Stoudemire's Summer Of Content

[Nashfan]

It's the British spelling.

The British spelling of what??

I think he's immensely talented, but when he put his forearm into Manu's throat and then took issue with getting kicked in the nuts, it told me all I need to know about him.

I don't think you really can say much about Amare's physical play when the Spurs play that way themselves. Though I guess you might be able to detect a dirty play since you do have Bowen and Manu on your team.
And yes, Amare is immensely talented just not in the defensive area.

Mabey by taking class at a college. Oh wait is doing that.........

Sound advice coming from someone who seems like he barely passed 4th grade.

Amare is georgeous BUT - what can he do to improve his IQ over the summer?

The guy looks like an ass

Stoudemire must be tired of losing to the Spurs.

He's lost to them in 2003, 2005, and 2007. The funny thing is, the Suns team in 2003 before they had Nash got the closest.

Damn, it's true

It had nothing to do with physical play, it's more that he's a pussy. He cried because Manu kicked him, but the kick was due to Amare putting a hard foul into Manu's throat. Rather than just figure he gave as good as he got and proceed with the game, Amare threw a hissy fit. Notice that while this was happening Manu just went to the line and took his free throws. That's the difference between a winner (Manu) and a loser (Amare).

Amare's only talented in the defensive area when he's defending his shriveled little testacles.

maybe he should put in a little less time on the offensive moves and more on defense. that way maybe he'll actually be on the court when his team needs him.

Amare is doing what HS players do.

Dunk on shorter players and then get all pumped up about it.

Anyone in the NBA can do that.

It's all about defense. I don't care if you're motivated and you think you deserve the championship, no one is en led to it. You have to go out and play for it. And yes Amare, to have a gold medal and a world championship by 25 would be good, but don't think just because you say that, that you'll win the championship.

What's with the Travis Bickle look for Amare?

Typically the winners and whiners are the same when it comes to the NBA. Just because guys complain doesn't mean that they have something wrong with their mentality. I could give less than two s about his at ude. If he wants to and moan about getting kicked in the (which you have every right to do), I won't complain. He just needs to learn that he can't block every shot and he's more useful to the team when he's on the floor then sitting out with four fouls.

I want to see him reach his potential. This guy is a beast.

agreed

How do you know he hasn't reached it?
