Knicks' Carmelo Day-To-Day With 'Slight' Ankle Sprain; D'Antoni Booed
The pregame boos had barely finished, and Mike D'Antoni suddenly had much bigger problems. But by the time it was over, the victorious Knicks had a problem of their own.
The pregame boos had barely finished, and Mike D'Antoni suddenly had much bigger problems. But by the time it was over, the victorious Knicks had a problem of their own.
Carmelo Anthony scored 22 of his 30 points in the first period, and the Knicks held on after he departed with a sprained left ankle to beat the Lakers 116-107 in coach Mike D'Antoni's return to Madison Square Garden.
Was Mike D'Antoni's tenure ultimately a failure? Yes. Does he deserve hate and vitriol from Knicks fans? No way.
Things are going great for Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks. As for the Lakers and former New York coach Mike D'Antoni? Not so much.
Gregg Popovich only has one job: winning a championship.
Mike D'Antoni admitted he regretted leaving the Phoenix Suns for the Knicks in 2008.
Forget the 24-hour rule -- I want to file a missing person report. It seems that Nets backup center Andray Blatche inexplicably disappeared sometime early in the fourth quarter of Tuesday night's 95-90 loss to the Lakers in Los Angeles.

Dwight Howard doesn't care if he's severed his relationship with Brooklyn Nets' star Deron Williams.
Dwight who? If the Nets keep getting production at center, it won't be long before I forget the whole Howard soap opera.
The benefits gained from the Lakers hiring Mike D'Antoni are endless.
Now that the dust has settled, the Lakers' decision to hire Mike D'Antoni over proven winner Phil Jackson isn't any less shocking.
In New York it was all praise, even though Mike D'Antoni resigned last March after failing to win a playoff game in four years with the Knicks.
D'Antoni's reputation as an innovative coach wasn't helped by his tenure in New York. Now he has a chance to rebound in Los Angeles.
The Lakers handed Mike Brown the pink slip after 5 games and will undoubtedly turn to Phil Jackson as their first choice replacement.
I have the Lakers over the Heat in six games in the NBA Finals. This is my nightmare scenario, but I think the Lakers have a better roster top to bottom. I can't imagine the Heat will be able to find an answer for Howard down low.
"I just say to him, 'You're Alex Rodriguez,'" Bryant said. "'You're A-Rod. You're one of the best to ever do it.' I think sometimes he kind of forgets that and wants to try to do the right thing all the time."
"If you want to go to flash and dunking and the pick-and-roll, you gotta go with Dwight Howard," Shaq said. "But me, I'm going with Andrew Bynum and which Lopez? Brook. Brook Lopez."
For better or for worse, the Knicks' window to win is now and it's up to Carmelo Anthony to lead them.
In the end, after two years of rumors, speculation and negotiations, the Nets failed to land the big man.
Bryant was asked about the Knicks' Christmas matchup against the Lakers next season while in London, and he couldn't help but respond with some trash talk against Olympic teammate Carmelo Anthony and the Knicks.
Let's face it: keeping Jeremy Lin was an on-court and financial gamble the Knicks couldn't risk taking.
Lin became a Houston Rocket on Tuesday night when the Knicks refused to match a three-year deal worth about $25 million, ending a brief but amazing run as New York's point guard.
Newest recruit Steve Nash makes the universally hated Lakers instantly more-likeable.
The Dwight Howard trade saga seems to be over, at least for now. The Brooklyn Nets have moved on to their backup plan, reaching an agreement on a reported four-year deal with Brook Lopez.
