Amar’e Surprised by Free Agent Attention Chris Bosh Received

Don’t think many people have Chris Bosh being better than Amar’e now.

I could name about 5-7 PFs that are better than Chris Bosh, heck I think Blake Griffin is probably better than Chris Bosh

If I might add, he played as much games as STAT even if he got to the NBA a year later. Any other questions Amar’e.

Why be bitter Amare ? Karma can be a Beehatch especially when the Three Kings are in town. You wouldn’t fit into their system anyway coz you take too many shots & are too injury prone to fit in there okaaayy ?

So what Amare is sayin’ is: Bosh should be playin with Iverson ? This is almost as bad as the Amare was never taught defence article.

Because if you were in Toronto putting up your NYC numbers, no one would care either.

Because if Bosh had been playing with Steve Nash, there’s a very good chance he would have gotten better as well, and also not have received credit for it.

And also, like MUBWAR said, you’ve been in the league one more year, and you’ve only played 6 games more than him and you have identical stats career wise.

All the hype had to do with potential, not whether or not anyone liked Bosh’s game, and no one saw TO games, just the stats.

With that said, yeah, that was pretty much the NY Post playing instigator…

amare playing 3rd banana to wade/lbj and his numbers might be down too. just like sticking bosh into dantonis system would probably have him averaging career highs. i would rather have bosh as a 3rd option than amare as a 1st option, no question.

Also, CB is a better jumpshooter, a better rebounder and a MUCH better defender (I didn’t think so either but the stats show that Amar’e is allowing a point per post up situations this year – which is absolutely horrible – whereas Bosh is allowing 0.5 points per post up situation). Finally, I think a lot of teams that were pursuing Bron/Wade felt that CB was easier to integrate as a supporting player than Amar’e who would have probably tried to take as many shots as the big dogs. I know very well that all of this doesn’t sound good right now because Amar’e is beasting but don’t get fooled by shot attemps – he wouldn’t be doing this in MIA and history shows that CB would be doing something similar to what Amare is doing if he were in NYK.

well guys,thats why it´s an inexact science..even the best of em screw up that prediction-thing..
see whitaker,lang..good heavens i still cant believe the hawks drafted marvin williams in the first place-let alone pay him like 8mil a year now..BUT:..it sounded like a good idea at the time..all you can do-make the decisions based on the information available at that point..
talent-wise i considered amare to be waaay above bosh at any time-for one i never thaught that much of bosh,but more than that, i always considered a healthy amare an mvp candidate..but could it all have gone terribly different?(and even worse,can it still..?)you never know if those previously damaged knees just might break down once again..for the sake of fandom,lets all hope it doesnt happen..

Amar’e's numbers aren’t up!! He is just shooting more shots

No he isn’t playing any sort of defense. 31 & 31 from Kevin Love on Amar’e. 20 and 20 from Nazr Muhammad on Amar’e. 44 and 14 from Blake Griffin on Amar’e. Not he is not playing any defense

Why do these retard superstars get suckered into the media like this? They only want a juicy story so they should just keep their answers short and concise that way they’re not misconstrude.

Really, the main substantial difference between the two is that STAT is a roller and Bosh is a popper off screens.

robb is right. Bosh is like a ritch mans Rashard Lewis.

T-Money: I agree with the majority of your post, with the exception that Bosh would do as well in D’Antoni’s system. That, my friend, is a little off. Bosh runs the floor well but he’s very finesse. A lot of D’Antoni’s system involves unloading to your center and having him dunk over everyone at full speed.

I have never been around a self proclaimed Jewish person who is jealous of another man. I have never been around Amar’e Stoudemire, either. Stoudemire, in my experiences then, is a fraudulent Jewish person.
For believers, jealousy is a sin.

YEah, I agree with Jukai, that without Amare’s amazing rolls to the hoop, D’Antoni’s system doesn’t work as well.
Amare is better at offense. Bosh is better at everything, and I mean EVERYTHING else.
But, I hope Bosh gets pissed and goes at Amare’s head tonight. I like that Amare said what he said though.
“Who the hell is Chris Bosh? I’m Amare b*tches.”

T-Money
And the system didn’t work as well with David Lee doing what he was doing. Rolling ot the basket makes everything easier in that system.

Allenp:
In my personal experiences, no.
In The Bible, of course there is jealousy throughout. That almost goes without saying.

Ill take Blake Griffen over Karl Malone any day. LOL has anybody seen the shake ups commercial!

As much as I love Amare’s game, I too would have choosen Bosh over him. Amare can score with the best of them but he can also get scored on with the worst of them. He’s in the same category as a steve nash, they willl win some games with their scoring but they will lose games in the playoffs with their lack of D. Bosh on the other hand, at least gives an effort on D and is having his best defensive season so far, he’s a way better rebounder, he possess an equal jumpshot, he’s better on the block, and he doesn’t have any desire to take each and every shot.

How can we say Bosh can’t shoulder a team based on Toronto? He got them to the playoffs twice despite never playng with a point guard, shooting guard or small forward of the same caliber that Amare has had his entire career.
Hell, Raymond Felton is better than any point guard Bosh has played with, and overall, the Knicks are a way more talented team. Andrea is probably better than Gallo by a hair, but at least Gallo is capable of driving to the rim once somebody reminds him that he should try it. And Chandler is really undderrated.
Anyway, Amare is nice, and he’s being given the chance to do what he does well, and his team is winning. Good for him.
But, Bosh does more, and I’d wager that he’s going to show Amare tonight exactly what he can do. Bring it on!

Uhm Gallo can play defense Allen, lol andrea bargnani couldn’t guard George Mikan, today

Bosh will prove himself.

I feel like Bosh brought them to the Playoffs when the East was a significantly weaker conference than what it is now. Once the Bobcats and the Bucks became relevant (i.e. last season) the Raptors were nowhere to be found in the post-season. Let’s not forget that Calderon had at least one solid season in the Bosh era, although you’re right about there being holes at every other position. Bosh is a great player and would probably play even better as a second option, but I sincerely doubt that he could lead a team on his own the way that Amar’e is, especially under the scrutiny of New York.
