interesting stat from the clippers game that they flashed at the start of the 4th quarter- the knicks are 18 & 0 when leading after 3 periods.

I'm not sure what other teams records are after 3 when leading- but that, to me is a huge number and it says that when this team is playing well, we're a good team- problem is we're inconsistent.

The knicks could go 18-14 the rest of the way- I doubt it- they haven't had a good stretch of playing good ball- and certainly to be 4 over five hundred over 40 games is asking a lot.

Best case scenario is we just miss- we give the bulls a low lottery pick and isiah is fired.

18-14 is not out of the question, we're 17-17 over the last 34 games.

the key is to not let Francis play, he screws up rotations too much, Crawford and Marbury look like crap when Francis plays. we're 7-14 with Francis, 15-14 when he doesn't play.

We won't make it, I don't see Miami, Orlando or Indiana faltering that badly. Orlando maybe. Heat have won 6 straight, seem to be getting it together.

Orlando is 11-20 over their last 30 games. they've been faltering for months now.

The knicks going 18-14 for the rest of the season is possible

After losing Big Ben, Detroit recovered nicely by getting C Webb. C Webb's no Big Ben, but he's helping that team a lot. Man he must be so happy to have gotten out of Philly and to be contributing to the top team (record-wise) in the conference.

I couldn't agree more Crzy. If Marbury was still struggling I could understand but he's playing great and I do not want to see a miniscule backcourt again!

18 and 0 when we lead after 3 periods.....does that mean we are 4-28 when we are down after 3 periods?

That's if they don's shoot anyone else first.
