Amar'e Stoudemire News

Indiana Pacers guard D.J. Augustin passes the basketball to centre Roy Hibbert around New York Knicks centre Amar'e Stoudemire while Knicks guards Jason Kidd and J.R. Smith watch the play during the first half of their NBA Eastern Conference second round playoff game in Indianapolis, Indiana May 18, 2013.

Amar'e Stoudemire continued his run of bold, spiritual fashion statements by wearing a Yarmulke to the Knicks' shootaround.

It turns out the New York Knicks didn't need to employ a bigger lineup against the Indiana Pacers' massive frontcourt after all.

Mike Woodson left no doubt that he was in full "win-or-go home" mode in Thursday's elimination-avoiding Game 5 victory over Indiana.

Mike Woodson is paid for a weekly radio spot on ESPN-98.7, but was mysteriously absent on Wednesday.

As the NBA playoffs games come to an end, the absence of each injured player raises concerns about each teams strength to win a place in the finals.

Trailing the Pacers 2-1 in their second-round series, the Knicks need all the good news they can get.

Let me put this in a way that even the most ardent Carmelo Anthony apologists - the Melo Kool-Aid junkies who think that his name is cool and that he was born in Brooklyn and is married to someone famous - can fathom it.

That's not how coach Mike Woodson intended to spend Sunday afternoon following an abysmal Game 3 performance that left New York in a 2-1 hole and in a precarious position heading into Tuesday night's game at Indiana.

When the Knicks lost on Saturday night, 82-71, Anthony didn't do nearly enough at Bankers Life Fieldhouse.

The biggest reason why many of us took a three-point halftime deficit as god-sent manna was this: Melo was coming off an impressively efficient first half , and, really, there was no way we were going to slog through another 24 minutes of shit like that again, right? Brick, brick, rim-graze, charge, foul trouble, brick, miss, MAKE, miss, foul, ... (more)

New York, NY, United States - New York Knicks coach Mike Woodson may cut J.R. Smith's minutes in light of his recent shooting woes.

New York Knicks guard J.R. Smith missed shootaround on Saturday and is questionable for Game 3 against the Pacers, according to the team's official public relations Twitter page .

The Post's Steve Serby sat down with Pablo Prigioni, the soon-to-be 36-year-old rookie point guard from Argentina, who in his best broken English describes what it's like to be part this Knicks' title bid .

Amar'e Stoudemire is ready to play again. And that can either be a good or bad thing for the New York Knicks.

He could be an asset if the Knicks use him in a limited way. Specifically, he'd be fine if played ~10 minutes alongside another interior defender while Carmelo Anthony rested.

When the regular season ended, New York Knicks fans had to feel good about where they were with J.R Smith as a legitimate second scoring option next to Carmelo Anthony.

Boomer was very pleased with the effort of his beloved Blueshirts last night at MSG in the Rangers' 4-3 win over the Capitals - and after hearing his voice, it became very clear that Uncle Booms was there rooting them on.
