Biedriņš uz Fīniksu?
Nacionālās Basketbola asociācijas (NBA) klubi Goldensteitas "Warriors" un Fīniksas "Suns" ir apsprieduši iespējamo darījumu, kurā galvenie iesaistītie spēlētāji būtu Andris Biedriņš un Amārs Stadamairs.
Kā vēsta "Yahoo", tad Fīniksas "Suns" un Goldensteitas "Warriors" ir apsprieduši iespējamo spēlētāju maiņu, kuras rezultātā "Warriors" sastāvam pievienotos spēka uzbrucējs Amāre Stadamairs, bet uz Fīniksu ceļotu centrs Andris Biedriņš un 7. izvēle NBA draftā, kas notiks jau šonakt. Pagaidām nav zināms, vai šīs klubu pārrunas ir nonākušas pie gala iznākuma.
Pašlaik tiek baumots par vēl daudziem citiem iespējamajiem darījumiem, kā jau tas ierasts NBA drafta dienu laikā. Jau minētais Stadamairs ir minēts vairākkārt un vēl citi avoti vēsta, ka par viņu interesējoties arī Hjūstonas "Rockets". Tāpat "Warriors" klubs jau iepriekš ir interesējies par Stadamairu.

Marc Stein: The Warriors' interest in Amare Stoudemire stretches back to February, when Phoenix first made Amare available. The Suns also like the idea of Golden State as a trading partner if they decide to go all the way with their Shaq-sized clearout and part with Amare, too.
However ...
One of my best sources on the subject tells me that any deal that potentially lands Stoudemire in Oakland would be "complicated," if you want to boil it down to one word.
The implication is that it would be too complicated to get such a deal done tonight and involve the No. 7 pick.
A comprehensive medical evaluation of Stoudemire's eye and microfracture-repaired knee is just one of the hurdles, I'm told. The Warriors would also need some assurances or at least strong hints that they can re-sign Amare next summer or hammer out an extension with him before he ever gets to free agency.
So it's difficult to see how such a deal could go down in conjunction with the draft, in spite of genuine Suns interest in the likes of Andris Biedrins and the closest thing to an untouchable on the Warriors' roster: Anthony Randolph.
Bottom line: I've been reasonably assured that Golden State will be picking for Golden State at No. 7 in tonight's first round ... unless some other unforseen deal materializes.
I've also been warned by another Suns expert not to be surprised if they hang on to Amare and restore him to No. 1 option status under new coach Alvin Gentry, since Stoudemire flourishes in the up-tempo style Gentry has brought back and barely got a chance to play for Gentry because of the eye injury.
The problem there, of course, is that Stoudemire could leave them with nothing as a 2010 free agent, which is why the Suns will continue to explore their Amare trade options.
As for an Amare trade to Houston -- packaging Stoudemire and Leandro Barbosa to the Rockets for Aaron Brooks, Carl Landry and Tracy McGrady's mammoth expiring contract -- skepticism from sources with knowledge of both teams' thinking has been rather firm.

Bet tagad, ja paliek Biedriņš, Nash, Barbosa, Barnes... Nu nezinu... Varbūt nepiekritīsiet man, bet neredzu, ar ko tā Suns būtu labāka par Warriors.
