Bosh > Amare at this point. SMH at Amare.
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!
Bosh put up very good numbers in Toronto. It's not Lebron and Wade making him look good.
yeah, great player on a suck as steam....your still REALLY stretching to make a point and, once again did not discredit the point I made to you.
did he or did he not put better number than Amare last season (pre-playoffs). NO.
If Bosch is SO great, how come the Raptors sucked. How many times did they make the Playoff with Bosch. And if your going to bring up TORONTO Bosch, you have to bring up Suns Amare who, once again put up better numbers with more playoff appearances.
If Amare and Bosh switched places prior to free agency, their teams would have had comparable success. Bosh was mostly surrounded by garbage in Toronto; however, he played in a garbage conference and still didn't do anything notable. Meanwhile, Amare played with an MVP playmaker that makes the players around him better. It was an ideal system that maximized Amare's offensive potential. Elite point guard. Shooter at every position. Ideal spacing. If Bosh were in that offense, his numbers and efficiency would skyrocket.
The fact of the matter is that Bosh can create for himself quite well. He is more polished and more versatile offensively. Amare is an elite finisher. He can manage creating for himself only if there is ideal spacing (stretch-4). But besides scoring, which the two are comparable in if you give Amare a PG, Bosh is the better passer, rebounder and defender. Amare is so bad at those three categories that they subtract from his strengths.
nope because in the regular season Bosch was not playing down low as, he has come to realize is where he can help his team the most. The realization came during the playoffs and he even spoke about it. Amare would have been playing in the post and dunking on cats, not playing the soft ball Bosch was playing last season.
Also, you helped make my point. Bosch played in a weak conference and did nothing notable (your words not mine). If he's so great they would have been better and Amare benefited from Nash but, as he more than proves last year he is not a product of Nash.
Amare is the type of players that will demoralize a team...Bosch is the type of player you can muscle up, push out the paint and turn into a jump shooter. Give me Amare any day of the week.
He's playing bad so, he's an easy target but, I fully expect him to return to form (Once we get a guard that can get him the damn ball).
Now, that's what I call responded and debating a point Bonn. You made some points that have made me think and I agree with some of what you wrote. Amare's defense is shyt and there is no excuse for him being as bad as he has for years now. His rebounding has risen this season (when he plays above 30minutes) so, I give him that and I believe he's a better shot blocker but, Bosch is the better all around player. Just that what Amare does do well, he is an absolute beast at.
I give then a tie on the mid range but Amare has the better inside game And his passing as seen last season playing with Gallo and company is very very good. So, Bosch only gets the edge in defense and is averaging maybe 1more rebound a game than Amare which is a wash too. Amare is the better shot blocker though
the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt
