Amare: 54% from the field, 84% from the FT line, 43% from 3
Bosh: 49% from the field, 82% from the FT line, 25% from 3

And Amare's jump shot is sweet.

I don't think it matters much that Amare is older when they're both really young. Amare is only a year and a half older anyway. And, Amare actually rebounds at a better rate than Bosh. It's close and Bosh is probably a little bit better, but not that much better of a rebounder.

As a Piston fan, I'd take either of them over what the Pistons currently have. I don't mind that Amare is a complete moron because the Pistons front court is horrible right now. Looking at what the Pistons have, I'd rather have talent and stupid than non-talent and smart.

I would take Bosh over Stoudamire in a heartbeat.

yup...one plays defense..one doesn't.

Does anyone have the link to the defensive plus/minus and other sortable stats to compare Bosh/Amare statistically?

Don't know if this helps, it's six games head-to-head. Maybe it's a start, there's other ways to sort on the site.

Some of you are overrating Bosh's D, he's still pretty bad, Amare is just horrible that's all.

As much as Amare is a bag and a moron, I don't blame him given what Steve Kerr has done to that team in two years.

The Spurs F.O. sent Kerr in as a spy to crush the franchise from the inside out. Pop's degree is in Soviet Studies, maybe he's employing a KGB strategy to the NBA? Steve's a cold motherf*cker: see game six of 2003 Western conf. finals.

Thanks, I saw that, but that is more of a standard measure. I am looking for strictly their defensive efficiencies and points scored when they are on vs off the floor.

In the 2005 WCF, TD didn't own Amare. The Suns got beat by a better Spurs team, especially after losing Joe Johnson and the fact the Suns had zero depth and basically played 5 players the whoel game. But, TD didn't own Amare in that series. TD held his own and the Spurs won, but Tim certainly didn't own Amare.

He owned him

There was that game during the 2005 WCF where TD played with 4 fouls in the 4th quarter, on the road, and still blocked Amare's shots

Either one would mean a couple of 'chips to Cleveland.

Not overrating it at all..I'm just saying he actually does play defense...Stoudemire doesn't even try.
