I was in New York City last night for the game and Madison Square Garden was packed and Amar'e Stoudemire was there...I think it's really important because their support definitely carries over. I know in Phoenix, the Suns staff, the coaches, the players, they were always at our games. And I think it's good to have interaction with them.

But I think the guys that show up, it's because they want to be there.
