We win all the games when we score more points than our opponent. Except for those games when we can't stop them from scoring more points than we do.

I only care about our perspective... there's other franchises fans that are saying the same thing.

I got your point. This team has been able to put together some very strong performances and unfortunately a bit of inconsistency has caused them to blow a couple of games that statistically teams usually win. I’m positive that teams generally win more games that they lead by 20+ points than they lose. Also just leading going into the 4th qtr in general teams tend to win at a much higher % than they lose!

When a team led the game after 3rd quarter, they won that game 77.48% of the time. On top of that, when also at home, this probability increased to 79.21%. Below table summarizes the cases according to the home/away factor.

The real test will be the 2nd half when we have some insane road trips. We are winning and looking good but time will tell if its sustainable.

I don't understand.

You’re confusing the point. Statistically the Knicks should’ve been able to win in the games they had significant leads which is where the term BLOWN LEAD comes from. The Knicks failed to close out a couple of games that statistically favor teams with those leads. Being a team reliant on young players it’s understandable that they would make the kind of mistakes they did. Hopefully they can grow out of making those mistakes.

Thats all anyone wants to talk about?

You can't say yeah man the Knicks are close. They are playing well....

No everyone wants to talk about 10-4...

Obviously we earned 8-6 by losing.

The point was to say the Knicks are playing good basketball and hopefully have a nice fluffy conversation.... but no everyone wants to be....

Anyway 🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

If they should be 10-4, why is their record 8-6?

I don't understand.

I agree with you and Bill Parcells

It's the NBA. No room for that "should be" shyt.

Get outta here.

Buzz Kill, if you feel 10-4 then enjoy it. Its like man made fur. It feels good, who cares if its made from petroleum based chemicals!
8-6, well I saw a team come back last nite and win. Win at home. Supposed to do good. Do most of us realize the ceiling on this team is about .500?
Yeah, so most of us understand this.
But thanks for the heads up!!! Just messing!

Cant be mad cuz we stole 2 Games this year ourselves.

How crazy would everyone be right now if we were 10-4?

After reading this, all some of you want to do is pop ****? What did I say here that prompts the troll ass comments? I dunno how you can turn it into a smug fest.... damn degenerates. Go wipe your ass with sandpaper.
