If you actually read my post ducks you would see that despite his 0 assist games I clearly acknowledge the fact that it doesn't matter that Amare is not getting assists. I am saying his scoring efficiency and output is MORE than making up for it.Quote:
his job is not to get assist
It would still be nice to have some assists along with those stats though right?
Are you saying that on the basis of Nash getting more assists on Phoenix that Amare > Dirk?? Are you kidding me? If TD is the "Big Fundamental" Amare is his alter ego.
Amare > Dirk!? Amare=Drob?? I mean seriously?
If someone asks me right now to start a team with Amare or Dirk, I take Amare no questions asked.
Right now who is the better player then?
Mouse talk some sense into them
(i never thought the day would come...)
You tell me ...
Do you want someone averaging 28.2 points, 9.4 rebounds and 2.0 blocks who is shooting 57.6% from the floor ... or would you rather have someone who is averaging 27.3 points, 10.6 rebounds and 1.5 blocks while shooting 50.8% from the floor. And oh yeah, the first player is four years younger.
If you are starting a team, you take Amare. If you want to win right this second, it's a tougher choice.
4 assist so for tonight
halftime
You can't bring in percentages. Since Dirk shoots 20 feet farther than Stoudemire.
9 games - no matter how much it hurts your team, no matter how many games you win.Quote:

2nd in Efficiency ranking
16th rebounds per game

And all that on a pretty good team.
Right now he is looking like an MVP candidate, but then so is Dirk.
Meanwhile Nash is second in FG% which is quite an achievement for a guard and first in assists obviously. 16 points, 12 assists on .57% FG% and .47% 3PT% are Stockton-like stats.
Remember people...players like Amare and KMart need great PG's to heighten their game...it's happened for years...Look at Kmart now...where is he really. Amare is sick, but getting lob passes to you isn't going to be a career move. He needs to diversify his bag of tricks..who knows maybe he'll get a jumper...but I don't think I've ever seen him take a shot....
he takes jumpers I saw in on the news take a 18 foot jumper and nail it
it was the suns highlight
Yea Medvedenko that is a great Point. Plus I think that the things that guys like shaq and Duncan bring to the table is their ability to make the people around them better players. If Amare conitinues to progress his game at the rate he has in the past he will be in line to win a couple of championships. Although his job is not to get assists it would be nice to see that element added to his game on a consistent basis. I Also want to see how he fares against some of the better defenders in the leauge, especially now that he has nash on his side. and just to throw my vote in I would rather have Amare on my team than Dirk.
