08:08 AM ET 12.16 | If you want to play for the Knicks, Amar'e Stoudemire prefers that you are healthy. If anything, the power forward has only one prerequisite of any player the Knicks add via free agency: Be in shape and ready to play. So despite mutual interest between guard Baron Davis and the front office, Stoudemire suggested that his preference would be to pass on the 32-year-old, who has a lower- back injury. "This guy's out for eight to 10 weeks, he's not our concern at all," Stoudemire said. ... [The] next notable free-agent target for the Knicks is veteran sharpshooter Michael Redd. Though he is well-known for his shooting prowess, there is some risk with Redd because he is attempting to come back from major knee surgery.

For 2.5 million, why not? The Knicks have made worse signings (Jerome James anyone?). He would be a low risk high upside addition to the Knicks' bench. Sign him up!

He's an expert on the subject.
He obviously understands the extent of Davis' condition and doesn't want the bum anywhere near him.

Didn't Amare just announce that he would be taking some games off to rest his knees? He wants to be the only one on the team taking time off ...

For one year at $2.5 million, why not take a shot on Michael Redd? Like someone said earlier (my bad on not quoting you) the Knicks definitely have made worse signings in their history.
