Jeremy: Melo, Amar’e returns not chemistry problem
It is the elephant in the Knicks locker room.
What happens to their season-high five-game winning streak, what happens to “
Linsanity,’’ what happens to their perfect team chemistry created by
minimum-wage role players when the Knicks’ two superstars return tomorrow in
Toronto.
Jeremy Lin, the Knicks’ new point-guard phenomenon, said there is no reason
to worry in the long term, and he believes the team’s level of play with Amar
’e Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony could be “crazy.’’
The fairy-tale plot thickens as Stoudemire, after taking a week to mourn his
brother’s death, returns to practice in Westchester today and is expected to
suit up in Toronto if he is mentally
總之 LIN說這將會是瘋狂的 他看起來是沒那麼擔心這問題@@
下面還有一些人
Anthony, who has been sidelined because of a groin strain, was reevaluated
yesterday, though the team gave no update on his status for tomorrow’s game.
It’s been a week since he suffered the injury, when the timetable for his
return was set at 1-to-2 weeks.
“They’re our teammates,’’ Lin said late Saturday night in Minnesota after
his go-ahead free throw with 4.9 seconds left extended the hysteria
surrounding the Knicks. “When they come back, I don’t know how long or even
if there will be an adjustment period, but I think obviously they’re two of
the top players in the league. We just have to find a way to quickly come
together and ride this momentum.
“We all come together, it’s crazy. We don’t know how good we’ll be. The
potential is there.’’
There are causes for concern as the Knicks’ stars, who combine to make $33
million this season, reenter the revised picture. The last four games — Lin’
s first NBA starts — have occurred without either of them on the floor,
except for Anthony playing the first six minutes of Monday’s victory over
the Jazz before getting hurt.
In Stoudemire’s case, he got off to a poor start to the season, lacking his
customary explosiveness, and coaches left him off the All-Star team. How will
his head be upon his return from a family tragedy?
On the flip side, Stoudemire could fit splendidly with Lin on the
pick-and-roll, just like he soared during his speedball years in Phoenix with
point guard Steve Nash and the first half of last season with Raymond Felton.
Before Lin’s five games of greatness, there were few pick-and-roll
opportunities for Stoudemire and he must share them with raging-hot center
Tyson Chandler.
“We can’t wait to see [Amar’e],’’ Lin said. “We miss him a lot.
Obviously it’s tough. I wish he didn’t have to go through [this]. When he
gets back, we’ll be excited to see him. Hopefully playing basketball, he’ll
get his mind off everything.’’
The bigger concern is Anthony, whose shooting percentage of 39 percent and
penchant for taking too many shots out of the offensive flow were chief
reasons for the Knicks’ 7-15 start.
When he went down, it was Melo’s team. Now it is Lin’s, The undrafted
Harvard point guard has emerged as the key ingredient missing from coach Mike
D’Antoni’s offense.
It was a blessing in disguise that Lin — like Nash — could take command of
the team without worrying about superstar egos. Anthony never has been second
fiddle.
“It is what it is,” D’Antoni. “[Lin] took it and we’ll go forward. I’ll
let you write articles about that.’’
Forward Steve Novak, a 3-point shooting machine under the Lin Dynasty, said
Anthony has told him he can’t wait to play in the new culture. Indeed, the
pressure is on Anthony to adjust.
“We can’t wait to have those guys back,’’ Novak said. “We know obviously
how good those guys are. There’s an energy that’s contagious. Those guys
had never played with Jeremy, but Melo is champing at the bit, saying, ‘I can
’t wait to be back. I can’t wait to be back.’ The biggest thing he can
bring is his energy and playing together.’’
Stoudemire and Anthony’s presence will mean less playing time for Novak. Lin
’s penetrating game won’t change. He won’t need to score as much from the
outside with Anthony making hay.
When Anthony returns to his role as one of the league’s finest clutch
scorers in the final two minutes, he will have more room to work as Lin draws
defenders on his basket attacks.
“I can’t wait to get them back,’’ D’Antoni said. “We should go up to
another level. No doubt about it.’’
There is some doubt, but Chandler said he is more worried about Stoudemire’s
mental health.
“I’m more concerned about Amar’e and his mindset,’’ Chandler said. “
With loss of a family member, and a brother at that, the basketball I couldn’
t care less about. I’m more concerned how he’ll react, how he’s feeling,
his mindset. We’re brothers and have to be there for him.’’
The “Linderella Story’’ hits its first conflict.
