After a successful offseason rebuilding project, the New York Knicks are an Eastern Conference power once more. However, they'll still only go as far as Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire can carry them.

However, they finally have had a full offseason together, and they finally have some coaching stability as well. No one questions their talents, so what needs to be fixed?
NBA assistant editors Ethan Norof and Joel C. Cordes detail the adjustments that head coach Mike Woodson will have to make, along with the game changes needed from Melo and Amar'e.
