Amare Stoudemire gets paid to attack the glass. But not like this.

After the Knicks' 104-94 loss in Miami on Tuesday, Stoudemire took his aggression out on a fire extinguisher, according to ESPN's Jared Zwerling.

Stoudemire cut up his left hand and apparently needed stitches after punching the glass casing of a fire extinguisher inside the Knicks locker room.

League sources indicated that it's likely Stoudemire will miss Game 3 and could even miss the rest of the series, according to a tweet from ESPN's Ian Begley.

Stoudemire had a solid night in the Game 2 loss, finishing with 18 points and seven rebounds as New York went down 2-0 in the opening-round series. But apparently the loss enraged Amare enough to express his aggression outwardly.

Take a look at the photo of Amare leaving the American Airlines arena with a large bandage around his hand and a sling around his arm.
