Aldridge's game is more complementary of Oden's than Stoudemire's game is.

How so?  I don't think that there's anything that Aldridge can do that Amare can't.  People seem to think of Amare as a great low post scorer -- and he has that ability -- but he also stretches the floor.  For instance, Amare is shooting an eFG% of 44.6% on jump shots this season, while Aldridge is shooting 42.0%; more than 50% of the shots for each player are jumpers.
 

Roy, let's explore the converse: is there anything Stoudamire can do that Aldridge can't, or can't develop? How do their offensive stats within the paint compare? (I'm asking legitimately, not rhetorically, here.)
