What Happens If Amare Is Traded During All-Star?

The question is now when, not if, Amare Stoudemire is going to be traded, but what happens if STAT is traded during All-Star Weekend?

To my knowledge, there has never been a trade during All-Star, but with every GM in Phoenix for the long weekend, chances are they are stopping by the Kerr residence to discuss possible scenarios. These are my questions and concerns: Read More »

Channing Frye’s Guide To Phoenix

As everyone has begun to ascend on Phoenix for All-Star Weekend today, I figured now was the perfect time to put y’all in the know. When the Blazers were in town a couple weeks ago, I got up with Phoenix native Channing Frye to chat with him about All-Star Weekend past and present, and all his favorite spots in the Valley of the Sun.

Dime: What’s All-Star Weekend going to be like in Phoenix? Channing Frye: It’s gonna be bananas. Phoenix is one of those underestimated cities and the thing is, people don’t understand that with All-Star being in Phoenix, people from Vegas are going to drive down, people from Texas can drive over, people from California can pop in. It’s just going to be a huge influx of people and we’ve had the All-Star Game before, so we’re prepared for it. Read More »

(Almost) Daily Fantasy – 2-12-09

MVP of the night goes to…. Nate Robinson? Yup. “Kryptonite,” as Nate prefers to be called, had an absurd line subbing in for Chris Duhon last night. Nate went for 33 points, 15 assists, 9 boards, and 5 steals. My goodness I love overtime! Five more minutes of stats? Huge. I’m literally about to jump on a plane to Phoenix, but here are some quick fantasy hits for the road.

T-Mac – Two big words – Microfracture surgery. That’s what is being discussed right now for McGrady. If it happens, and if you read T-Mac’s quotes it seems like he kind of wants it to happen to justify to everyone that he really is hurt, McGrady would be gonzo for at least the season. Read More »

T-Mac Out for Season?

There is no end in sight for Tracy McGrady‘s trip to the bench. T-Mac sat out yesterday against Sacramento for “precautionary reasons.” He says that his surgically repaired left knee is no better than it was before the procedure, and that he is still in serious pain.
