let me state some facts real quick:
1)like BD, Amare did not play basketball in 6 months(yes BD was 9 close enough) before playing this season with the exception of 1 game.
2) YES he had the whole first half of the season to get his shit together, but with all the roster changes him playing power foward for only the 3rd time in his whole career playing without a point guard for 75 percent (even more) of the first half is alot to get accustomed to.
3)He gained 20 pounds of muscle during the off season, as a person who constantly gains and looses muscle, it does affect what you are use to doing.
his jumpshot for example he has gotten stronger and doesnt have the soft touch anymore(why all his shots are often to strong).
4)we are not the miami heat or any other team for that matter, we will not gel as quickly as any other team has with all the roster changes we have made in the past year, with the emergence of Lin, its going to be a bumpy ride.
all the hate is understandable but everyone needs to relax pop a Xanax or something cause all of your expectations are ridiculous. Even when stat becomes the player he was he will still probably be averaging close to what he is now with a higher FG%. i am finished.
