Lin and Carmelo Anthony were playing together for the first time since an outbreak of Linsanity engulfed the New York Knicks and pro basketball and the results were decidedly mixed — because Deron Williams and the New Jersey Nets were men on a mission. ...

Anthony made his long-awaited return to the Knicks Monday but his partnership with Jeremy Lin failed to fire as New York fell 100-92 to the New Jersey Nets. Lin had launched his sensational run with the Knicks by coming off the bench on Feb. 4 to score...
Miami on Thursday. Going into the All-Star Break three games under .500 and facing that schedule, the pressure will immediately be on everybody. And if we've learned anything from the Linsanity run, it's that the Knicks are at their best when everything...
He racked up a near triple-double with 21, 9 and 7. Of course, he only had three turnovers this time, way below his recent average. As Stan Marsh’s karate teacher would say: he racks disaprine.[1] Now, like Deron Williams, I am relatively bored by the...

Really, it’s all he could do. We dozen or so scribes filed towards the locker room, by then occupied by but two Knicks: Josh Harrellson -- whose third quarter wrist injury would result in the Knicks making the most fateful D-League call up in league...
While Knicks fans were anxious to see whether the miracle of Jeremy Lin was just a fluke and how he and Carmelo Anthony would work together, a certain New Jersey Nets co-owner and his wife took their seats courtside and watched their team win. Well, to...
Anthony came back from injury last night, and the Knicks immediately lost to the horrible Nets 100-92 at home. Lin still ran the team. The big worry was that Melo would hijack the offense and run isolation plays from the wing like he did before Lin...

Everyone was worried about how Anthony’s iso-centric game would mesh with the wheeling-and-dealing Lin-led Knicks, and now, following that 100-92 loss to the Nets last night, we can all officially freak out (Hooray! Hooray?). But, just as the praise...
Lin began his remarkable run against New Jersey, but Williams and the Nets were geared up this time for him and Carmelo Anthony, who returned to the Knicks lineup after missing seven games with a strained right groin. "I don't really watch too many...
YORK - Carmelo Anthony had mostly been a bystander as Jeremy Lin went from the end of the Knicks' bench to the biggest story in sports. New York won eight of nine games with Lin leading the way, and Melo nursing an injury that kept him out of action for...
Pargo, who finished with 19 points, mostly in garbage time. Think New Jersey had this one circled on the schedule? With their local rivals getting all the pub recently due to Linsanity (which began against them), the Nets came in on a mission—to beat...
While some college basketball fans would probably have Anthony Davis in the top spot, I chose Robinson as the #1 selection this month essentially because he means more to his Jayhawks squad than any other team in the country. Seriously, just how good...
The major storyline for the home team was one of New York's first games as a nearly-whole squad. Though several bench players were missing, the Knicks had Carmelo Anthony back in the starting lineup, Baron Davis making his debut off the bench, and J.R....
85-89 to the very bad but hotter as of late New Orleans Hornets squad, the Knicks were able to bounce back with what looked like a statement victory 104-97 on national television against the reigning NBA champion Dallas Mavericks. The Knicks would take...
This is no secret, it’s been this way from the beginning of the franchise’s existence nearly 70 years ago at this point. So with Linsanity still running amok at Madison Square Garden, in comes free agent shooting guard J.R. Smith on Sunday, followed by...
The rest of his Hornets teammates fared little better as New Orleans tumbled to 7-24 with the loss. 4. OJ Mayo-Mem: Mayo missed all 6 of his threes and finished 3-12 overall for just 6 points with a steal, 3 assists, and 4 rebounds. 5. Carmelo...
Carmelo Kiyan Anthony (born May 29, 1984) is an American professional basketball player for the Denver Nuggets, of the National Basketball Association. As a freshman in college, Anthony led Syracuse University to a 30–5 record and the school's first NCAA championship in men's basketball in 2003. He was named the Most Outstanding Player (MOP) of...

With news of Chris Paul possibly being traded to New York from the New Orleans Hornets, ticket prices are only expected to climb. Paul's addition to a lineup already boasting Amare Stoudemire and Carmelo Anthony could easily make Knicks tickets the most demanded across the NBA.
It seems like we can't shoot the ball in the ocean right now
Supply meeting demand. Welcoming it, even. An ingenious way for players to have games — and a sense of some control of their lives — without the League. What LeBron James, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony and Chris Paul are doing is many things: honorably charitable. A brilliant PR move. Very business-savvy...
We gave Dwight different looks. Sometimes we doubled, sometimes we didn't ... The guys made threes they weren't supposed to—Ryan Anderson, to make [seven] out of 13 threes, that's a lot. When you have guys like Ryan Anderson scoring 30 points, there's just no way you're going to beat them.
I couldn't really control the ball. So a lot of my shots were long, flat
I don't know what is it. We just have to get out that slump, that shooting slump. We've got to start making shots
We gave Dwight different looks, sometimes we doubled, sometimes we didn't
We're not playing with a high level of confidence right now
We talked the whole summer
As far as me recruiting Chris Paul, no, not at all. We're very close friends (but) that's something I'll leave to him and his family. I told him, 'Just make the best decision for you and your family.'
We're very close friends. I'm pretty sure you guys saw him out here in New York, a lot
I'm not involved in that process. No way
One thing I did tell him was, 'Just make the best decision for you and your family.' He responded back that he knew ... he saw what I went through last year
We had a short run last year when I came here to New York and now we get a training camp together and we get time to jell
I think it’s been a long process ... We’ve been dealing with the lockout for a long time now, and for it to finally come to an end and get basketball back, get the fans back, excited, to watching basketball — we’re all excited to be out there.
We had a short run last year
These guys are not even from around here, they don’t even play here, but they came back to somebody else’s community to give back, and I think that should be the topic of discussion today
My heart goes out to the families. I have no comment about the Fine situation or the Boeheim situation ... That's a sensitive situation, a sensitive topic right now that I don't even want to go into.
We had a short run last year when I came here to New York. And now we get a training camp together, we get some time to gel
I’m just glad I can be part of something ... When I’m dead and gone, the Melo Rule will still be here. I’m just excited that they named a rule after me.
When they shoot the ball, I’ve been working with Coach Hopkins to get in a better position to get a rebound and it’s paying off ... When they shoot the ball, sometimes I just stand underneath the basket. And I need to get in a better position so that the guy is not going to block me out. And I still hav...
I have a lot of energy for the game. I have a lot of passion for the game ... And when I bring that, I do a good job on defense, I get rebounds, I block shots. And when that happens, that’s great.
