Report: Knicks offer Stoudemire for Howard
This is the second time that Stoudemire has been reported to be a piece in trade talks. There were earlier reports that he was offered to New Orleans for Chris Paul. It certainly appears that Stoudemire is available.
http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/01/06/video-report-knicks-willing-to-trade-stoudemire-to-rent-howard/
The Knicks have opened talks that would send Amare Stoudemire to Orlando in a swap to rent Dwight Howard, reports Donny Marshall — former NBA player and current CSNNE reporter — on NBC SportsTalk Thursday. In the video above the talk of the trade starts at the 3:30 mark.
There are a whole lot of questions around this one. Starting with, the Knicks are not one of the teams on Howard’s list where he said he would sign an extension (Nets, Lakers, Mavericks and Magic). If they get him, the Knicks would essentially risk just renting him because Howard could opt out at the end of the season and leave with the Knicks getting no compensation. Clearly, if they got him they think they could get him to change his mind and sign long term.

lol so they would have dwight AND Chandler in the post?
Knicks are a hopeless team.
Atheist for Tim Tebow!
I don't think Orlando would do this
They need young talent, not a pirate.
Gotta love the haterz. Keep that hate a comin'

Maybe Shumpert or Fields as well
D’Antoni is thinking about benching Fields for Shumpert for some reason.
Might as well totally deplete there roster.
Knicks have no clue. They think getting big (“bigger” names) will help solve their problems. Isiah 2.0….when they aren’t really addressing any of their issues (i.e. need a PG). Having said that, if they have both Howard and Chandler not too many people are going to dunk on the Knicks.
Careful what you wish for STAT
“I’ve already talked to MElo and he’s coming”
ah he’s going to NYK alright, then they’ll ship your @ss out
Release the Tebow!
calm down, just a rumor
Yes, I am a Giants fan. Now that we got that out of the way....
IMPEACH DOLAN!!!!
The Big Boy Cometh....Team Jacobs
Marines say Oorah; BBVer's say SUAMBP! say it with me - Suuaahmbp!!!!
I feel bad for STAT.
He got to choose where he landed with free agency and now he has to take the backseat. they would have to include more than just STAT to get this done though.
that ALMOST happened
NY really needs to get their act together or run the risk of disappointing Spike Lee…

Trading Amare is like trading a bad contract
The Knicks would get out of his contract, and that trade would do them a favor.
I wouldn’t be happy getting STAT as an Orlando fan. NJ at least ha draft picks which would be worth more than STAT.
I think he ends up in LA, but to be honest, the way Bynum & Gasol are playing, I would rather have those 2 than Howard.

STAT's contract is NOT insurable. I don't think Orlando would risk that deal ...

We have so many assets
I’m still surprised that Masai and Josh aren’t looking into it more…
Atheist for Tim Tebow!
They could be
That’s the thing. They run a real tight ship over there.
They don’t like leaks. The Melo deal with New Jersey was put on the kibosh at least twice last season because Josh and Masai got so pissed about the leaks. Notice there was very little news coming out of NY, who Denver eventually delt with.
Trust me: I have a sneaking sense that Denver is going to be a different team after the trade deadline or sometime before. Almost has me a little worried, as I like this team as it.
"Rollin' in the club / HAPPY MEAL"
I think Wilson Chandler could go to Orlando for picks
As they will eventually rebuild once they trade Dwight.
If we could somehow attach Bird that would be good.
I trust Masai with whatever he does, the Poppovich of GMs, the man will take care of business. When everyone gave Nene a 10% chance of returning to Denver, Ujiri made it 100%.

I'm beginning to think he meant emotionally.
referring to Chauncey, and maybe even a little to AC. In that way, he wasn’t lying.
"All you fuckers who think we won't be good anymore, fuck you" - GK
Afflalo is Boss.
And screw up the chemistry of the NYK??
The Knicks are Melo’s team.. Bring in Howard would make it Howards team and what would they do with Chandler..make a PG out of him?.. Players to the Knicks are commodities.. they shipped Chauncey off very unceremoniously and now looking to trade Stoudemire? Maybe Melo end up in Toronto at this rate.
