19-16 since the brawl.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

shorter rotations is better for this team.

definitely, but also having depth on the bench is good for those back to backs when the starters lack energy.

this pace projects out to a 44 - 45 win team over a full 82. This is the standard I expect to reach next season. otherwise i will concede that I will be disappointed with anything less next year.

I'm glad we've been winning more than we've been losing. It is really about time this team puts a string of wins together. It is an absolute must for this team to show some consistency (especially at such a crucial time like this). Tonight is a BIG test.

I think this has been said for like the last 20 games straight.

i agree. even the celtics and philly are on 4 game win streaks. this team can't feel vindicated by getting close or showing signs that they're a playoff team. we need to take advantage and earn it.

Notice that it happened once you figured out that you were supposed to cheer the home team and boo the visitors.

Get it together DJ, we're on the home stretch. While tonight may not be make or break, I'm expecting you to show up in the first quarter.

oohah

Good luck Mike D'Antoni, 'cause you ain't never seen nothing like this before!

I'm guessing the make or break game will be sometime next season.

This is a good "moral victory" but there is only one win-loss measure that matters. In the immortal words of Bill Parcels, "you are what your record says you are." This team is .459... while it is definitely better than I expected this season, but still not good.

I don't see what's so bad about setting a minimum expectation of being a .500 club. The .542 win percentage isn't good enough. They needed a .686 winning percentage over that stretch to be considered respectable.

In other words, the Knicks needed to be great to offset how terrible they were in the beginning of the year... just to be a decent, .500 team.

FootBall is way different. Every game matters so much in FootBall. Each NFL game is worth FIVE nba games in the standings. So that Parcells soundbite is just ESPN-noise in my ear. Watching the team these last two months, we have seen a team which wons more than they lose. If this were the NFL, starting the season 5-11 was three seasons ago. We're NOT now what our overall record indicates. We are how we've been playing lately. If all there were to sports analysis were glancing at the standings why have message boards. Why analyze anything?

Good reasoning especially when you consider they played several teams during that stretch missing Superstars/All-Stars/Bonafied Starters. They went on a quick little 3gm winning streak after the brawl and have played .500 ball since. During this stretch they have been BLOWN TO SMITHEREENS by Philly(2), Charlotte(2), Miami(with no Wade or Shaq), and Golden State. They have accomplished this during the easiest part of their schedule.

Their remaining schedule consist of 21 games 15 of those against teams in the playoff hunt.

Other then being 2-8 against our divison, which boggles or "Bottles" my mind, this team is playing pretty good basket ball............... Insert hate Now.
