melo out this game. i think martin is playing, just didnt wanna play him b2b with his injury. no word out yet though

this is a winnable game. i even think we can blow them out w/o melo. they had 18 3pters last night but 30fgs as a team. lord have mercy on their souls.

No Melo tonight?

Damn - they really might be trying to tank for a top 5 pick! :lol:

yea typical game from a D'antoni team. Sucks I'm going to miss the game tonight but I don't see any reason why we can't win as long as we give scola a lot of help on A'mare. I doubt bill walker is going to put up seven 3's tonight lol. K-Mart's status is still clouded so we shall see. I hope Lowry breaks out of his funk tonight...

Kevin Martin is a no-go for the night.

Looks like they don't want him hurting his trade valu...err, I mean they don't want him hurting himself

Our team is in no position to take other teams for granted. The guys need to be sharp every night because they don't have any "gimmes" on the schedule.

I do like that all of the 09ers are now playing for contracts! :D

^^ right about that. not easier with lowry on a slump and martin out again. fortunatley the bench came through last game. and new york, even w/o melo, didnt get blown out by the heat last night. with wade back i thought it'd be a blowout but it was close till the end. that's nothing to take lightly. i think the knicks are a time bomb waiting to explode. this wont be a blowout

I'm curious to see what Amare looks like on the floor tonight. I have a couple of friends who are displaced Knicks fans and they are absolutely killing that guy! The way that they talk you'd think that Amare was Eddy Curry all over again! :lol:

Lowry needs to get out of this shooting slump.

no idea why they don't goto Scola more
Parsons+Lee are horrible to watch on offense

why not start Dragic+Lowry

Jordan Hill is definitely playing for a contract! :lol:

Not getting the extension may have been the thing that finally lit a fire under him.
