anywhere- just waiting for the lottery.

Answer 2

WTF denver is screwed

o yeah and da suns with dat line up could just go all da way

whats up wit all da dumb trades goin on lately

Answer 3

I like it, make Melo the team leader again, hope Shaq retires after one season. AI to Suns will take the ball decisions out of his hands w/ Nash running point. AI gets to avoid a lot of Doubles. Good for both teams

As a Rocket fan I like this better.

Answer 4

this trade isn't good for either team (well maybe the nuggets).

the suns don't need AI and chucky atkins when they have nash.  they need bell to knock down 3's.  they need hill for leadership and 20 or so minutes a night.  they need shaq to take on the other bigs of the west.  they didn't just trade marion for shaq, only do trade shaq bell, hill for A.I, atkins and 2 randoms

the nuggets wouldn't mind losing A.I since that gives melo more touches. they also get shaq to fill the marcus camby void, yet that doesn't really suit their style of up and down play.  bell and hill would fit though

Answer 5

no nash and iverson won't work out

Answer 6

I thought Denver was getting rid of cap, Allen Iverson is an expiring contract and Shaq has two Years left.

Answer 7

Skinner?

h**l nah

Answer 8

this trade looks decent

denver is looking to get rid of cap space and shaq's out in 2 years. phx gets another option in iverson. i could iverson putting the team ahead of him for a title. phx could definitely win it all.

as for denver, they may decline but since they are goin nowhere, they may accept. plus they get 2 key veterans in bell and hill.

Answer 9

one thing... you forgot to mention raja bell and grant hill. they're pretty key guys in phoenix
