Amare Stoudemire is a no-brainer Hall of Famer. Saturday, that became official.
He is a five-time All-NBA player, six-time All-Star and the 2003 Rookie of the Year who averaged 18.9 points and 7.8 rebounds a game over 14 NBA seasons. He, along with fellow inductee Mike D’Antoni, was at the heart of the seven-seconds-or-less Phoenix Suns that changed the NBA game and put everyone on the path to the modern game.

Stoudemire is also a legendary Knick.
At the podium Saturday night, he talked about how he started on the path to here.
And what it took along the way.
Stoudemire joins Steve Nash and now Mike D’Antoni from those Suns in the Hall.
