6-14

6 games out of first place and a playoff spot.

I'm goin 6 victories.

6 guarentees. I think they could win maybe 2 more.

It's a tough stretch.

to come to 24-35 by the end of february

this doesn't take into account injuries, trades, tanking teams, etc. so 24-35, i would say would be the lower end of the spectrum (most likely). probably more like 26-33 or 27-32.

I'll be satisfied with 7, happy with 8 and ecsatatic if we can get 9 or more.

6 or less would likely off our playoff hopes.

satisfied with 7 - 24-35
happy with 8 - 25-34
ecstatic with 26+ wins

now, i'm a hater and look at everything negatively. yet we both have them at 24-35 by the end of march. now that's funny.

i don't think a sub .500 team makes it unless they are the atlantic division winner so we need to win it. toronto has a VERY favorable schedule coming up so they can put some space between them and both us and nj.

I see about 3-4wins. The teams on the schedule will be close to full strength(exception Milwaukee). No gimmie victories like they managed to get so far in Miami and Grizz 2. I agree with DJ maybe 1 les win because the team will not win more than 35 gms this yr. 33 wins is the inevitable.

ecstatic?

You're obviously a graduate from Isiah's School of Lowered Expectations.

So are you saying I should expect us to win half the upcoming games? Check the teams we're up against I don't think we have the ability to do it. If we do, YES, i will be ecstatic because thet'll mean we've passed the toughest stretch of games and still on track to win 38.

6-8

Wow, so you predicted at this point in the season we'd be on pace to win like ~36 games? Frikken wild, dude. You have a real talent!

A bit too pessimistic for my taste though, a real fan would have predicted ~37 wins.

blue, i don't know how i do it. it's like 2nd nature. i guess i'm just blessed with this gift of knowing all things knicks related. i just wish there was a way i could share all this great power i have. but i do have a secret...i do this 3 times a day at work. maybe you guys should try it also. click here to see it.
