NEW YORK — Amar’e Stoudemire is going “hunting” for LeBron and D-Wade.
Or presumably for their Eastern Conference championship.
So he said to teammate Josh “Jorts” Harrellson in half-joking fashion after the Knicks beat the Nets 88-82 in exhibition action Wednesday at MSG.
The following interaction in front of their respective lockers was prompted when a reporter asked Harrellson if he’d found a place around the area to go hunting yet.
Harrellson to Stoudemire: “What’s up, fresh?”
Stoudemire: “What’s up, smooth?
Harrellson: “Where we gonna hunt?”
Stoudemire: “We’re gonna hunt in South Florida. You know what we’re gonna hunt down there, right? We’re gonna hunt LeBron and D-Wade. I got the rifle, man.”
The hunt begins Christmas Day when the Knicks host the Celtics in the regular-season opener at MSG.
