There are alot of people's that have come out of high school, LeBron James, Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryabt. Just because Amare came from high school you think he sucks I bet if he was on the Spurs you would think he is great, Look at Tony Parker and Manu they played international and they are sick. Give him credit he avarged 26 points in the regular season and he won Rookie of the Year over Yao Ming. I bet if NBA scouts offered you the chance you would take it too, I know I would if they offered me millions of dollers and fame of being a athlete.
