Um.... I'm playing? Crap, let me get my bags packed........

[Aaron Brooks]

Um.... I'm playing? Crap, let me get my bags packed........

They might yell at you like they yell at me

[Mr. E]

whoa....



The Dude does NOT abide by so-called Rockets fans cheering for New York's Tracy McGrady over our team!

[kam_soluusar]

Been waiting for this.

I hope T-wack plays badly, 2 - 10 from the field, 0 - 6 from the arc.

gotta keep Lee out of it. Make the rest of the Knicks beat us.

[M4P]

TMac is probably going to make some BS excuse about his knee/groin/balls and play for ~20min.

Tracy loves the "Moment" all those terrible games he has had since his debut at MSG wont mean anything.. he will try to stick it to us and I think this will be his best game in a month.. (that isn't saying much though)

Love Hill but I don't think he has that attitude that screams "I'll show you!" I don't see him having a great game.. 4pts 4rebs ( 3 offensive ) I hope he proves me wrong though.

lol.

they might want Prime's butt traded like Brooks' too.

let's see if Battier and Ariza can make Tmac's "Moment" a nightmarish one.

I'm more concerned about the D on David Lee.

[YaoZaii]

Man, the picture of dancers in "nurse" uniforms looks cool.

Maybe that's the real reason for our "injury curse"... (worthwhile to be injured i guess.)

[Knicksick]

Key matchups:

Brooks vs. Douglas: Brooks has been incredible throughout the season but Douglas has played very good in the past games since becoming a starter (averaged 18points/7assists). Brooks is usually the type of PG that would destroy us for 30 points but Douglas is our best perimeter defender so it'll be interesting to see if he cvan bother Brooks.

Gallo vs. Ariza or Battier: When Gallo plays bad we usually lose---Battier/Ariza is terrific on defense and I expect them to bother Gallo a lot. Will be interesting to see how Gallo handles 48 minutes against two of the best perimeter defenders in the league.

Scola vs. Lee: We expect Lee back for today's game---I personally think both guys are gonna have huge games---20+ points/10+ rebounds. I don't think either is gonna defend the other particularly well....

Kevin Martin can always decide a game if he is shooting well....

[Mr. E]

Hey, knicksick- who are the projected starters for New York?

Nice key matchups, dude! These are two teams that take charges , so I'm expecting the bodies to hit the floor today

[Optimism Prime]

I don't WANT to be traded! Morey brought me to this team's board because I can play lock-down defense on idiocy!

....And I have an awesome sense of humor.

[rocketsballin]

well i'll be damned, im cant sleep, and you konw wat that means? . . .

i get to watch tmac tear houston a new one

he has been stinking it up tho

Chandler is out and House most likely too.

Knicks will start with:

PG-Douglas
SG-McGrady
SF-Gallinari
PF-Harrington
C-Lee

with Walker,Giddens,Rodriguez,Duhon off the bench

I don't know how tough a rebounding team the Rockets are but if you hit the boards hard against the Knicks and take it to the basket strong you are guaranteed 15-20 offensive rebounds and 50-60 points in the paint---that's the way to beat the Knicks.

[DreamShook34]

WOW Bill completely demolished Gallo's name LMAO! That was tough.
