Gallo is looking to throw dirt on this team...and he will.

It's not like the threes we've been taking are wide open. 99% of them are contested. We need a true playmaker and not a bunch of pretend ones like we have on this team, Melo included.

I bet on the Nuggets. Yes I'm a realist. Just can't see the Knicks winning this one.

Yup...don't have much confidence anymore. Denver is a VERY good team with GREAT depth.

If Nene plays, we're gonna get blown out. If not, I still think we'll lose but at least we have a chance.

Melo is going to go all out. He hates his former coach and wants to embarrass him.

One more thing: why hasn't there been a players-only meeting the past few days?

If D'Antoni has lost his respect in the locker room, surely Melo and Amare need to show some leadership and get people on the same page.

Honestly, I'm not sure we'd lose if Nene is out (nugzin2040 says he's probable). I watched every Nuggets game (Gallo is one of my two favorite players) and they looked absolutely horrible yesterday against the Wizards -- so did we though...

Anyways...if he is out, my early SOTN prediction is Kosta Koufos. He's horrible.

You think Gallo gets a warm reception? Also, the one game where we can make alot of cock references.

And one final thing, the 2009 draft continues to haunt us. We face yet another PG we could have drafted: Ty Lawson.

That draft could have changed the course of this team. I'd still like to know what Donnie was thinking.

I love Gallo and I'll root for him 65 games this season. However tonight I hope he shoots 0-22 and misses a game winning layup.

I am skeptical on how we're gonna win though. Against Phoenix and Milwaukee the only reason it was even close is because those two teams are so bad. Right now we're looking like the worst team in the league. Let's hope we can turn it around tonight and gain some momentum on our road trip.
