I think Stoudamire, just one year out of high school, is so much better. I can't figure out why he wasn't hyped in high school like Labron is. Why wasn't he the next big thing on the SI covers?
i think it was because of the rookie from highschool (brown a.o.) did not perform that year, so people thought amare would not be that good. And now amare is playing great Lebron James will be hyped even more. but i'm not sure i do not even live in the U.S.A. so i do not even notice a player being hyped.
