It's gonna be a hard road, Charlotte always plays us hard, Washington gave the Celtics a good game tonight and the Pistons beat the Magic. My point: nothing's a given because the Knicks don't play with enough consistency or attitude.

Maybe start shump, but I think he is to small.

Shump is 6'5 with long arms and strong..he can handle the 2..fields plays weaker than shump so at least it's an upgrade.

Until Baron Davis is ready he does not count.

Shift du Reality Check

6'6 Shumpert. 6'7 Fields. 6'9 Anthony. 6'10 Amar'e. 7' Chandler

While I would much rather win, what I want to see is steady improvement. I believe the wins will come, just need the coaches to figure this thing out.

There is no excuse for lack of effort, should not get down 18 to raptors.

Nothing is a given in this entire weird season. Why I'm not panicking. Still, this game was like a Lugz steel-toed boot to the nuggetts.

I don't think Shumpert is ready to run the point as a rookie its going to take him a few years to figure out when to shoot and when to pass. Ease him in let Baron make all the tough decisions.

Have you seen the rest of the Eastern Conferences records..No one is lighting it up. It's EARLY in the season!! We are 2 and 3 with lots of injuries. We will be fine soon as TD minutes running point can go down and we get Amare, Shump & Jefferies back. Hate to say it but Jefferies minutes are missed. He plays great team defense.

I don't care about the rest of the eastern confrence.. I have high standards for the knicks... we made the moves to be an elite team, big payroll, no fleixibility... we should be better than the rest...

Watching this game tonight and I find myself changing channels even in the last 2 minutes. This is boring basketball. TD needs to be replaced and fast. He is fools gold. While Bibby is faux gold.

the knicks are missing 4 of their top 10 players right now. for a team with little depth, that's killing them. you could argue they're missing 3 of their top 6 with baron, iman and amar'e being out.

Then you have unrealistic expectations in my opinion after 5 games with all the pieces not even there. Injuries have to be considered especially when u bring up moves. No Amare, No Shump, No Baron Davis, No Jefferies. Most teams go 8 deep..that's 4 main pieces in your rotation. Look at who logged minutes today. Besides Melo & Chandler..non of these players are NBA starters with some even being borderline roster makers. Celtics are only .5 games up on us.

That's cool.
