Freewin. No problem. The Knicks are tanking like pros now. Not so surprising, with their store of quality tanking experience and practice these past few seasons.

The only worry is if for some odd reason they decide to

Ive been preaching this tank/playoff attitude for quite some time, however I will not accept a Knick sweep.

i always wondered why we never tried this:

Starters: DH / VC / RJ / Boone / Diop
2nd unit: Mwill / vc-rj / boki / swill / krstic , get some instant offense with krstic, give him the right amount of minutes, becuase the 2nd unit hasn't been performing well, you got 3 offensive players in the SL and boone will catch and finish.

Instant offense with Krstic?

Since when did Frank start calling plays for this guy that doesn't involve the same pick and pop play?

Well he always calls early plays for Nenad but with the game progressing we somehow move away from him ....

Curly shouldn't feel bad then since Frank does the same thing to Carter

The knicks would love to sweep us for all the time's we destroyed them over the past 6 years.Crawford and Randolph are gonna come to play you can count on that.I think it'll be a close one but the NETS will pull it off if RJ doesn't shoot 3-15 from the field.I also predict a sweep this week.

This has been happening for at least a week. Nets run early offense through Krstic and even if he is scoring well his minutes disappear in the 2nd half.

I don't know if it's conditioning/health issues or Frank worried about opposing bigs abusing us on the offensive glass or just general defensive issues with Krstic or combination of these factors but it is odd to see it almost every game for the last few games.

It's like yea Krstic...and by the end of the game you wonder what happened to him..

if VC keeps playin the way he is, and RJ doesn't have a terrible game, we should win this.
