The
past seasons before landing on Dallas Mavericks' lap were pretty hard
for Amare Stoudemire. He averaged career lows with New York Knicks
because of several injuries. He was able to get good numbers last
season (11.5 points and 5.6 rebounds in 59 games split between
Knicks and Mavs) but he is not stopping there.
The
6'10 center is now with Miami Heat and he is positive the future is
better for him and his new team. He even thinks they are a good club
despite having to start over this season with arrival of new players.
“We
can be a really good team,” Stoudemire said per report by AP. “No
one thought that the Golden State Warriors would be champions this
time last year. We knew they’d be a really good team, but no one
thought they’d be world champions. With us, we know we’re a
really good team. No one thinks we can be world champions, but you
never know.”
While
the 32-year old is feeling great about their chances as a group,
Stoudemire is also optimistic about his own improvement. He is
confident that he can return to the All-Star team this 2015-16 NBA
season.
“But
he’s played in only 200 games (out of a possible 312) in the four
years since, and still isn’t entirely certain what his role will be
with the Heat. […] “Just four years ago I was an MVP candidate
and an All-Star,” Stoudemire said. “I feel like I can still get
back to that All-Star level of play. If I can achieve that, then
that’s going to help the team in its entirety. … I will accept
whatever the role is.”
