(Below the song that inspired this segment)
Well for those of you who missed it the Suns lost to the Brandon Roy less, Greg Oden Less, and Joel Przybilla less Blazers. So the talent less Blazers where able to stop the hottest player with the All-Star break and they did it with old as dirt Marcus Camby and LaMarcus Alridge. Amare did have 18 pts. but it took him 19 shots. If you watched the game Amare looked uninspired and quite frankly pathetic. It honestly reminded me of watching a father and son play, with the more talent son letting the father win. The sad thing is Amare was trying, not necessarily for the benefit of his team but for himself.
Depending on his player option Amare could be a member of the highly over hyped "free agent class of 2010". Amare is essentially playing to prove that he is worth a max contract and lets be honest his game needs to speak volumes. He has some what questionably effort some nights, that is hard for me to say I love Amare as a player. And worst of all hes injury prone. If Camby does this all series what team is honestly going to want a "young star" whom cant take advantage of a 35 + year old defender. He wants the Leborn, Dwade, and Chrish Bosh like money play like it. Sure their "Kobe stoppers" in the league, but their younger players against a Kobe whose athleticism is practically gone. Not the other way around. Amare is in his prime if he doesn't shape up the Suns wont just lose the series but he could potentially lose his millions in free agency as well.
