First Shaq with his Rupaul comment, now Amare. Bosh is probably the biggest joke of a star bigman in the league when it comes to respect and being a puss. Didn't Garnett disrespect him too?

Garnett or Shaq can make the comments. Both have played tough two way basketball. But Stoudemire? Mr. No defense. He should look in the mirror sometime and he will see Bosh's reflection. They are the same player. In both their defenses they have been playing on teams with coach's who don't pay any attention to defense or much else for that matter. Just go out there and run and gun boys. Make them shats. A whole lot of similar players around them who also just float on one end of the floor.
The theory goes if you surround them with tougher, defensive players they will join in and be less of a liability. Plus they bring in a defensive assistant coach in Iavaroni. So we will see if they buy in to playing some defense.
