This games come at perfect time to show what are we up to.

1. They are the team playing with confidence and heart.
2. They are not delusional about themselfes.
3. They coached well.
4. They have no supperstars
5. They are not superior to Knicks in talent and skilles at any position.
6. They lost the players as we are

Are we up to the competition?
Will see soon...

Bosh is not a superstar?
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.

the raptors are a new team also. they shouldn't be used as a benchmark. they brought in 9 new players and 4 new starters. they're learning about each other just like we are.

benchmarks are against teams that have won for a few years. in the east, detroit and a healthy miami are benchmarks. on the schedule, dallas twice, cleveland twice, and then detroit, chicago, nj (twice) - those are benchmarks.

I don't think I'd call him a "superstar" persay... but he absolutely is a franchise player and I'd trade everyone on the Knicks for him (if it were possible).

I get you point but it is not fair.
We also brought a lot of new players, new coaoch, and basically restarted from scratch.
You cannot compare KIA with BMW
Thinking about Knicks as an elite bbal team is retarded.
We are not for a long time, and thinking that we are is not helping the team and mental health of the fans

We have a tough schedule coming up. We need to beat Toronto and NJ at least once. The real benchmark for this team will be NJ. We play them twice in the last week of the season. It is highly likely that we will need to win at least one of those games to get into the playoffs. IMO they are the team we need to beat to get over the so-called hump and prove that we belong in the playoffs.

Any combination of players on the Knicks squad is worth trading for Bosh, including Lee. I'd trade EY Curry, Francis, Nate, and Mardy for their point gaurds without batting an eye. Everything about their team is less experienced than the Knicks yet they are a more solidified team/franchise.

If in fantasy land Toronto were to ever talk Bosh trade with Knicks, Lee is on the table son. Bosh is that special player.
