Amar'e Stoudemire has admitted that he is becoming frustrated with the lack of time he is spending on the court this season.
The New York Knicks have placed a limit of 10 minutes on Stoudemire's playing time this campaign and the 31-year-old claims that he is not being given the opportunity to prove his quality.
"It's making me look like my game is gone or that I don't have game anymore because when you play five minutes, it's just tough to really get in a rhythm," Stoudemire told reporters.
"It's tough to play five minutes and expect to be great in five minutes. It's almost impossible.
"By the time you get up and down and get adjusted to the speed of the game, it's already three minutes, and then in two minutes you're out of there."
Stoudemire had three knee procedures in a 10-month span, the most recent coming in July.
