Basketball Thoughts

The Knicks should be a good team to watch for a few years to come. Amare Stoudemire has joined the organization. If anything, New York Knicks ticketholders would come to Madison Square Garden more because a star basketball player has finally arrived here in the Big Apple. Recently in the NBA, there has been a surge in the change of basketball power especially in the LA Lakers organization. The two-time defending champion Lakers strengthened their bench by adding Steve Blake, a backup point guard for Derek Fisher, and two veterans, Matt Barnes, a backup small forward, and Theo Ratliff, a backup center. If anything, I think that players who are playing in the Western Conference, if they want to win ball games, they have to move to the East Coast. So that means Carmelo Anthony, you want out of your contract, right? You can choose to go to New York and join Amare Stoudemire. Chris Paul is having a miserable time in New Orleans. I think he needs a change of scenery. I think the perfect destination for CP3 is New York. You would have a triumvirate like Miami's trio of Chris Bosh, Lebron James, and Dwyane Wade in New York with Carmelo Anthony, Chris Paul, and Amare Stoudemire. I think the Knicks could really use the star attention, because it's New York City and it's at Madison Square Garden. I think that Jason Williams should have joined the Miami Heat, because it is a Florida beach party. Florida alumni basketball college mates Udonis Haslem and Mike Miller have reunited in South Beach. Williams played college ball in Florida as did Haslem and Miller. Instead, Williams opted to re-sign with the Orlando Magic.
