Amare Stoudemire Versus GS Warriors: By the Numbers

To get an idea of what the Suns would be getting if they traded Amare Stoudemire to the Golden State Warriors for Andris Biedrins, Brandan Wright, and Marco Belinelli and not Stephen Curry, below is a comparison of per game career stats.

Scoring:
Stoudemire – 21.1
Biedrins, Wright, Belinelli combined – 20.8

Free Throw Attempts
Stoudemire – 7.8
Biedrins, Wright, Belinelli combined – 4.5

Rebounds:
Stoudemire – 8.9
Biedrins, Wright, Belinelli combined – 12.6

Assists:
Stoudemire – 1.4
Biedrins, Wright, Belinelli combined – 2.8

Steals:
Stoudemire – 0.9
Biedrins, Wright, Belinelli combined – 1.7

Blocks:
Stoudemire – 1.5
Biedrins, Wright, Belinelli combined – 2.1

If the Suns could figure out how to put seven players on the court at the same time and play Biedrins, Wright, and Belinelli along with the four other Suns starters, the trade looks OK. All Steve Kerr needs to do is lobby David Stern for a 7-on-5 rule for the Suns, and it’ll be all set.
