We are getting some guys back. It's not a good team but they are certainly capable of catching a team that's taking it easy. I think 4-5 wins in that stretch is possible.

Some exciting games tonight:
1) Either CLE or CHI will be tied with us - CLE @ CHI
2) Suns @ Nets - Suns lose due to exhaustion?
3) Hawks @ Pistons - Hawks win 3 straight in upset?

It's arguably our toughest stretch of the season. I don't know how you can expect a better win % then they currently have with the easiest or closest to easiest schedule in the NBA.

Maybe they steal a win or two but would be pretty surprising to compete on west coast with us having the worst defense in NBA by a mile. Especially the starting unit.

5 wins max. We'll be getting trier and robinson back soon. I'm not even trying to be optimistic, but these losses to PHX, ATL, etc. have been uncharacteristic of the knicks on the whole. Either way looks like we're heading for bottom 3 in the league. That'd put them at 14-37.

Washington has our number, Brooklyn has found their rhythm, and I don't see The Knicks flying into to Utah and beating them after getting blasted twice by the Bucks without extended rest.

Knicks can realistically lose every game, but they will win at least one, and will be totally random against whatever team happens to miss all of its wide open shots all night long.

This is really the season the Knicks may actually finish with the worst record. Too bad they didn't do it before the lottery reform. :-?


I only see Washington as a win, the others we’re lucky if we get another one

You know Adam Silver can't fix that lottery machine.. but he can give us a brutal schedule. Thanks Adam!

I certainly don't mind the losses that are sure to come. I just hope we compete hard, see some improvement from our young kids (but mostly Frank), and hopefully win a couple games during this stretch.

right when the draft lottery odds changed. my christmas wish is we don’t find our typical knicks luck in finishing dead last and still moving out of top 2.

That would be fantastic. Worried some teams take a night off against us and Timmy/Muds/Knox go on fire.

As long as we keep Kanter in there defending we have a chance to lose every game.


ugh. that's looking like 2 wins MAX. this tank rolling.

We need LaVine healthy in CHI and Love/Thompson healthy in CLE before we can truly embrace the tank. I'm glad Booker is back in PHO because they're starting to get some very useless wins now.

The road to Zion looks rather bright but it can certainly be brighter. Praying for the good health and fast, strong returns from our competition.

I stand by this except I think the 1 win is the london game against the wizards. we will not win a game on american soil in january.
