Toronto has a first class ticket to lottery land. Beating Boston and Oklahomas without their key players doesnt give me confidence. Bad teams beat good team occasionally.

Toronto is bad team.

you are trying to have it both ways: first you say that Knicks are only beating bad teams and then you also say that bad teams occasionally beat good teams.

Knicks have played a lot of bad teams and haven't lost to any of them since the Denver loss.

Meanwhile Jennings is running the worst offensive team in the league. Suck it.

After that horrible stretch when we lost to bad teams, we're now putting the smackdown on those teams as we should.

In the past we would lose some of these games. We would have a huge letdown and lose to a team we had no business losing to. So far we've kept up the intensity enough to beat these teams. The Raptors played HARD last night. That team wanted to win in a bad way. That was a good win against a determined opponent.

I didnt have a problem with the win.

I had an issue with Felton trying to be a poor mans version of Baron Davis.

I always love it when good triumphs over evil

I think you fail to realize how good Amare is making Felton look. Think Duhon and Lee. If you have a guy to feed that has GREAT hands you are going to get assists.

Felton needs to calm down and play smarter. Dude is making bad decisions at the end of games and it is becoming annoying.

you say this just after Felton just carried the Knicks for a half while Amare was in foul trouble.

Holy crap.

This shouldn't even have been a game. Amare carried this team in the 4th by dropping 18 pts.

the only reason it WAS a game was because Felton carried the team in the first half with 20 points.

Man, take your negativity and go watch Jennings suck as a PG.

Negativity? We going to the wire with the garbage ass Craptors. Give me a break.

I have high expectations for this team. Im not going to do somersaults for beating garbage teams when I see MAJOR issues.

do you know anything about the NBA? This isnt football. How did the garbage Craptors beat Orlando, Boston and OKC? This is why they play 82 games

fixed

your a funny dude. Couldnt be more different. Felton should try being less like Jeter and more Dale Earnheart

So how are they different? This should be interesting....

i'm assuming you mean Tampa Bay Mike Williams... & no, i didn't pick him up in FF... but i did get Benjarvus Green-Ellis & Mike Tolbert off waivers & bamboozled another guy into trading me Dwayne Bowe for Zach Miller... all those guys have really been lights out for me all year long... who needs rooks when u have awesome role playing battle-tested vets like that on your bench?!

for what it's worth, i'm hoping rookie James Starks blows up for the Pack in the next 3 weeks so i can flash the I Told You So card at all my rivals in my league.

Respect !!! at the end of the day we are all knicks fans hoping for the best, hoping someone out there understands our sufferings when our team looses, how much more we expect and hope happens with this franchise, how our desire for this team to succeed is second to none, we all have opinions, expectations & regrets, we are all entitled to voice them, without those this board would be a very dull place...

Man, I've had nothing but respect for your opinions. Every time I'd argue with you, I would learn something new. However, in my eyes, you have lost every ounce of respect with this thread.j/k

Honestly, it does take a real man to admit that he was wrong. And I am pretty sure that you have done it before. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for helping to make this the best place on the net for knick fans. BTW, I really thought that Sergio Rodrigues was gonna be Nash 2.0 for us, lol.
