08:01 AM ET 12.06 | Without Carmelo Anthony on the floor, J. R. Smith was left to provide New York's buzzer-beater Wednesday against the Bobcats. Anthony, who scored a team-high 23 points (3 in the second half), cut the middle finger on his left hand when he dived onto the Knicks' bench to chase a loose ball after a Smith block with 2 minutes 10 seconds left. Anthony needed five stitches to close a deep gash. Coach Mike Woodson said he believed Anthony would play Thursday, but Anthony hedged. "I want to play against Miami," Anthony said. "But at the end of the day I've got to do what's right for my finger with the deep cut that it is. So we'll see. Talk to the doc tomorrow, see how it feels. I think it's just a matter of being able to feel the basketball."

Not sure who you are talking to but Melo is a good player...his problem is defense. If he will play harder on both ends, he could be a real beast.
The test for the Knicks will be merging Amare when he comes back.
I think NY is a better team without him.
Tonights Heat/Knicks game will be fun to watch. Glad to see the Knicks relevant again because those old Heat/Knick battles were awesome.
