I guess Dallas should have brought Dirk from the bench when he was stinking it up early in the season too. Crazy how some Knicks fans can disrespect perennial allstars like Melo and Amare consistently.
think it's the same reason Lin is so popular - we really do like rooting for the underdog here. which is cool, but Amar'e and Melo still have lots to offer this team.
people might forget that Carlos Boozer couldn't even conceive of stopping Amar'e about a week and a half ago. it was pre-Lin, so it feels like another lifetime, but the right matchup and Amar'e can single-handedly win a game for us, still.
let's let Lin and Amar'e develop some ESP on the PnR and see what happens. though i do like the idea of keeping Amar'e at around 30 minutes if possible, to keep him fresh. Jeffries has earned 24 minutes a night backing up Tyson and Amar'e and Melo.
