The whole notion that Amar'e Stoudemire's return would somehow ruin the New York Knicks' chemistry?
It seems like that can be put to bed.
Stoudemire hasn't just fit in to what the Knicks want to do on offense. Lately, he has been a driving force behind it.
That continued on Wednesday as Stoudemire scored 14 points on 7-for-7 shooing in 21 minutes to help the Knicks overwhelm the struggling Orlando Magic.
"He's playing well and we're playing very well off of him," Carmelo Anthony said of Stoudemire, who has scored in double digits in seven straight games. "He's been very aggressive."
With Stoudemire playing so well of late, the Knicks have gotten a glimpse of the trio of Stoudemire, Anthony and Tyson Chandler at its best.
For Anthony, what happened Wednesday night was a validation of sorts.
Since he landed in New York, Carmelo has insisted he and Stoudemire can thrive together. It certainly didn't happen initially, but thanks in part to Raymond Felton's presence, things are finally seemingly coming together....

I am digging the play of STAT as of late and am feeling real good about this team starting to gel now that 95% of the pieces are here (miss Sheed). Between Stats work with the Dream over the summer and his willingness to play off the bench and work on the D this could well be what we were all looking for....a championship squad! I still think to get the chip tho Stat will have to get into the starting rotation. That's how we'll have to match up against the top tier teams.
