buddah, that's not even a remotely fair comparison. most of those guys were lottery picks and handed time on terrible teams.

amir was passed up FIFTY-FIVE times before he was picked, and if the pistons hadn't taken him he may not have even been drafted.

look, i want to see amir play as much as the next guy, and i think he should be getting some minutes since we're also developing stuckey and afflalo, but i'm not going to put so much blind faith in his abilities and exaggerate about how his career is being 'ruined.'
