Amare Stoudemire will opt out of the final year of his contract if he doesn't re-sign with the Phoenix Suns before the deadline at the end of this month. He is looking for a max deal for 6 years that would be worth $127 million.
Maybe I am the only one, but I don't think I would give that to him. He doesn't play defense, he's not that long removed from microfracture and retina surgery, and there are really only a couple players I would give that deal to (Lebron, Wade, Howard, Durant, Kobe).
Still, this puts the Suns in a tough spot. They really can't afford to lose him, but at the same time they could roll the dice and try to land other big free agents if he was to leave. I have a weird feeling that we have seen Amare's last game in a Suns' uniform.
