<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Antonio McDyess walked off the Knicks practice court this morning and said the words New York basketball fans have wanted to hear since he re-injured his knee in last year's preseason. "Tonight is the night," McDyess said. "I'm definitely excited. Before the game, I'm probably going to have butterflies." McDyess is expected to play his first game as a Knick tonight against the Detroit Pistons. McDyess, acquired from Denver in a 2002 draft-day trade, is recovering from three surgeries on his left knee in the last 19 months, most recently April 22. McDyess, said coach Don Chaney, will play about six minutes in each half. Rather than having him start, the plan is to bring him in with about three minutes left in the third quarter. McDyess said he made the decision last night. The Knicks expect to put rookie Michael Sweetney on the injury list to make room for McDyess </div> Full Story Knicks fans must be excited :mrgreen: .
This is a start. Assuming he contributes I'll be very happy. I just hope he actually stays healthy this time. We need him for more than 5 games.
