If the Knicks want to make any noise in the playoffs, they’re going to have to be a full, healthy unit. Jeremy Lin may miss the entire first round, be at least they should have the services of Amar’e Stoudemire who is due back soon. Just hope is back holds up.
Amar’e Stoudemire loves the atmosphere across the Hudson River when the Knicks play the Nets at Prudential Center. He loves that a Knicks-Nets game in Newark feels like a home game away from home. And though he has eyed the Knicks’ last-ever visit to New Jersey tomorrow as his big return from a bulging disk, the Knicks believe having him back in Cleveland on Friday is more realistic. Stoudemire has had two contact scrimmages, but yesterday’s practice was canceled because the club was beaten up further with Tyson Chandler’s knee injury.
