1.) but he did sprain his knee...lol..nevertheless i agreeQuote:

3.)no, he's not. At least not easily. If anything they are even as guys who do better as weak side shot blockers.
4.)Weak excuse that doesnt apply to 2008 Stoudy. Dude scores in the post, from the perimeter, one on one, and in the break. He did against us and does against everyone else. Bosh has more post moves but Stoudy is just as effective on offense.
5.) Wait Bosh is more athletic but Stoudemire relies more on his Athleticism? WTF???!! Again you are thinking of a stoudemire from awhile back. And if all this athleticism bullshit were true his points woulda went down severely(I'll take 21 ppg) as would his rebounding since he isn't the leaper he was pre microfracture surgery("though he's no slouch as a leaper). I think like Glenn said both guys are fairly even, and to write Stoudemire off as one dimensional is ignorant imo. Because he hasn't been the past two years.
I do think, from all that I have read/processed, that Bosh would be alright being option 1a, while Stoudemire is coming across like he wants to be THE MAN.

I just get the impression that Bosh is more willing to be a "complementary star" than Amar'e. I mean, Amar'e's got that right now and he's not happy since he's not the focal point of the team.
Bosh IS the focal point and he wants out to go to a better situation.
Bullshit, if the money is the same, the best chance to win takes priority, but if NYC was offering way more, best your ass money comes first.Quote:

I do think winning matters to him, more than it does to Amar'e, IMO.
Amar'e seems to be saying "I want to be the man", from what I have heard.
The fact that Bosh is willing to leave Toronto (who can pay him more than any other team) demonstrates that he's not just about the cash.
Something tells me that Amar'e wants to go elsewhere to boost his numbers for that next contract.
Doesn't mean I wouldn't get him if I was Joe.
Players make way more in NY than they do anywhere else. The endoresement deals are as much as their salaries for the superstars. Not to mention if they win anything.
Personally, I think we go after Amare regardless. Worst comes to worse, he can be an asset to get Bosh if we wish. If Bosh actually gets to free agency, we offer him the max even if we got Amare. I think we got enough cash to do that, even if our bench sucks. Who gives a shit at that point though, as we would be in the finals with that lineup.
And he's already "The Man" for Toronto.Quote:
