Now, getting back to Stat. Is he the best rebounder at his position? Nope, I don't know why. Brook Lopez did some rebounding drills this summer, perhaps Amare should do the same. Is he the best defender at his position? Far from it. He is not the worst either. Not when it comes to his career. He used to help out on d pretty good and you cannot be a top blocker in the league without a commitment of some kind to defence. His offense I' d like to revisit once BD comes back because, as of right now, he has the worst back court out of ANY BIG MAN IN THE LEAGUE. I don't care if you play with your back to the basket, creating shots for yourself or if you play facing the basket ,like Dirk, you still need some kind of PG. Any kind of PG , AmARE has none. So let's revisit this in a bit once BD comes back.

I approve this message.

A: Dirk has a post game.
B: Dirk can drive.
c: Dirk can pass the ball.
D: Better team defender than Amare.(Anyone at this point is.)

Amare STILL refuses to rebound, block out, or defend. I mean dam.

Bosh > Amare at this point. SMH at Amare.

Bosh looked like an MVP last night. The guy is playing like a diseased ferret.

Thats the problem with judging players/teams game to game...

It's true. I hope Amar'e can get his swag back like Bosh has.

Yeah I been watching the Heat play since I live in Miami and Bosh looks much better than Amare. looks like Bosh would better fit this team at this point. Post up, very good mid range shooter. Moves without the ball. okay defender(not piss poor like Amare).

Amare would look awesome if he had Wade and Lebron attracting the bulk of the attention....VERY poor comparison. Also, as I said, I believe much of his problem stems from being phased out of the offense by both Douglas who won't pass to him and Melo chucking non-stop.

How can you get in a flow (not talking about the foul trouble) when you get maybe get one touch in a single quarter!! Spans of minutes go by without him even sniffing the rock.

Yup Yup.

In regards with TD, I honestly don't think he can make an entry pass.

Since the 2nd half of last year, Bosh has played way better than Amare has.

put Amare on that Team and he'd make Bosh look like Landry Fields. Poor analogy!

Wade is injured.

If anything Lebron AND Wade are taking away from Bosh. The guy is soft but he is a skilled big. I think of him as a Gasol type play. Will put up great stats but can never be "the man" on a team.

Bosh is more rounded player than Amare. If Amare isn't scoring he isnt having much effect on the game. It's sad but true.

If Amare wants the ball he should grab some rebounds.
