Posted in The second homecoming, of sorts, for Amare Stoudemire took place at Madison Square Garden on Monday night as the Phoenix Suns came to New York City to take on the New York Knicks. This game would promise to be a high-octane contest where defense would be an afterthought. While Stoudemire didn’t disappoint (he scored a season-high 41 points), it [...]

Stoudemire’s Late Baskets Power Knicks Past Pacers 98-92
The New York Knicks hosted the Indiana Pacers at Madison Square Garden on Sunday in what was an important game for both squads, with New York and Indiana checking in at the #6 and #7 seeds in the Eastern Conference, respectively.

If they had played this well around November or December, thye could be chasing a playoff berth in [...]

Pierce nailed 14 the first try and, in the scoring system with a “money ball” worth double, [...]
