Yea the good old Knick days.... Anyway Knicks should win the game tonight but there will be no guarantees at all because Chicago matches up well with us. A win tonight though would be key in our race to get to the 4th or 5th seed. The Bucks play in Phoenix tonight so we have a decent shot at moving up a game on them.

My prediction- knicks up early in the second, lose the lead by halftime...game remains close til the mid way thru the 4th when the knicks blow it open and go up by 10.

Knicks win 97-85

This is a great opportunity to catch Milwalkee while they are on a west coast trip!

Me and Silverfuel were talking about how although Tim Thomas grabs less rebounds than KVH it seems like he gets the key rebounds. And he can score in the 4th quarter and he has mad handle and he's smooth as all hell!

Anyway as far as this game goes. Chicago always scare me when we play them there but we SHOULD win. Defense Defense Defense

good observations.

Did anyone catch how TT brings the ball up the court after an opponent makes a basket and the game has slowed? A little rest for Marb and it breaks up any kind of double-teaming/backcourt pressure the opponents bring.

TT had missed several outside shots in the second half and I thought that the coaching staff reminded him of that. Notice the deep lowpost go-to-the-basket moves in the fourth.

Yeah man..excellent points! I love it when he brings the ball up like that! The coaches just have to keep reminding him to mixed it up..inside/outside.

Yeah he should work it in the paint more. He is very effective in the post. He can post up and he is strong and quick enough to score down there. And by the way, HAPPY BIRTHDAY EWING33BXNY!!

I like how he posts up too but dont you guys think he was turning around too quickly? If he could only back his defender up 2 more feet to get a little closer his FG% would be awesome in that region. He can post and back people down easily I think. I wonder if he is working on that?

I ohnestly think that TT should just camp out in that lowpost the entire game because he is so much bigger then the opposing SF the majority of the time. He has post moves, we have all seen them. Its a question of establishing the position, as TT tends to get pushed out of the post. If he could learn how to establish lowpost position before gettin the ball, something any true lowpost player must be able to do, he would truly ascend a whole new level, maybe an allstar calibur player. However he has not done that in 6 years so I don't know if another month will make a dramatic difference.
A glimmer of hope maybe?!?

The knicks are real inconsistent! You seriously never know what you are going to get from them. I know the bulls are better defensively in the paint than NJ last night but still, they should score more than 18 points in the 1st quarter.

I can tell right now, this team will blow this game and end up in 8th. Bad bad start.

Norris, Penny, DerMarr, Sweets, Baker. Weird lineup.

That was a weird line up they can score. What throws me off all the time is how Penny comes in and out and weird times. I want to see TT, Stephon, Penny, Baker and Nazr to match the Bulls Frontcourt.

If anyone has Direct TV check out WGN ch307 (Chicago TV chan) also doing the Bulls vs. Knicks game. Those play-by-play guys aren't that bad. One of the better ones in the NBA after Marv and Clyde IMO.

Yeah, I'm watching it on WGN....It's different. I can;t wait until the Knicks make a run and see what the announcers say. Knicks down 6 in 2nd quarter.
