There is no way a hawk could survive a tank shell.

Pretty much a combination of the Mighty Quinn and Hercules Hernangomez should...I say this sheepishly SHOULD keep Dwight Howard in check as it worked 11/20/2016. Then the Knicks somehow went away from that formula, put KP at the five and the Hawks took the next two.

I know Hornacek has a $17M per season reason to keep starting Noah but I'm wondering what it's going to take for DJ JAzzy Jeff to actually make the obvious adjustment. The Knicks are HORRIFIC in the paint and they need a strong body who won't get outmuscled and makes guys think twice about wandering in the paint without over expending KP whose game is best from the perimeter.

So what's the ideal outcome of this game? We need to lose for the lottery, but the vets playing well increases trade values...and if the young core plays well that's a great thing... KP getting playoff experience would be good... We're in such a weird spot.

We are about to lose 2 in a row. Our next win will be against Brooklyn.

I have courtside seats once again within arms reach of the visitors bench. Hearing the coaching staff moan and groan at the last game in December was fun, and the Knicks still had actual hope of accomplishing something back then. This time it should be amazing. I'll pick some neck hairs off Rambis as we slumps in his chair at the 4,000th missed defensive assignment. Auction at 8pm.
