The Return Of The New York Knicks.

o.4 seconds left and the Knicks have the ball; the score is 118-116 with the Knicks trailing behind the defending Eastern Conference Champions, the Boston Celtics.

The ball is inbounded to an anxious Amare Stoudemire who lunges a prayer in the air from beyond the 3 point line-the ball arcs high and drops directly into the hoop as if it were effortlessly... the buzzer sounds and the New Yorks win the game.

...or have they?

*Amare Stoudemire's questioned 3 pointer*




Upon review, it appears that Stoudemire did not release the ball in time... the Boston Celtics win the game, stunning a New York crowd but not the team of which the city cheered for; the Knicks players walk of the court with their head held high.

This was just one of many games from a surprising team this season; lead by the explosive Amare Stoudemire and an UNC alum whose finally found his place in the league [Raymond Felton], the Knicks are stunning crowds night after night . This is really something to hear as the team is one of the NBA's most storied franchises [with the likes of the Lakers, Celtics, and Bulls] and as Paul pierce stated in the post game interview "they have arrived".

Now the question remains; will the team make it to the Playoffs? At this rate they will...

...let's see how this season's story ends though.
