GREENBURGH, N.Y. - Carmelo Anthony knows the easiest path to a title probably isnt in New York.Had he gone to play with Derrick Rose in Chicago, or joined Dwight Howard and James Harden in Houston, he could have gone into this season with a real chance at a championship. Yet when it came time to decide who he wanted to be with, Anthony passed on those partnerships and chose Phil Jackson and Derek Fisher.He believes they will fix the Knicks and wants to be a part of it a€” even if it doesnt happen right away.So that right there just goes to show you that it wasnt all about running and jumping ship and trying to get something in the immediate future, Anthony said Monday. Im willing to be patient. Now how long Im willing to be patient? I cant really tell you that, but Im willing to be patient. Im willing to take risks, Im willing to take that chance. And for me to just get up and leave like that, now that I look back at it, leading up to my decision, I wouldnt have felt right within myself.Anthony could have left as a free agent, and there were plenty of reasons to go. The Knicks went 37-45 last season, the first time Anthony had missed the playoffs in his 11 NBA seasons, and salary cap woes left little ability to upgrade the team quickly. He met with the Bulls, Rockets, Mavericks and Lakers in July, and all of them offered better cores, or at least had another superstar in place. The Knicks couldnt offer much beyond the highest possible salary.From a basketball standpoint it probably wouldve been maybe the greatest thing to do, but for me personally I wouldnt have felt right with myself, Anthony said, knowing that I wanted to come here, I kind of forced my way here to New York and I have some unfinished business to take care of.He will get started on that Tuesday at West Point, when the Knicks open their first training camp under rookie coach Fisher. Anthony, appearing confident and at ease, said he feels great physically after some off-season weight loss and ready to fill his role within the triangle offence, having spoken to Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant about it.My big thing is I want to embrace what Phil and what Derek is doing. I want them to know that Im in, Im embracing this challenge, Anthony said. I know from a being a student of the game and watching, and knowing the history, that it will work. It takes time, nothing happens overnight, but it will work.That could depend on how much Anthonys teammates contribute. He was at times the Knicks only offence last season, when his 27.4 points per game nearly doubled runner-up J.R. Smiths 14.5.I think we have to make him feel the most comfortable possible out there with all of us. Try to make him not have to force it every time, new point guard Jose Calderon said. We cannot just let him do everything, so weve got to be able and ready to help him in every position so its easier for him.Smith could bounce back after saying he didnt feel fully healthy until around the final 30 games last season following knee surgery. Same with Andrea Bargnani, the former No. 1 overall pick who was limited to just 42 games by an elbow injury after being acquired from Toronto.Last year was disappointing for everybody, so everybody wants to come back this year stronger and have a very good season, Bargnani said.The Knicks nearly made the post-season even during their miserable 2013-14, finishing a game behind eighth-place Atlanta in the Eastern Conference. Jackson thinks it will take more victories to secure a spot this season in what appears to be a stronger East.As far as putting a number on games, on wins this season, I cant tell you how many wins were going to have, Anthony said. I mean, we havent even opened our first practice yet. But I will tell you that we will have a better season than what we had last year. M.J. Stewart Buccaneers Jersey .

Ryan Jensen Jersey . -- Jacksonville Jaguars rookie receiver Marqise Lee has agreed to terms on a four-year contract worth more than $5 million.St. Louis, MO (SportsNetwork.com) - Chandler Catanzaro made four field goals as the Arizona Cardinals moved closer to clinching a playoff spot despite not scoring a touchdown in a 12-6 victory over the St. Louis Rams on Thursday. The Cardinals (11-3) now own the leagues best record and can secure a postseason berth this Sunday as long as the Dallas-Philadelphia game doesnt end in a tie. Arizona can also clinch with a Detroit loss against Minnesota and a Green Bay win or tie in Buffalo. Arizona, however, suffered another injury at quarterback at the hands of the St. Louis defense as Drew Stanton left the game with a right knee injury in the third quarter. He was carted off to the locker room and did not return. Stanton, who was 12-of-20 for 109 yards before exiting, started his fifth straight game after Carson Palmer tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in a 31-14 win over the Rams on Nov. 9. Ryan Lindley took over for Stanton and completed four of his 10 passes for 30 yards. Larry Fitzgerald (31 years, 102 days old) became the youngest player in NFL history to compile 900 career receptions after finishing with seven catches for 30 yards. Im glad we dont have to play the Rams anymore, Fitzgerald said. Both times we played them they banged our quarterbacks up. Arizonas 11 wins ties a franchise record which was also set in 1925 and 1948. Shaun Hill threw for 229 yards and an interception on 20-of-39 passing and Stedman Bailey caught five passes for 74 yards for the Rams (6-8). St. Louis, which was coming off back-to-back shutouts of Washington and Oakland, turned in another solid defensive performance, limiting the Cardinals to just 274 total yards and 13 first downs, but lacked a spark on offense. Its hard to win football games when you dont score touchdowns, Rams head coach Jeff Fisher said. The difference in this game was our inability to get the ball in the end zone. The Rams finally converted a second-half first down as Bailey hauled in a 38- yard strike down to Arizonas 39 with 10:10 to play in the fourth quarter. St. Louis took the ball down to the 1-yard line, but Hill threw the ball away on third down and Greg Zuerlein was true from 19 yards out for a 12-6 game with 6:07 remainiing.dddddddddddd Kenny Britt caught a 22-yard dart between two defenders and Jared Cooks 10- yard catch moved the Rams to midfield. Hill hit Bailey for a 7-yard gain on second down, but his pass intended for Chris Givens on fourth down was knocked down by Jerraud Powers and the Cardinals took over on downs. After Arizona punted on its initial drive, Benjamin Cunninghams 19-yard catch moved the Rams into their opponents territory and Zuerlein kicked a 24-yard field goal for an early St. Louis lead. Frostee Rucker knocked the ball loose from Tre Mason and Larry Foote pounced on it to give Arizona the ball with 1:57 to play in the first quarter. Kerwynn Williams picked up a first down on an 11-yard run. The drive stalled at the Rams 5, but Catanzaro knotted the score with a 23-yarder. Michael Floyd outran Rams cornerback Janoris Jenkins down the left sideline and made a 49-yard grab to set up an eventual 44-yard Catanzaro make for a 6-3 lead with 8:25 to play in the first half. The Rams punted the ball away on their first possession of the third quarter to Tedd Ginn Jr., who navigated his way down the field 42 yards to the St. Louis 42. Arizona, however, couldnt capitalize and gained just two yards before punting. On their next drive, the Cardinals benefited from a 36-yard pass interference penalty that moved them to their opponents 28. Two plays later, Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald sacked Stanton for an 8-yard loss. The Cardinals signal-caller stayed on the ground before hobbling off the field. Lindley took over and delivered a 6-yard pass to Floyd, which helped set up Catanzaros 51-yard field goal midway through the third. Arizona went up 12-3 when Catanzaro nailed a 46-yarder with 10:48 to play. Game Notes It was Arizonas first win without a touchdown since a 12-7 triumph over Tampa Bay on Jan. 2, 2005 ...
