Hoopdata’s Tom Haberstroh: Amare over Antawn easy choice

2010-02-13 Off By John Krolik

For those of you still wrestling with the possible Amare/Antawn choice, Hoopdata has a piece up right now comparing the two. Haberstroh is solidly in the Stoudemire camp, citing Jamison’s surprisingly poor accuracy from midrange this season.

He concludes with the following: “As much as the Cavs might believe they’re a big piece or two away from winning the title, I think it’s more accurate to believe they were always just a bounce or two away. I can see how Stoudemire makes sense if they do want to add that piece, send a message to the fans, and give LeBron a serious low-post threat, but I cannot stamp my approval on a trade for Jamison. There’s too much at stake for the franchise to bank on a player like Jamison to help bring home that elusive title to Cleveland.”

I encourage you to read the entire piece as we all continue to wait and see what the Cavalier roster will look like at the end of the week.
