Anthony was getting his sore right shoulder evaluated Tuesday morning and coach Mike Woodson says the Knicks leading scorer "probably wont" play against the Nets. The Knicks end their season at home Wednesday against Toronto. Wooodson says his preference is to shut Anthony down unless Anthony asks to play, and even then Woodson says that "Im going to tell him Im not going to play him.dddddddddddd Thats what Im going to do." Anthony is missing the playoffs for the first time in his 11-year career. He has said he plans to become a free agent in July. Woodson also will decide before the game if Amare Stoudemire will play.
