Be careful, Ben Stiller might get offended.

New York is a tough team and they have a lot of pride so I doubt that they go out on their own court. I'd say that they're the favorite to win tonight.

Chuck Everett wrote:Knicks in a squeaker, although once again, Pacers are 6-1 on the road in the playoffs and the Knicks are 3-5 at MSG. The Garden is loud and raucous on a nightly basis, yet they don't seem to have any kind of homecourt advantage. Very strange.

Dan Patrick was just talking with Stephen Jackson about this. The lights are just too bright for some of the players. It's a weird dynamic when many of the fans are bigger celebrities than the players.

I still believe the Knicks have what it takes to overcome this but obviously they need to start playing better from now on. Top effort and focus for the full 48 minutes is required from everyone.

He's listed as "Available" I'm assuming he's starting we'll see how much that knee limits him if at all.

Spike Lee sitting next to all those former NBA players on the TNT crew and he looks like a puppet.
