Amare retires as a Knick???

[Black Adam]

He had a date the other night ya know!

Was her last name PALMer...?

Was her last name PALMer...?

Not sure it was a "her"!

But hey, who are we to judge?

 

[Arizona_Sting]

Local media says Amare wanted a 1 year deal from PHX to end his career as a Sun and the FO was not interested and it rubbed Amare the wrong way so he went and retired with the Knicks.

NY fans were probably just like uhmmm… ok?


Childish move on his part, everyone knows he's a Sun. Also, fuck Rob Sarver.

I am no Knick fan but I think you are missing the larger picture here. He retires as a Knick and he gets to be part of the New York media market. He can try yo ingratiate himself into the fanbase here. He is fairly popular here.

He goes back to Phoenix and he is, at best, selling cars.

It's not like the guy is some big Hall of Famer.

This whole post is cringe worthy.

 

[trojanfan12]

Thought he retired like 5 years ago.

This whole post is cringe worthy.

Why? I wasn't insulting Phoenix.

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

This whole post is cringe worthy.

Yet every bit is true

 

[Shaqdaddy11]

I'm not sure anyone is "riled up".

You certainly are.

Breath sweetheart, breath!

 

[flyerhawk]

What? Integrate himself into the fanbase? What? Car salesman? What?

To be clear, I meant do TV commercials for car dealerships.

 

[Robotech]

He'll be best remembered as a Sun for sure.

Amar'e: Suns not receptive to retirement idea

 

[Lance Armstrong]

I don't care who he signs with, to me he'll always be a sun, aka the spurs punching bag.

Lol. You mean the era in Spurs history when Robert Horry body checks people into the first row, Bruce Bowen "accidentally" knees people in the nuts multiple times a game, and Ginobili spent more time on his back sliding across the court while flailing his arms and complaining to the refs than he did actually playing the sport of basketball?

Yeah reading that made me want to paintball Robert Sarver and Ryan McDonough in the gonads.

Suprisingly, i was kinda upset for Phoenix when that happened, not to mention moldy Dave and the League office's ruling afterwards. Thought they pretty much handed the Spurs the series at that point...

Wait, need a refresher of what happened in the 2010 playoffs?

You know, the year we SWEPT you out of the postseason?

Amar’e Stoudemire Announces Retirement | New York Knicks



What a numbskull he is...This has got to be a slap in the face for the Suns and their fans for the fact he signed a one-day contract with the Knicks before retiring.

@Arizona_Sting @The Derski Thoughts?

I don't think so this time. I think he needed to be a signed player in order to submit his retirement papers and New York Knicks gave him the contract only to do that - not about the Suns or his association with them. The way I understood - it was strictly a business decision.

The Suns weren't going to give him that contract, the Knicks were. And as he didn't want to retire as a member of the Heat his options were fairly limited.
