I did say I wouldn't be posting here again and I wont. But I believe in positive karma and I think we should keep a good thing going. It sounds lame but I'll do anything so I can see the Knicks win. If I believe my threads make a difference I'll keep making them. Last game I did not, which means this game it is time to kick some ass!

Just win, baby.

Game Thread record thus far: 3-1

Notes

Eddy Curry is still fat and not playing due to a hamstring injury.
Kelena Azubuike is out recovering from a knee injury.
Michael Redd is still injured.
Earl Boykins is still in the NBA and on the Bucks.
Corey Maggette is shooting 36% from the field.
John Salmons is making his way back from an injury.
Andre Bogut and Brandon Jennings must be stopped.
Bucks are a decent team.
Knicks must win.

Bogut is really tough. He's the key to that team. Jennings shoot a **** % so the more scoring he looks for the better for us. If we can got Bogut in foul trouble this is an easy win for us. We dont really have someone to match up with with him. I think Jennings is a non factor and you will see a lot of Douglas/Felton together because Jennnings/Salmons will have major problems dealing with that combo

Yeah, but what are the odds that Jennings and Salmons are magically cured before our eyes and shoot a high percentage just for tonight? That Sixers game has rattled my confidence in this team and their ability to prevent the terrible 'scrub of the game' affliction that we've suffered from the past few years...

Hmm... It's a winnable game, but with the Knicks that doesn't necesserily mean their going to win it! (And that kind of inconsistancy goes way back to even when we were good! Though i'll be honest, I sometimes like the unpredictability)- hope we pull it off, we need to win as many of these coming games as possible to help cushion the brutal December/Jan stretch.

well the hope is it rattled the Knicks as well. It really is a work on progress but this team plays hard. You always hope the setbacks are one step back and two steps forward. This is where coaching comes in. The players are giving good effort on both ends. They are all doing the little things and the big things you need to do to win. The 76rs got our scrappy guards in foul trouble and made us shoot through a zone and their strategy beat us.

Now its up to MDA and his staff to do their part. Find some plays to break that. Improve the P&R and find a way to keep Jennings out of the paint and hopefully push Bogut off the block.

I'm very happy to talk coaching strategies and player development over who is playing hard or cares

this would be a huge win for us. i think we're very evenly matched with the bucks. possibly a bit better.

last season the bucks were really propelled by john salmons playing way over his head - the only other time salmons has played that well was the OTHER time he was gunning for a new contract. with his new contract in hand it seems like he's coasting again.

i hope we can get this one. need to see a much improved defensive effort - scott skiles' team is always well coached.

Losing that last game might be a blessing coming into this one. The team should be focused and anxious to erase the bad taste from that loss.

The team is quick to erase the taste of victory too.

You guys know what I mean. It's natural for players to look at the schedule and see a team that they think will be an easy win and take things for granted. The Knicks clearly didn't have the same intensity and focus against Philly and now after losing I think it may have taught them a lesson about taking any team too lightly. They should be out for blood against the Bucks.

trust Berman to dig up the injury to bogut last year and remind us all of it just before tip-off. Can somebody get this guy a roto-rooter uni?

Hope that Felton's back is not an issue. Hurt it a couple of games ago and it resurfaced vs Philly, where we got to see him in the dreaded "watching the game while lying on stomach" position.
