Looks like Duncan is back this season. I hope we dont see Jackie Butler tonite. That would ruin some of the fun. Yes. Fun. Watching Knicks basketball can be fun.

http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/preview?gid=2006110618
San Antonio has won five of its last six meetings with New York (1-2), including a blowout victory in the last meeting at Madison Square Garden. The Spurs led by 31 points after the third quarter before winning 109-96 on Dec. 21, 2005.

That was one of many losses last season for the Knicks, whose 23-59 finish cost coach Larry Brown his job and resulted in GM Isiah Thomas taking over those responsibilities.

New York beat Memphis 118-117 in triple overtime in its season opener, but has since reverted to last season's form in consecutive defeats. The Knicks lost 109-95 to Indiana in their home opener Saturday, allowing the Pacers to shoot 64 percent in the second half.

Point guard Stephon Marbury was just 1-for-9, scored only four points and committed six turnovers. It was his second consecutive subpar game -- he went 2-for-9 and was limited to nine points in a 102-92 loss Friday to Atlanta -- and Marbury was booed during the contest.

"Surprised? They came here to see us win. They didn't come here to see us lose," Marbury said. "I knew I was going to get it. I had a bad game. Fortunately, there's 79 more. I just didn't play well. I just had a bad game. I can't explain that. I just played bad.

"It's still early in the season. We will definitely be back next game."

The Knicks begin a three-game road trip Wednesday at Denver.

Hope we win. Even if we can't win, at least show effort.

No way do the knicks win, but just for saying that the knicks will get it together and dominate the spurs, lol. Proving that we all don't know what the hell we are talking about!

Seriously, on paper the knicks match-up well with these guys. Knicks lack the experience.

Go knicks baby!

There is a way. I think we can beat them if we play at our absolute best. Thats the only way we beat anyone this season. Play our best. Lets hope for the best..

Da Bears lost to the Dolphins yesterday. The best have off-days. Let's hope RoboTim and friends have one (hopefully two) against us.

The Knicks do seem to play the Spurs tightly (except for last year) so as written earlier, if they play their best, it's definitely possible. This game is very important before going on the road.

I believe that we'll give the Spurs hell tonight, win or lose (hopefully WIN, though!)

We play SA again this week as well... Gotta split the series at least.
Another season, and more adversity to persevere through. We will get the job done, even BETTER than last year. GO KNICKS!

Knicks can definately win and if they do then the knicks are .500. Then what will the papers say on the back page?

I'm going to the MSG tonight and will do my best to spin the game in the most positive light, regarding the Knicks, no matter what.

Actual: "Marbury booed for entering the game"

My report: "MSG crowd 'ooohed' in support of our star PG. Didn't really notice the "ahhs" but maybe it was because I was talking about how much I love Zeke."

I remember when the spurs came to the garden last year... I never saw a game end so fast. It was like, it was over after the spurs first 4 posessions.

There is no way in jail that the knicks will win tonight.

Popovich hates what Isiah did to his mentor and friend LB( Zeke Humiliated him)
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

I don't think Paxon likes him either, b/c Isiah tried to make it seem like Paxon was shopping Gordon last year
