I'm not looking forward to the lottery. We basically already know the outcome and Knicks are never lucky so why bother?

We either getting the 7th or 8th pick

Since preseason for a lot of these cats. :lol:
Those last 70 seconds, Randle in a nut shell.

Awful 2 for 1 3PT attempt when we are up 2
Doesn’t close out on Sabonis --> open 3
Takes another side step off balance 3

We got sucked into the Randle vortex where all good feelings go to die.

I am here throughout the season, but have been posting less for quite some years already.

We will see how the basketball god treating us, actually I remember Yao was being picked up by Rockets when they were like 7th or 8th worst record.

Even the worst team will have 42% not in the top 3. So having a 15% to get into the top 3 in not that bad of a chance anyway.

18.3% top 3 currently (6/7 split)

I think it was around 21.5% if we had 6 pick outright.

**** the NBA for not doing this the day after the season. I get they make money off of it and wanna build suspense and drama but for us to wait this long is ridiculous.
