Stoudemire couldn’t help himself from pointing out Chandler needed help.

Tyson’s supposed to be a great defensive player, but they still sent double- and triple-teams at me,” Stoudemire said. “So that’s kind of a compliment if you ask me. For a guy known for his defensive presence the team still sends a double-team. It shows the coaching staff still has a lot of respect for my inside game.”


Something must have got back to Stoudemire

Even Tyson words after the game showed more concern for


What Melo is going through than anyone else on the team

Those comments are incredibly tacky and embarrassing from Amar'e


I mean who does he guard 1 on 1

If you lose by 20 and the team is below .200, maybe you should cut back on the trash talking
gunsnewing @ 12/17/2014 1:13 PM
lol Amare is a funny guy
yellowboy90 @ 12/17/2014 1:14 PM
Nope he is just saying what melo told him because it had been documented by posters that MElo/Tyson had beef. Amar'e is the greatest teammate ever.
gunsnewing @ 12/17/2014 1:15 PM
Who said Amare is a great teammate? He constantly throws players and coaches under the bus
MaTT4281 @ 12/17/2014 1:16 PM
Putting "He can't guard me" in quotes implies Amar'e actually said those words.

I read this as STAT boasting about himself, not taking shots at Tyson. 3 words came off poorly: "supposed to be". I don't have a high level of expectation for what an athlete blurts out in the post game and definitely not looking for the deeper meaning.

Yeah he said "supposed to be" and "for a guy known"

Like "Tuhhhhh give me a break Tyson couldn't guard me, he needed help"

Only a douchebag would go there

Instead of saying something like

We had fun out there a few times down the court


I did my best to challenge his tough defense and at times

I was aggressive enough to cause double teams to happen


But it was good to see and compete against Tyson

I wish nothing but the best for him and Dallas


I also saw Tyson flying like an eagle through our Amar'e led

Interior D catching like 3 lobs last night. Amar'e is a straight clown

No wonder this team is 5-22 we have pure grade A arse holes on this team

Amar'e: "I can't guard anyone."
blkexec @ 12/17/2014 2:54 PM
Amar'e is trying to boost his stock value. If you can't do it through team wins....Then you have to be selfish and talk smack like you are the best scoring forward in the NBA......

Usually, if someone talks trash, they highlight what they are good at.

For example....I believe I can guard anybody on this board 1 on 1. And I doubt anybody can guard me 1 on 1.

See how I talk about both sides of the game.....Can we please get some players that are good on offense and defense? This one sided MDA offensive sh!t is worthless if you don't play defense!

blkexec @ 12/17/2014 2:58 PM
If Amar'e averaged 20 points a game the rest of the season, is that a great achievement?

What if he also gave up 25 points a game? Isn't that like scoring -5 pts a game?

This stat should apply to all players that only provide offense, and nothing else.....

YOu starting to get it now?

You can't purge until the expirings expire. You can't purge if yoru trade assets are not valued.
You draft high.

5-22 is a symptom of the problem that has plauged us for years.

Word I was just about to say that he proved he can't guard chandler either

I always got the impression those two didn't get on. Also, while everyone pushed the Melo and Amare can't play together, I think Amare and Tyson were much more incompatible.

They weren't a championship front-court. They weren't this bad either though.

Amare having good year because of health and Spacing with out Tyson!
mreinman @ 12/17/2014 4:35 PM
that interview was very telling ...

Amare is an idiot, Tyson hated Amare, and Amare is an idiot

mreinman @ 12/17/2014 4:53 PM
oh and another thing just to show how dumb amare is:

Carlisle was sending double and triple teams for 2 reasons:

1. easy turnover opportunity
2. he does not/will not/cannot(?) pass out of the double, triple, quadruple teams.

Israelis don't do dumb ... you are prolly gonna need to find a dumber country.

knicks1248 @ 12/17/2014 5:10 PM
Amare is a beast offensively giving the touches, Tyson is not a beast defensively and definitely not offensively. tyson is a solid player, but he can't guard no one 1 on 1 either, lets not forget slow ass hibert schooled his ass in the playoffs.

Tyson is a solid help defender, if he's playing with other solid defenders, but lets not get it twisted.

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
