Stifling defense and elite offense by Brunson has been fueling this recent winning streak; we’re like the 2001 Sixers team with AI and the defensive and hustle players. If we could get OG, Randle and Mitch at optimal speed we’ll be like the 2004 Pistons.

Edit: The key to beating the Nuggets is to turn Jokic into a scorer and forcing Murray into tough shots. We gotta be proud of this team battling through injuries and keeping their identity. Let’s go Knicks!!!
I will only cherish the wins and ignore everything else, because that's the only way to survive as a Knicks fan.

Deuce will be guarding Murray I assume.

On a side note for me, I'm all in for the Knicks, but I also want Murray to stay healthy the rest of the year. I need to see an SGA - Murray backcourt on my Olympic team this summer.
There goes my hero. Watch him as he goes.

This road trip is already a success. I truthfully wouldn't mind if Thibs sat down Brunson, Hart and Donte. No need to chase this one. We suck in Denver.

I wouldn't mind it either but he's not gonna do it.

48 mins of Hart and McBride incoming. Maybe one of Bogs or Burks gets really hot and we steal one... who knows.

We'll prob stick with the same starters as the last game. Hart will get hurt in the paint with Gordon here and there but we'll match up fairly well otherwise.

The X-factor will be how Precious, Bogs and Burks play off the bench. They were putrid the last game and we squeezed out a win anyway.

Knicks have a 107.2 DRTG since the ASB, that is 3rd in the league. That's a 13 game stretch of which OG only played 3 of them, needless to say, don't ever trust dusty newport smoking 8ball jacket wearing Knick fans when they say our defense is bad without their favorite player.

We are not going to win this one. We destroyed them by a 40 point margin in NY. Without OG, Mitch and Julius and them having revenge on their mind I would be genuinely shocked if we even manage to keep this close, let alone win it. If we keep it close I would already count it as a major success.

Now Knicks, go out and prove me wrong.
