My fears have been realized! Some people in the Bulls organization see how well Thomas and Noah have played and have some reservations about Thomas, Noah and a #1 for Amare!

DO THE DEAL! NOW! While people think Thomas is good!

The deal won't happen now because Phoenix fired Porter. Gentry supposedly is bringing back the 7 seconds or less style, so now they won't get rid of Amare.

Now they're talking Bosh. Again, I'm offering livery services to any Bulls player Paxson wants to include in such a deal.

Yes, other than Rose, ship out the whole lot of 'em.

So would you rather have Amare or Bosh?

I am far from an NBA expert, but I think Amare would be a better fit, Bosh seems soft.

Their numbers are very similar. Bosh is 2 years younger.

Bosh didn't have a devastating knee injury and hasn't yet reached his potential in my opinion.

Amare is a dominant player who reached his potential in a system that wins games but not championships in my opinion.

So the answer is either in a heart beat.

I think Amare is better right now.
I think Bosh could be better for the next 5-10 years.

I'll be really happy either way and I don't think either one is a bad option. Trades like this are always a roll of the dice.

I don't think the difference between getting Amare and Bosh will be that big as long as they get one of them.

I'd prefer Bosh because of the age and knees, but either way I'm happy and they'll still need to get better on defense with another move or two in the offseason.
