First Amare Stoudemire comparison

http://www.khou.com/sharedcontent/video/ma...usil_070618.wmv</p>

Still think it's way too much hype, but who knows.</p>

 

It is too much, the guy looks like a hard worker though so I don't see why he couldn't become something close to Amare.</p>

 

I don't see the comparison at all. If anything, he hasn't done more than show me that he can be the next Stromile Swift. Kenyon Martin is still a stretch.</p>

 

this was so long ago i saw this way before the draft</p>

 

What contemptuous bullshit...comparing him to Stromile Swift. To be expected.</p>

 

Actually he seem very smart. for someone who has played so little organized ball, he seems to pick up things very quickly. Look how long it took players like Boki and Wright to be comfortable in franks systems.</p>

 

I really saw nothing in that video, that a guy like Noah couldn't do there. While Sean Williams will be great, comparing him to Amare, is a bit premature. I think it is very possible, but Amare has a lot more to his game, even at a young age, while Williams is still a bit raw. However, I can see Williams becoming an Amare type player, possibly being way better inside.</p>

 

I can't see him becoming another Amare. Amare has range out to 18-20 feet. We don't see that (yet) from Williams. Amare's rebounding is as much a factor of his physical strength as it is his athletic ability. I don't see him with that that level of strength anytime soon. His frame is narrower than Amare's and right now there is a 15 pound weight disparity.</p>

What I do see is someone who has great athletic gifts and is willing to learn. I think he could be a 15/7.5/2.5 guy in the league...a steal at #17.</p>

 

I think, with all things considered, including the knee injury factor, it'd be close.</p>

 

This seasons just a starting point but if works on his game the way Wright has put into it, he could easily get the range Amare has.</p>

I don't see him being like Amare but like NI said, a 17/7/2 type guy.</p>

 

I could see him become Stromile Swift with a functiong brain and better shotblocking(is this one or two words?) ability.</p>

 

He's good right now but a lot of hard work during the off season and he'll be more productive than any big the nets have, with the exception of krstic maybe. Krstic may never be the same again.</p>

 

I don't think there's anything wrong with a Stromile comparison if we're talking athletics. For all of Stromile's retardation mentally he's still a pretty scary athlete. You can't compare the two mentally as Sean has already displayed a better BBIQ IMO. While Sean does get in foul trouble sometimes it's usually from ticky tack stuff and trying to cleanup someone elses mess. The one thing that I love is that he is amazing at contesting shots and avoiding contact, the problem that most rookie shotblockers have. He has a high ceiling but i'd rather just watch him grow than try and give him some benchmark because while there are guys similar to his style of play nobody really has the same unfazed demeanor, especially at his age. Not to mention he's already a better defender than Amare is currently.</p>

 

Stoudemire's first 12 games vs. Williams' first 12 games...</p>

People are saying Kenyon and Amare, but he's not a perimeter defender like Kenyon was, and he's not strong enough, or offensively gifted enough, to be considered the next Amare.</p>

How about the next Ben Wallace?</p>

 

He's more offensive than that.</p>

If he picks up his perimeter D, gain some weight, and rebound better then I would agree.</p>

Tyson Chandler. Shotblocking, post O/D, athletic, reasonable midrange.</p>

 

I think Sean Williams is Ben Wallace alike.</p>
