DENVER -- During his final six seasons in Phoenix, Amar'e Stoudemire's teams averaged 55 wins a season and three times made the Western Conference finals.Welcome to how the other half lives, Amar'e.
After bolting the Suns as a free agent last summer for New York, the star power forward is paying a visit to the slums of the NBA standings. The Knicks are 3-8, and have dropped six straight.
"It hasn't been fun,'' Stoudemire said in an interview with FanHouse while in Denver for Tuesday's 120-118 loss to the Nuggets. "It has not been fun.''
Stoudemire hardly is to the point in which he regrets taking a five-year, $100 million contract with the Knicks, with the deal turned into a sign-and-trade. But it's become quite apparent he had it pretty good in Phoenix.
No, the Suns never were able to make the NBA Finals. But they came close last season, losing Game 5 of the West finals on a buzzer shot by Lakers forward Ron Artest and eventually falling 4-2.
