Stoudemire or Yao?

The White T-mac · 08-26-2006, 08:02 PM

I say a healthy Stoudemire is much better.

insaneradical · 08-26-2006, 08:23 PM

I'd say Ming's probably more polished right now.

Amare's offensive game consists of dunking.. and dunking. If he could get some actual moves, the Suns would be killer.

Amar? is a fucking beast healthy

Amare actually does have some moves of his own. He has developed an OK midrange jumper & he has a lot of aggressive spin moves to spin off of his defenders for some crazy low post points. His athleticism & strength's so'em the league hasn't seen interwined into one in a very long time, so Amare wins this player comparison by a long shot. Ya'll are counting him out as being injury prone just because of last season's injury? Just wait. When Amare's back to his explosive self, he'll make Yao look a fool more than when Stephon "Starbury" Marbury crossed the sucka so bad he just fell flat on his butt

. Yao's just not that athletic & he gets into a lot of foul trouble, so he'll never be counted on for being productive for at least 38-40 minutes of play.

This is a no brainer.. Amare.

The White T-mac · 08-26-2006, 10:00 PM

Yao is a better rebounder obviously, but he cant score like Amare.

KirkHinrich12 · 08-27-2006, 01:52 AM

Amare. He's 7-foot, he can rebound, score, and he's a more explosive player than Yao.

This is the worst comparison yet Stoudemire by far

Yes he is. I would take a healthy Stoudemire over a healthy Yao anyway. Although Yao is bigger, Stoudemire plays stronger and he plays bigger than Yao.
