Pelicans on a 3-game win streak. Hope KP shows up versus AD.

We could be out of the playoff picture as early as New Year's Eve.

Knicks need to get KP off early like we did in his showdown with Towns in Minny. I bet you see the same result if you try to make him the #1 option. He's a competitor and will feed off his offense on the defensive end.

GET HIM THE BALL

So no Melo suspension?

This should be a win regardless.

Sometimes I think the Knicks just need a kick in the @#% to jumpstart them.

Agreed. That Atlanta game left such a bad taste, this team NEEDS to come out and just blow out the Pelicans. This team is BETTER than the effort they've shown. It's time for this team to finally come together and STOP giving excuses. These guys are consummate professionals.

Totally forgot Langston was on NO. Now you have:

AD looking to embarrass young up-and-comer
Jrue rivalry game vs Justin
Langtston revenge game

Hope we don't start the game off with no energy and acting like we already won :oops:

Dont ever forget the biggest Knicks enemy Tyreke friggin Evans :lol:

And Clyde Frazier's son Tim's revenge game for us not signing him :o

Melo saved up all his points for this one (if not banned), and we never saw Rose play 2 bad games in a row yet, but I cant call it an easy W cuz AD is amazeballz

Melo, if not suspended may crack a season high or hit a game winner in this one. Too much pride not to.

And winning this game can ensure we have a winning record at the end of 2016.
Are you fans of the team or the player?

Read on Twitter


Hopefully KP uses that missed FT as motivation to bring his percentage back up. Also I will live with him missing that one if he learns his lesson from it and he hits his clutch ones in the playoffs years down the road. A little worried him and Rose might be tired for this next game.

Hell no! They better not. He shouldn't even have been F2'd in the first place.
