A three game losing streak and giving up 129 points to the Suns would probably make any coach stress defense in the following practice, but for the Knicks this is news worthy.

The loss to Phoenix had Amar'e Stoudemire fuming as he criticized the team's lack of enthusiasm and energy, particularly on defense. It was also why D'Antoni spent most of Tuesday's two-hour practice focusing on defense.
"Nobody takes anything negative from what (Amar'e) says, I say, or Coach would say," Raymond Felton said. "Anything (Amar'e) says he would say to our face."
"Everybody gets upset," he said. "I get upset; (Amar'e) gets upset, the team gets upset. Everybody has got to play better defense. We know what we need to do. I'm encouraged by how they responded in practice."
