Amar'e Stoudemire admitted yesterday the difficult decision it was to leave Phoenix and Steve Nash and come to the Knicks. It could turn into the wrong decision if his new point guard, Raymond Felton, doesn't start getting it.

"It was a great opportunity for both of us," Stoudemire said of his tenure with Nash. "We worked well with each other. We complemented each other's games. It was a great friendship and relationship. It was a tough decision to leave Phoenix."

Asked if he could develop the same bond with Felton, Stoudemire spoke cautiously. "I don't want to put extra pressure on Raymond," Stoudemire said. "He works extremely hard at his craft. Raymond's special in his own different way. We're looking for him to reach his full potential."
