Amare has step up his defense this yr, 5 blocks one game, 5 steals the next, But the haters won't reconize it, they won't reconize that our overall defensive philosophy (let everybody shoot 3's just guard the paint)is so 90's. You remember the 90's when they were maybe 1 or 2 good 3 point shooters on a team, not 5 or 6 like it is in todays game.
Besides, if your not a stretch 4 your worthless on most teams
did you watch the game last night?
for every point that amare scores he gives up 5.
Also, did you see his fugly turnovers on the double and triple teams? Carlisle made him look like the tool that he is.
Why in the world do you defend this guy??? I don't get it.
It's not Amare I'm defending, it's the fact that you miss the 15 wide open 3's(45%) dallas made. we didn't lose the game because of amare's Defense.
As soon as you watch the entire game instead of focusing on a amare's lapses on defense, You will realize that he's a small part of the problem on defense. You guys hate amare so much that you turn a blind eye to our real issues. We have players on this roster that make amare look like Mutumbo
It's so narrow minded and box thinking to keep ridiculing every single word he says, especially when a he's talking about TYSON, who nobody lost a wink of sleep when he go traded.
do I just talk about amare? you don't see all my comments about other knick players?
Amare is just one of our many stinkers ... he is competing to be our dumbest player though

Yeah, Tyson averaged 13 points and 20 rbs a game against the Knicks this year. You'd think Amare would have a little humility.
so ironic ...
you can't make that sh1t up.
In what sense? If you're talking about Tyson, at least he has real achievements to fall back on. Tyson's also never talked trash about a player who outplayed him as far as I'm aware. So I don't see any parallel here, though I recognize your effort.
Was talking about Amare.

Oh Jees man Amare was once first team all NBA 7 times an all star had season Tysons could only dream about. That is not close
All-star appearances? That doesn't come to mind when I think of ultimate basketball achievements. They're a dime a dozen. I think a DPOY, a ring, and an Olympic gold medal are more impressive.
What would make you happier? If you learned the guy we draft with our lotto pick will make a bunch of all-star appearances or that he'll play a key role in bring a ring here?
The DPOY was a joke.
He was not used that much in the olympics because his skill set did not fit into what coach k wanted (bigs that can shoot).
You make this guy out to be a HOFer and he is not even close.
Also, before he got to dallas, he pretty much was very mediocre.
Compared to Amare, he practically is an HOFer.
Compared to actual HOFers, of course he isn't. (His WS% might put him in that category though!)

his career WS48 is 159
in the playoffs, its 139
HOF???
I hate to say this but these threads are completely irrelevant. Why do we care what Amare says to Tyson? Were 5-22.
lol, I changed my mind. let's give him the 3 years for 9m.

There would have been but Splat was busy writing about how Melo ruined the NBA and F5 was trying to figure out how his kid turned every key on his iphone to produce /////////
Besides. We all know every player in the league hates Melo and he ruined Linsanity and killed superman

look at the topic starter and what is it all these guys talk about?
BTW your thought of giving a productive NBA vet a low money contract has you labeled an Amare-loving-zealot. Your dangerously close to jock riding. Tread carefully

Usually players are evaluated for the HOF based on their prime years, not overall career. I was just playing around though anyway. I wasn't seriously arguing he was a hall-of-famer.

I think this is the essence of the issue though... they are cared more about their image than they are putting in the work

Oh I clearly stated in my first post
That Tyson showed sympathy to the loser Port-A-Belly Anthony
But that wasn't good enough, you guys wanted me to take
Off my $3700.00 lynx coat and place it over the puddle
So you and that Willy Wonka Crumb Cake Red Tails hat wearing heavy set bum
Could walk over puddles while not getting wet walking in the rain

I could have used visuals

Willy Wonka =

Crumb Cake =

All of the above is tied to "Walking In The Rain"
Reading the article it's not as bad as the headline makes it sound. NY Post at its best.
