Felton is traveling with the Knicks as their four-game road trip continues, but he's just rehabbing. Coach Mike Woodson said there's a chance Felton can practice when the Knicks get home on Monday.

But... doesn't he want to rest a little bit longer? I mean maybe there's something else that the doctors haven't discovered.. Let's get him a second opinion before he rushes into practice.

lol... Fatass needs to stay home and rest

Greg Smith (knee) will return for Friday's game against the Knicks.

We can win this game, Murry has to play more minutes than Beno, Murry/Shump and Murry/Smith backcourts need to happen, get howard in fool trouble with Barg early. Lots of Melo and Barg pick and roll. Melo needs to attack Jones, Howard and post up chandler, straight iso on him.. get them in foul trouble.. Harden going to get his but tired Harden out with chasing Smith and Hardaway around. Murry and Shump body Lin all game.. Lin is turnover prone pressure him with these guys, please please. Limit Beno minutes unless he's hot. We can wear them out on the defensive end.

We can win this... Woody is just so fxcking dumb, low IQ Bastard.. We have depth at mutliple position, we need to use it, you fool.

Can this team play two good games in a row? Doubtful. No evidence to date suggesting that we could do that against two solid opponents. Shump's pattern is to have the occasional big game then disappear for weeks. Melo unlikely to have two good shooting games in a row. We played the Rockets well at MSG, but have struggled to contain their 3-point shooting the last couple seasons.

I'd be more enthusiastic about beating the Spurs in SA if I didn't see the standings still say "10-21" afterward. I hope this team can surprise me, but last night to me was just a bad team catching a good one on an off night. It happens in this league. Kings beat the Heat recently, Nets beat OKC last night, etc etc etc. I know we want to believe it's more, but this team has not earned that trust yet this season. They need to have many performances like last night before you can feel good about them going into any game. But, it is still before the All-Star break and in theory there is time to turn it around if the pieces fell into place.

Clockwork.

Honestly, I wouldn't be surprised to see Yao Ming return in this game

Be careful. He's got a groupie here that is SERIOUS about their boo.

Be gentle with Mars_Blackmon mamadontcry. Mars doesn't understand the strong player/fan relationship you've worked so many years to forge.

It will be perverse. Harden will be ushered to the line. Melo will get iced by the refs.

didn't watch the last game and they pulled out a victory so I'm probably not watching this one either because I'm superstitious like that.

i did catch the knicks in 60 of the game and the shump and murray backcourt looked promising defensively. murray and shump can get some of these bums running up the court.

i actually think we have a chance at this. Rockets were killing us last season because they ran. With Dwight, they don't run so much anymore and they play an awkward half court game. They play right into what we want to do, especially awful defensive help strategies. If they're not shooting the 3s well, they're pretty beatable. And if there's any cure to Shump and JR's offensive woes, it's gotta be Harden's defense.

Um they still do run and you realize rockets destroyed us last time this season they played?

They used to kill us with guard play and transition points. This season, they spend a lot of time with Dwight in the post and their bench is awful. I don't remember them destroying us this season. They beat us by 3 last time without Tyson. I'm worried about the back-to-back, but it's not like we don't have a chance.

Destroyed us? They only won by like 4 or 5 points, and it took a very controversial call to get that win (a Melo 4 point play that should have counted but was waived off).
