It'd be nice if Frank got some more burn with NYK's length up front. But that ain't happening.

Marv matching up with Porzingis. That should be something.

Really impressed by his defense. He's been great at using his length and protecting the basket. Doesn't get punished as people envisioned. Can keep up with other fours on his feet.

Ironically, offense has been the underwhelming part, but, hey, he's seven games into his career. It's really encouraging that he's been so good on defense (the most valuable player according to on/off stats for the Knicks) since the tools for offense have always been there.

This should be an expected, if not easy, win for the Hornets.

I really like what I have seem in Porzingis so far. Finally Knicks did something right post Ewing era.

i Don't think we should write off this game as a easy win just yet. The Knicks aren't as bad as they were last year.
Although Melo isn't as great as he once was he is still pretty damn good. They have some length and big bodies. With Lopez and Godzingis they will give us a run form our money rebounding. Through in Melo's post game we may have our hands full with the interior post defense.

I'm not saying we are gonna lose, i expect a win (because I'm a fan). We haven't proved that we are a team that will constantly win those give me games either.

Just saying don't be surprised if we have to fight for this win.

IMO we not at a point as a team or franchise where we can assume we are going to win any specific game, regardless of the opponent.

I hope we win, but would not be surprised by a loss. This team needs to prove it can be a lot more consistent before I assume we are going to win a game.

agreed. if our offense goes cold for a game, we don't have the defense to fall back on. And if past seasons for Kemba, Lin, Batum, Lamb (and basically everyone on the entire roster) are any indication, we're going to have nights where several players are cold. It's inevitable that we're going to lose some games that we should win, and we're also going to win some games we have no business winning.

easy win tonight guys, no problems. should coast to victory. easy street. Jeremy lamb against the Knicks? C'mon I chuckle at the proposition. Friendly reminder to everybody who is going to the game to bring an umbrella and extra socks cuz it's gonna get wet up in there.

The @hornets list P.J. Hairston as questionable after he missed second half of T'Wolves game with a migraine.

Big deal that they are 4-4 against 7 our of 8 playoff teams. We have had a much tougher schedule and are 3-4, with two of those losses to Atlanta by 2 and 3 points respectively. No way they would be 3-4 with our schedule. Hopefully Kemba shows up tonight, if he does we should win.

I ain't gonna jam them up they've had a good start to the season. I've got no idea who will win tonight, but if you're taking my post seriously you need to get your head checked. It was so over the top
