Seems like he's got everything needed to bounce back. Tons of hoops, special training, etc etcfishmike wrote:nyvector16 wrote:It is incredible how so many forget Amare' was practically a shoe in for MVP for 1/2 a season the year before last.^^^ this, and you look at this career and anytime he's had an injury in a seaon he comes back better.

Actually it's usually the 2nd season after his injury that he has a great year.
Going by the record it makes sense that his game is off in the year he comes back since he isn't able to prepare properly, but in the 2nd year he's able to get his full summer of work in to get back to full strength and put in work on his game as well. I think he's gonna have a big year. |

I'd like Amar'e to continue to evolve. Right now, he's the 3rd most important Knick, and I think most of us thought there'd be a chance he'd be fighting to be the most important. I'd still like to see some occasional minutes with Melo at the 4 and Amar'e at the 5, and that works best with Amar'e having a back-to-the-basket game

He looked really stiff before he got his Epidural Back Treatment. After that he looked much better. |

Not sure what STAT has to do with new Knicks team we will have on the court and with Woodson system...
It will be no place for him to be back to the basket. If he will hit 15-ft around 50% he can be a +, otherwise just waste of space and money. We have Tyson, Camby, and even Kurt, who are all much more efficient players in half-court iso that STAT. I except a lot of water distinguishers being kicked and punched "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, Than are dreamt of in your philosophy." Hamlet

He needs to set screens for melo and be ready to catch and finish.
I like how they use kg, but kg is a center. Let's go Knicks. That's amare
