After a less than stellar 2-3 start by the New York Knicks, the coaching staff and the team's fans are left only to ponder what may be the biggest hurdles ahead.The Knicks have struggled to score the basketball through their first five games, averaging only 93 points. Though the campaign is still young, that low number is a far cry from the much higher 106.5 points the team averaged last season.A major reason as to why the Knicks have not been producing is because offensive juggernaut Amar'e Stoudemire has sat out the past two games with an ankle injury, and is still noted as a game-time decision for tonight's Bobcats-Knicks matchup at the Garden.Even so, when he has hit the hardwood, Stoudemire has not been his usual self, only averaging 17.3 points on 40% shooting the field. Though he has struggled, it may not be solely the big man's fault that he has not found his offensive flow.The team as a whole has had difficulty meshing as a cohesive unit, struggling to get t...

Baron Davis’s Dick Is Not Doing So Well
(Source) The Charlotte Observer issued what is surely its most embarrassing correction ever — and certainly its most delicate — after a typo resulted in reporting a rather unique injury to New York Knicks guard Baron Davis.
Let’s just say a misplaced letter turned a herniated disc into something somewhat more sensitive — and no doubt substantially more painful.
As for...
Carmelo Anthony on the Knicks: ‘It Can’t Get No Worse Than This’
by Marcel Mutoni / @marcel_mutoni
Things were supposed to be different this time around for the New York Knickerbockers.
Ownership twisted Mike D’Antoni’s arm into hiring a defensively-minded assistant coach in Mike Woodson, the team splurged on defensive specialist center Tyson Chandler, Carmelo Anthony and Amar’e Stoudemire promised to defend with more tenacity...
Iman Shumpert May Get Start Friday vs. Wizards
The New York Knicks will try to end their two game losing streak Friday versus the Washington Wizards, and that may also be the game Iman Shumpert makes his first career NBA start.
Mike D’Antoni told reporters that he may put the rookie Shumpert in the starting five, which will immediately give the Knicks more energy and effort at the shooting guard position.
“Everything...
Charlotte Observer Explains How It Reported That Baron Davis Had A Herniated Di*k
A grand time was had by one and all on Wednesday and many guffaws were guffawed when it was discovered that in a print version of Charlotte Observer‘s “Bobcats Gameday” notes report that New York Knicks point guard Baron Davis’ herniated disc injury was erroneously (and hilariously) reported as a herniated, um, man part. Thankfully [...]
Knicks 85, Raptors 90
It was the second game of the season the Knicks were without superstar Amar’e Stoudemire and few thought the Knicks could show up like they did in Sacramento on Saturday night. Critics say that Melo and Amar’e don’t gel together well on the court and some stats could prove that right as the two often play better when the other is on the bench...
Herniated what? Poor Baron Davis

This is a typo, but it is very funny. Who doesn't like to laugh. Best part was Baron Davis' tweet about it.
"@Baron_Davis: Thanks Charlotte Observer for announcing my new injury. Still able to workout with it. Lol"
Bobcats bounce back against Knicks
NEW YORK (AP) -- Boris Diaw rebounded from a dreadful game a night earlier with a season-high 27 points, and the Charlotte Bobcats snapped a four-game losing streak with a 118-110 victory Wednesday over the New York Knicks.
Gerald Henderson added 24 for the Bobcats, who capped a three-game road trip by winning for the first time since their opener. Reserve Byron Mullens scored 16...
D’Antoni: ‘Confusion’ on ill-fated shot vs. Raptors
Mike D’Antoni said yesterday that on the Knicks’ failed potential game-tying play in Monday’s loss to the Raptors — a Carmelo Anthony three-pointer — Plan A was to go for two points and Plan B was to shoot a three.The Knicks were trailing the Raptors 88-85 when they came...
Pardon My French

French Montana is New York hip-hop right now. The Bronx native made a name for himself with a slew of mixtapes and underground DVDs, quickly becoming one of the brightest stars on the NYC underground scene. After a few additions to his team, namely Deb Antney, Rick Ross and Diddy, French is now one of the fastest rising stars in hip-hop, period. His current hit ...

Amar’e Stoudemire hurting as Knicks suffer growing pains
It would be at least one more game without Amar'e Stoudemire, another day when Mike D’Antoni would not find out whether Stoudemire, Carmelo Anthony and Tyson Chandler are made for each other.
