First of all, I agree with Oasis' assessment of the Knick's winning streak as far as the Cavs are terrible and the Raptors are also pretty bad. But I think the vicotry over the Hornets was great on Saturday.
New Orleans is more than a decent team---they're a pretty good team who is favored by some to come out of the east. The Knicks showed a trmendous amount of poise, finally beating them in OT.
Secondly, Im happy to see the Knicks fighting despite their poor record. They're really showing alot of character, professionalism and perserverance.
I am an opponent of the theory of tanking the season with the expectance of landing LeBron James. A team plays to win, period. If the Knicks are in position to geta lottery pick in the summer, so be it, but there's still a season to play. I think that playing towards the lottery purposely is both cowardly and flawed.
I think that the Knicks have a good chance of extending their win streak to 4 against Orlando on Wednesday. On the contrary, I can see MscGrady having a big game and the flimsy Hill struggling. The Knicks had better decimate the Magic on the boards.
