Yeah, except when he was starting to light it up. You went pretty quiet at that point. Then this happens and you're back calling him a liar and whatnot.
Pretty transparent.
Of course I was somewhat quiet. If Stat plays well, you'll never heard me criticize him. Why would I?
I'm an honest, objective poster. Can you say the same thing?
You do seem to have it in for Amar'e. Melo has been worse than Amar'e, to me, this season, but you don't seem to slash into Melo nearly as much as Amar'e. And a lot of people are banged up and out of sync in this strange, rushed season.
It's way too early to count Amar'e out for good. Even if he doesn't come back great this season, it's still way too early to count him out. Amar'e could well have a lot of elite basketball left in him. Or maybe he doesn't. The point is, we don't know, you don't know, so the constant drumbeat of negativity is a little much.
Stat is not 35 and he's shown major signs of regaining form in the recent weeks -- you didn't even give him a chance to do that and he did, right? So why should we believe you that he's finished now? You already pronounced him dead a while ago and he wasn't.
Is Derrick Rose finished too?
