knicks weren't winning this game even w/all their guys healthy.

Please explain our record setting performance against the Warriors with these same guys with even fewer games of gelling under their belt.

Was it us or was it the Warriors?

So when we win coach pushes all the right buttons but when we lose it's because we're shorthanded?

Warriors-Knicks game was just a run and gun affair with no defense by either team....and yes being shorthanded will take it's toll.


Our coach only likes to play 8 guys anyway. We can't use this excuse every time there's a loss. Our coach said we're clearly a better team after the trades.

We're just playing bad.

It's not like our players are winded or anything, they flat out are playing sloppy basketball.

Knicks continue to impress Lebron in all facets of the game.

you don't think the coach thought he might have Nate Robinson and Cuttino Mobley available on the depth chart when he said we were better after the trades?

this is the Cavs in the Cavs house. how many teams have won in Cleveland this year? i'll spoil the suspense - NO ONE HAS WON IN CLEVELAND THIS YEAR BUT CLEVELAND

I see this team struggle so much with only a few players and can't help but get so freaking angry at management for letting this happen. You can see that Nate and Jeffries are injured, yeah. But a guy like Curry comes out of shape, supposedly injures himself therefore he can't play soon, and is a wasted roster spot so far. His contract doesn't let you do more than push him to get in shape and I wonder how diligent the Knicks have done that. But Marbury and J. James? If you wanna trade them, then freaking play them. If not, and seeing how hurt the game is, work out something and sign a player that can help! And then you make a trade for a guy that has heart problems. Fine, the cap helps but only for 2010. Its 2008 and this guys are busting their ***es out there and can only do much playing so fast and getting so tired.

Yay, everybody celebrate 2010. Yay! But for now the Knicks are still playing and deserve to have a solid chance at competing and with 7 able players thats too freaking hard. Im a freaking Knicks fan that wants to see the team compete and its too much to ask from this 7 players. Yeah, other teams battle injuries, but none is in the situation the Knicks are.

They tell me they wanna make the playoffs while handling their business as they are? I tell them to F U.

no one should take too much from this game. wait until we have Nate and Jefferies and the new guys have a few practices under their belt. second night of a back to back on the road with 7 guys against the best team in the east? what did people expect?

Well the gamepickers says that I was expecting a loss by greater than 15 points.

omg, that's amazing. good call. that's what mine says, too. so why are people acting surprised that an undermanned knicks team can't compete against the best team in the east on the road in the second night of a back to back?

Mine says they win by five, so that gives me the right to bitch about the game?

BTW, I forgot to change it in time...

let me repeat the Cavs are 9-0 at home this year with an average margin of victory of 17.8ppg. what did any of you think was going to happen when we walk into Cleveland with 8 healthy guys and two of them are Malik and Roberson? what are you guys thinking? we were gonna steal this one?

be real. have patience. Nate and Jefferies back within the week, maybe Cuttino if we're lucky.

what explanation needs to be made? the Cavs are just miles better as a team than we are healthy or not... how do u even dispute something like this? if u think the Knicks would have had those record setting games playing the Cavs you're sorely mistaken.

do u just enjoy creating arguments where they doesn't need to be one or do u honestly believe the Knicks should have by all rights beaten this Cavs team if they had their guys all healthy & ready to play?

it's funny that everyone is all psyched about Lebron coming here and then they think we can beat him... uh? he's lebron james. he is the best player on the planet and he may not be good enough to win it all by himself, but he's certainly good enough to beat us to smithereens.

I wasn't expecting much and I'm not complaining but maybe some people expected the team to show up and try a little harder.

As far as I'm concered, we're one game closer to a better draft pick.

Made it once it was available to do it, so it probably was before Nate went down. I update them close to the game or on game day, but today was a busy day. Anyway...

I just tuned in... ugh. Can someone tell me how did Q get those Ts? And Duhon has a T too?

I think MSG would be better off just showing video from Deb Placey nee Kaufman's wedding or something right now, jeez.

Q got the T's because he acted like a dickhead and basically quit on his team.

Snacks is paying more attention to the promotion going on on the floor than the huddle. I want to smack him in his stupid grinning mug with a clipboard.

The problem I have with it do you trust management on how they will use that draft pick.

Didn't Isiah have a good record against Cleveland? I could be wrong but for some reason I remember that the Knicks for the last couple of years actually played well against the Cavs.
