Both have a reputation of being great offensive players, but bad defenders. Amare was the main reason the suns always had an average to below average defense, poor rebounder, poor post defense, poor defensive IQ. KAT is somewhat undersized as well, not a proficient rim protector, doesn’t rly get many blocks, not the best defensive IQ either. But he is a good rebounder and stronger lower body than Amare.
Stoudemire was incredibly bad. Like did not understand any team defensive concepts and since then has said d’antoni didn’t practice any defensive schemes with the team at all. He had athleticism and could’ve been great if he came up under a different coach.
