This should be an interesting matchup. Do we play run n gun with them, or get our asses blown out?

Could be the latter wit this group. I would play wit the idea of a run and gun, but we all know thta MD ain't goin for it.

I think we'll have to run and gun at least some, with the way these Knicks are playing.
Though, we also got Dunleavy coaching our team, which means, you know....

I think Duhon is actually out with a sprained ankle... so BD versus Nate Robinson?

If Duhon is out then Nate Robinson will get the start.

I've watched the Knicks a few times this season. They like to run, jack up shots, and play no D. I say we actually run this time and see what happens. Hopefully we're hot from 3 and start draining it on them. But...........................

I'm not sure which team of ours will show up. Will it be Monday's team or the team over the weekend. I guess we will so tonight.

Isn't this Zach's first game against the Knicks since the trade? He gets 35 tonight. And I hope Ricky can get it poppin' from 3 again. That's the only way he's useful.

Even though he sucked badly at the start of the season I'm still a bit impressed with Ricky. The guy hasn't been the ballhog or cancer everyone makes him out to be. He seems to know his role well this season. I'm glad he's doing better after recovering from the injury. He's not playing great, but he's doing well now.

Anyone else notice that when he was injured he was one of the few who actually got off their ass and huddled around the team? Most of the time you seem injured players just sit in the back of the bench and watch the game, but Ricky was walking around, talking to players, and giving them high fives. Players like Baron, Kaman, and Z-Bo seemed like they weren't even around at all.

^ Good points, Fishy. I guess I just hold a grudge longer! :lol: You're right, he was pretty much the only guy who huddled with the team, and I think you're also right in saying he understands his role this season. I guess, if anything, he just hasn't done enough to redeem himself from his play earlier in the season.

You can blame Ricky for lack of trying. He's trying his best, it's just we haven't seen his best hardly at all this season. But I'll tell you one thing - he can pass. He's a better passer than I'd imagine, but I sure wish he'd go back to dunking on people instead of just shooting the long ball.

No Camby tonight! Ralph says he's out with a migraine. Hmm.

Ricky Davis starts in his place.

So.. Al is taking over at PF? Why not start Deandre or Skinner instead of making Z-Bo play C?

Wow Baron is 2-2. Ricky with no shots and 3 assists. Whats up with that?
