Landry Fields tried to punch the same fire extinguisher, but missed.

Damit it's his left hand, not his shooting hand. Guess he's still playing Thursday...

depends on the severity. if its deep he will have a hard time catching and dribbling. Defensively he should be able to play through it since he doesn't use his hands anyway

Tyson saying Amare may not be able to play in game three.
AnubisADL @ 4/30/2012 10:24 PM
Amare cant be serious.

Please trade him to the Brooklyn Nets. Thanks.

I think that should break his contract.

VDesai @ 4/30/2012 10:25 PM
Might actually be some addition by subtraction since he and Melo can't figure out how to space the floor and play together anyway. Maybe we can get some better ball movement.
matt @ 4/30/2012 10:25 PM
something is definitely wrong with him, other than basketball. That whole "brother tragically dying in a car crash" thing combined with an injured back all season must be screwing with the guys head real bad.


.... box out

ChuckBuck @ 4/30/2012 10:27 PM
Maybe there's something in his contract that we can trade him by self inflicted injury. Just no excuse for this garbage.
AnubisADL @ 4/30/2012 10:31 PM
Amare is mad? So what. Amare plays soft.

Grab some boards Amare. Get a post game Amare.

*Prays Nets sign Nash and trade Williams to us for Amare*

If he wanted to throw a punch and possibly miss a game, he should have punched LeBron or D-Wade. Better yet, he should have put that energy into dunking the ball and hitting his damn free throws instead of so many tired layup attempts.

LOL. amen brotha

nyk4ever @ 4/30/2012 10:34 PM
i don't care how many points amare had tonight - he made absolutely zero impact on the game. he has completely lost all explosiveness around the hoop and can't finish. he plays no defense whatsoever and doesn't even attempt to stop layups. dude acts like a tough guy but he plays softer than steve kerr. i've had enough of amare.

if he really is out next game, it's probably addition by subtraction because amare is just a detriment right now.

Damn as i trash amare i forgot about that. its been a rough year for him but he just doesn't fit a defensively oriented team. Not trying to be a dick. It is what it is

It's tough. Everyone, myself included, trashes the guy but we forget that he also has real problems. Playing just might not be the fix right now..
