When big-market teams sign big-time players, the fans and everyone involved with the team want production. However, that's not always the case.

This week, Stoudemire was cleared to play at least 30 minutes in a game coming after his delayed start to the season due to injury. As a Knicks fan, that's not exactly the type of headline you want to read in the middle of the season about a player your favorite team signed to a five-year, $99.7 million contract.
