VS.

Starting Lineups

Head coach


Head coach

*Wednesday Night is Knicks Legends Night. The Knicks will honor one notable Knicks player from each era of the 1950's, 1960's, 1970's, 1980's, 1990's and 2000's. The Dick McGuire Legacy Award will also be issued.*

Notes
The New York Knicks have acquired Carmelo Anthony, Corey Brewer, Shelden Williams, Anthony Carter and Renaldo Balkman in a 3-team trade with Minnesota Timberwolves and Denver Nuggets for Danilo Gallinari, Raymond Felton, Wilson Chandler, Eddy Curry, Anthony Randolph and Timofey Mozgov. Draft picks were also exchanged. It is unknown if all these players will be ready to play on Wednesday night.

Eddy Curry is still fat and not playing because he is no longer a member of this franchise.
Kelena Azubuike is practicing and making his way back from a knee injury.
Michael Redd is practicing with the Bucks and may return for this game.
Ersan Ilyasova has a right eye contusion and may miss this game.
Keyon Dooling may miss the game with left knee soreness.
Andrew Bogut will probably beast on our front line.
Bucks are a below average team.
Knicks must win.

Doubtful that the new guys are in uniform and ready to go on Wednesday - but I sure hope so.

everyone in the trade has to have reported and passed a physical... not sure there's time for that. players have 48 hours to report.

If they're not ready, who the hell will the Knicks play?

More like Bucks win, 200-25

WE AIN'T NOWHERE WITH THIS BUM CHOKER IN CARMELO. GIVE ME STARKS'S 2-21 ANY DAY OVER THIS LACKLUSTER CLUSTEREFF.

No way all these guys clear their physicals and are ready tomorrow night....even so, no practice, no comfort level with teammates. Possible starters Turiaf, STAT, Williams, Douglas and Fields. We'll probably see a little of Rautins and maybe AZ. Despite their record the Bucks are a tough matchup. Knick prolly lose this game.

Comfort level? If they are ready, they will play. Ain't no way they will play Shawne Williams over a ready-to-go Carmelo Anthony. We're fighting for the playoffs.

They will take physicals today. Physical results are given the same day.

There's a very good possibility the Knicks have 8 or 9 players available tonight. Going to be an ugly game.

Let's hope this GM is talkin out his (_|_)

From the Viper

"While there's a chance Anthony and Stoudemire can work things out offensively, there's not a chance that happens defensively. If they're stationed at center and power forward and Stoudemire goes to block a shot, Anthony will be abused on the switch to the five. 'Worse yet,' explained a GM, 'when 'Melo plays three, he's not a willing chaser. All his man has to do is run him through picks and he immediately yells 'switch.'

Let's keep an eye out for this...

Let's try to elevate the level of discourse in this byeetch. Please

geez - i go on vacation a few days and come back to all this stuff!

glad we got melo, price was a bit steep but i doubt it was too steep at all. knicks didnt have depth before the trade, and they dont have much of it right now. BUT, and thats a huge BUT, they do have 3 guys now that you can can rely on to drop a shot at any time the team needs a bucket. chauncey is one of the best closers in the league and melo makes the scoring of wilson and galinari an afterthought. we lose moz' size but we will replace that either by deadline or in the offseason. some guys make it out to seem that moz was the 2nd coming of kareem. kid was good, but average at best.

the roster still needs some work, but this team can go far in the playoffs this year. overall, i like the move and am hoping melo drops 40 tonight and the knicks blow-out these fools.
