This game is as good as I thought it was going to be.

Yes, cool.

We're losing.

DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

David Lee is a god among men. He can walk on water, turn water into wine, and part the Red Sea all at the same time.

I've missed much of the game so far, but from what I've seen our body language and ball movement looks good, and still we're down 51-34. That's scary.

I suspect we'll make a run and get within 5 or so some time in the second half, but here's my question: in a season that's all about "just win" is it unreasonable to expect the Knicks to be competitive against a team like Denver. I mean I understand Denver is the better team and we're the underdogs, but is it unreasonable to expect us to be competitive?

Hmmm, be careful because the Moral Victory Champs Knicks always find a way to make the score look respectable even when the game really wasn't...

I went with 11-15, you have to factor in Nate getting his garbage-time baskets.

Wow, that Nuggets dunk makes me want to turn this game off and never watch the Knicks again this season....and yet, I can't look away like a bad car crash.

We were on that the first 3 games. Thats why the win against Denver was so great. But since then, all the turmoil has really made it impossible to expect this team to compete against good teams. Heck, we lost yesterday to Sacramento!

After the Knicks came back on the Nuggets at the Garden, after Denver built a big lead, I don't see them letting up until my gamepicker is completely safe from Nate's garbage points.

Which is another reason why I think there will be an altercation tonight.

Seriously, how badly should the record look in the next week so that we can see Isiah fired?

Looking at the bright side, maybe Isiah gets fired after this one....

No way. He has to hear it from Knicks fans at the Garden first.
