    amare big brother dies in car accident


    may not play or head may not be in game


    Hazell Stoudemire, the older brother of NBA star Amare Stoudemire, died early this morning in a car accident in Florida … TMZ has learned.

    The accident happened on Route 27 in Lake Wales. According to the Florida Highway Patrol, Stoudemire was driving at a “high rate of speed” when he collided with the rear of a tractor trailer.

    He died on the scene.

    The Florida Highway Patrol says Stoudemire was not wearing a seat belt at the time of the accident and they are unsure if alcohol was a factor.

    So, lemme get this straight.. 60+% is on Utah and the line drops a full point from -4 to -3? This cannot only be about Amare being out. Vegas wants you to take NY.

    Take Utah.

    I thought it could be about a 2 position win with Amare but IDK though because I don't like the Jazz traveling across country to play. No play to me.

    That's the difference between a fan and the books. You see how he DID and play off of it. The books know what hes capable of. He's definitely worth a point even if he hasnt been playing up to your standards lately

    Emotions give the books there edge.

    people usually get burned for pounding a team when the opposing team has a star out.. stoud lost a brother and the team rallies for him most likely, melo goes in? and people prob still think j lin sucks so jazz pounding is in full effect.

    True! Especially about J Lin. He wiped out D. Williams last game. He is probably a starter tonight and may have at least 30 min or plus. People usually underestimate him but he may become a key player for Knicks in the near future since the other guards doesn't match literally with D'Antoni's game plan.

    Also NYC has a good aura these days and Utah is like never played on the road this season. Knicks seems the right play here IMO.
