Hello,
As a Knicks hater I'm so glad Amar'e Stoudemire is making his return for the Knicks tonight. Although with Stoudemire playing tonight there's one very nervous fire extinguisher. J.R. Smith isn't feeling well and may not be able to play tonight, does that mean that Stoudemire will take his bad shots for him? Or will Carmelo Anthony pick up the slack for Smith. I look forward to the day, and it will happen, when Anthony has a 6 for 29 shooting night and is less than 50% on the Meads Metric. With the overrated Stoudemire back and Smith possibly missing tonight's game, will tonight be the night?
Is Stoudemire the worst free agency signing in the last few years? Stoudemire is so bad he makes the Bulls Carlow Boozer look like a bargain, and believe me that takes some doing. Stoudemire is being paid $100 million for the life of his current contract and the Knicks aren't sure they even want to play him. ESPN points out so well that the Knicks are 16-13 with Stoudemire and 38-15 without him. I'm so excited he's back tonight.
A few quick questions about the dysfunctional Knicks. How many seconds after their season ends, which will be sooner than later, before they try to dump Stoudemire? Will the Knicks realize that if Carmelo Anthony is their best player that they'll never reach the promised land? Will the Knicks be the first team that has a fight between two teammates in a playoff game? Who's the worst owner: Donald Sterling, James Dolan or Jerry Jones?
Who are the Heat more frightened of: the injury depleted Bulls or the overrated Knicks? I actually expect the Bulls to be a tougher opponent than the Knicks. That is if the Knicks can somehow reach the Eastern Conference Finals. Although I would be surprised if it takes the Heat more than 5 games to beat the Knicks. That is unless they get bored, then they sometimes don't play to their full effort.
Watching last night's Heat-Bulls game I was so glad that Jeff Van Gundy was calling it and not Bulls homer Steve Kerr. Again I suggest Van Gundy should call all interesting NBA games. That means I hope that he's in Indiana tonight. I also like Hubie Brown, but Kerr is awful.
Updated following Game 3. I was glad that the Pacers were able to beat the Knicks tonight. However that was the one of the most boring NBA games I've ever seen in my life. It seemed like the game was played between two teams that have been off for 5 days. What, they have been off for five days? Well maybe the NBA should avoid doing that any more. Again like the rest of this playoffs, this series feels extraneous. Will the Heat have a problem with either one of these teams? I don't think so, if the Bulls were at full health my prediction is that they would have been the second best team in the Eastern Conference this season. Now the fully healthy Bulls vs. the Heat in the Eastern Conference- that has all the makings of a classic.
This Knicks team is bad. Carmelo Anthony likes to shoot a bad shots, but he's not even in the same league as J.R. Smith. Tonight's excellent announcing duo kept on saying they needed Smith's offense. Really they needed the offense of a man who shoots terrible shots and only made 33% of his field goals? Then Stoudemire again shows why he's such a weak link for the Knicks. In 9 minutes he got up 8 shots! He made 3 of his shots, including a big three pointer to close out the series. But wow I'm still not sure why the Knicks gave him a $100 million contract. When the Knicks get eliminated in the next week or so they need to get another offensive player to compliment Anthony. Stoudemire and Smith aren't that person.
