I agree that Amir should play more to give us a better idea of what he can do, largely because his strengths (athleticism, shot-blocking, rebounding) are things that could fill in some gaps among the 3 big men we have in the rotation. We don't know he'd do under pressure, but I think it would benefit the team to give him a shot and see how he does.

I'd also like to see AA play more, but my point is just that his strengths are (IMO) largely already available to us for the playoffs via Lindsey. So I don't think AA has the same potential to be as uniquely relevant to our playoff hopes *this season* as a better-developed Amir might be.
