NEW YORK -- Bernard King was in town for a reunion of the 1983-84 New York Knicks. He shared plenty of memories of that season -- when New York beat the Detroit Pistons in a memorable first-round series -- and also shared some candid thoughts on current Knicks star Carmelo Anthony.
Anthony has been at the center of drama for much of the season. Team president Phil Jackson leveled direct and indirect criticism at his star forward several times throughout the year, and the Knicks talked to teams about potential Anthony trades before the deadline.
