Allan Houston Will Save the Knicks



Allan Houston is expected to announce his comeback with the Knicks in the next 24 hours, a source told 1050 ESPN New York's Andrew Marchand.Houston, 36, said he wants to return to the NBA because he did not leave by choice. In 2005, Houston retired because of an arthritic left knee. He has not played a full NBA season since 2002-03, when he scored a career-high 22.5 points per game. Over the next two years, he only played 70 games.
"It's really like I never got to finish. You ever been cut off in midsentence and never been able to finish what you were saying? It feels like I get to finish now ... Of course I want to win, but this quest to me is more about being able to play again while I still can," Houston said in a recent interview with ESPN The Magazine's Chris Broussard.
Houston said he still believes he can make an impact in the NBA.
"I believe I can still have an impact on the game. A lot of my friends and people are saying, 'You should go for three more years if you feel good!' I'm just thinking about this year right now. If things go like I think they will, playing longer would be something to think about," he said.

Maybe he'll save the Knicks morally.

Can't think of any other way he can save them.

No no Pundit, they'll get Ewing to come out of retirement and limp across the court.

If the Knicks were playing "Around the World" instead of in competitive games -...you may be right. He might not even make the team.

Re: Allan Houston Will Save the Knicks

Houston is older. His knee is reconstructed (I think) so unless his rehab has gone extremely well and the rest did wonders, he'll still be limited. If anything, he'll be a guy who can still shoot the ball.

At least Houston has heart. Can't say the same for guys like Marbury, Richardson, Curry, etc.

Houston is a great guy, no question. But how many shooting guards do they need?
