1 win down 2 games to go in the Knicks challenges of games we want to win. The Nets win was important but 2 evils left!

This was on ESPN earlier Today for all 3 Huge Knicks NETs, vs LAKERs & next monday vs Jeremy Lin Houston Rockets

Premise is you can only have 1 must win in next 2 HUGE Games vs D'Antoni's Lakers in NY thursday 12/13 and the Dec. 17
monday game in return of Ex-knick Jeremy Lin Rockets OR 'Artist formerly known as Lin-sanity'

This poll you can only CHOOSE the most important WIN, assume you must chuck 1 game as a loss.
Of course naturally we fans want to win it all, as we beat NETs tonite in Brooklyn.

But which is most important MUST WIN Game? if you're going to lose 1 game if LOSS ever happenend

Playing along....

If I have to pick one TODAY, it would be Houston because they are at FULL STRENGTH. I want the Knicks to continue to prove that they are elite by winning against tough competition. A win against a depleted Lakers team, with a new Coach, means nothing.

All these regular season games are equal. I don't get caught up in story lines. They just need to win as many of these reg. season games as possible and try to win the East. That is the goal for now.

Kobe and Lin are just sideshows agitated by the press. The carnival barkers dare you to see the Bearded Lady or the 600 pound man. That is not the story.

The New York Knicks have nothing to prove. The Lakers are a soap opera. The Rockets are barely a .500 team. They both must fall. Want evidence? Look at the scoreboard. The only story is that we play every game OUR way. With passion. We set the tempo. We talk on defense. We hit the open man.

Everything else is just background noise to our parade.

I'm picking Houston because we lost badly there- we need to show we can beat them, adjust and that the game there was a fluke.

LIke the denver game, I hope Lin has a great game and drops 40 on us, but we win the game.

Thats all that matters.

Lakers are a mess. MDA has his hands full. IM sure some of you are into the vendetta thing but I'd guess Knicks are not. Melo had all summer to work with him on the olympic team so its not like he has not seen him. Felton did very well with him the first go around and Novak owes his contract to him.

Knicks should be confident in themselves and their game speaks louder than words.

They are both out of conference games. They both hold the same weight (Houston/Lakers). When looking at the big picture in regards to finishing with the number one seed of the Eastern Conference, both games are just as important as the other. As of right now we're currently 1 1/2 games ahead of Miami with a chance to make it a full two game lead with a win tonight (with the head to head tie breaker over Miami). In reality, the game against the Lakers is more "important" due to the fact that our next game is against the Lakers...

You know, the diplomatic response that all games are equal, I am not buying it. There is something very real in our anticipation of this big game, the Lakers, the Rockets, no one can deny that these games mean something ELSE if not MORE than the other season games

Look, we are talking about relationships, we've had relationships with the MDA and the Lin and our want to defeat these guys, this is natural, it's seeking some resolution to the years we have spent together.

Who do I want to defeat more? Well, for me personally I always liked MDA, I just want a good game, I think I would rather defeat Jeremy Lin. Still, I'm amped about tonight, I want to see what happens even if I do not root for a specific outcome.

Anyway, I voted Nets, because MDA and LIN will float along like twigs in a river, but the Nets rivalry, that's here to stay

It would have to be Lin to punish him for being the spotlight hogging locker room cancer that ruined our season last year.
Let's try to elevate the level of discourse in this byeetch. Please

Other teams need to know one thing,

GET DOWN OR LAY DOWN!

+1. EVERY GAME is a MUST WIN. Unlike Mike DamnPhoney, Woodson will not tolerate anything less. No real coach should.

Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

I agree, Losing the 8-0 Homecourt would be LESS Painful to the desperate Lakers even if both
Lakers & Rockets are subpar play now

I want the Rockets to go down & whenever NY loses a home game finally let it be to someone else other
than these 2 com-padre's

Still haven't forgiven Lin for shafting the Knicks or USING them as leverage for $$$ High Millions
Lin is as guilty as Knicks brass was in the fiasco, but with Felton PG it worked out for us!

Yep

aka Willis Reed Style

This is a different era & not quite the same as the infamous Reed incident however Wills didnt take no mess ! even way back then

If we beat the Lakers, it proves that MDA sabotaged last season!
