Amare Stoudemire was asked about a report that indicated the odds of him being dealt around 40 to 50 percent.

"I'm not sure," said Stoudemire. "It's possible, same as it was last year. So like I've said before my agent is conversing a lot with the front office here (in Phoenix) and we are going to come up with a decision soon."

ESPN's Chad Ford reported on Thursday that, "the word out of Phoenix is that there has been some tension in the locker room involving Stoudemire."

"What's locker room tension? What is that?" said Stoudemire rhetorically when asked about the report.
