So maybe not way better, but better.

Actually... check out the shooting details.

Amar'e breaks down as:
66% of his made baskets were mid-to-long range jumpers (11.1 ppg)
24% of his made baskets were close shots (5.3 ppg)
7% of his made baskets were dunks (2.4 ppg)
3% of his made baskets were tips (.4 ppg)
A total of 34% of his shots came from "inside" for 8.1 ppg
Love breaks down as:
56% of his made baskets were mid-to-long range jumpers (6.9 ppg)
35% of his made baskets were close (5.8 ppg)
3% of his made baskets were dunks (.6 ppg)
7% of his made baskets were tips (1.2 ppg)
A total of 44% of his shots came from "inside" for 7.5 ppg
So really, it's Amar'e who SHOULD be at the disadvantage in terms of skewing the FG%.
