Should Amar’e Stoudemire get more playing time?

With 10 points in only 8 minutes yesterday against Sacramento, Amar’e Stoudemire proved he can be more than a benchwarmer for the Miami Heat but will Erik Spoelstra change his rotation?

When Miami Heat starting center Hassan Whiteside got in early foul trouble last night against the Sacramento Kings, Erik Spoelstra surprised us a little bit by going with Amar'e Stoudemire, a guy who only played a total of 12 minutes in the first ten games of the season. Maybe it was because Chris Andersen was not with the team for personal reasons, or because coach Spo didn't want to change his normal rotations.
