This is most certainly not the days of VG, Riles, Zo, Ew, Oak, Ward, Brown, LJ. Man, I miss those days.

But on the other hand, Miami vs NY [Riles v JVG] were some of the most boring games to watch. Everything was hyped around rivalry.

Tonite should be a little more exciting. KVH will have the task. What do you think of Odom's game since joining the heat?

I loved every single second of every single one of those games. I was extremely excited to watch all those games and never really bored. I only wish I can go back to those days when the Knicks mattered.

Tonite though, the knicks win by 6. The Heat destroyed the Nets last night so they should remember this is not the same Heat team we blew you twice. I like Odom a lot so I thin this will be a good game.

The game tonight, wiil show case Frank at his best. Marbury is playing more minutes than everybody in the league and will need a lil rest because Miami like to run. Skip to my Lou has been knocking down 3's on a regular basis(he is on one of my fantasy teams)
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 still have to let it sink in that the Knicks are only 3 games out of first in the Atlantic Division. A win over the Heat would be great though, especially since the Celts and the Nets play tomorrow so a win tonight would guarnatee that we climb up a game on either of the two teams.

YAY!

We also play the celtics on the 30th so there will be another chance to pick up a game on them.

I think this will be a tough game to win. We are not exactly firing on all cylinders and the Heat have regrouped. I was talking to a friend of mine in Miami who said that Stan Van Gundy has won the respect of his team and they are playing hard for their coach again.

I'm soo happy we are talking about wining our division and playoff rounds again. It's awesome how much difference Isiah Thomas has made in 1 month. I just wonder what he will do in 2 or 3 years.

This is no gimme. The Heat have a pretty good frontcourt. The keys to me are 1) Trying to outrebound a pretty formidable front court with Brian Grant. 2)Playing Frank as much as possible to give Marbury and Houston the rest they need to be effective down the stretch.

this one is a tough one on the road but it's the 2nd game of a back to back for Miami. Maybe they come out flat, hopefully!

Miami may want to show the win over the nets aint no fluke. Nevertheless, we have a HOF coach, this game should be a blowout.

Last night we went against a 13-30 team (now 13-31) and barely beat them. Now you are saying that we are going to blowout a 17-26 team that just mauled the Nets (a team we haven't beat in so long). I know that we killed the Heat the last two times we played them but we aren't exactly playing our best basketball right now so I wouldn't be too confident of a blowout. If we do blow them out I will be happy but I would just settle for the win. I just hope they don't come into this game thinking that it will be an easy win.

Miami are a better team than they were the last time we played them. But so are we. These type of games against lower-echelon opponents are MUST wins for us.

True. Add that the Knicks have blown them out two times earlier this season ... I bet the Heat have studied the Houston tapes pretty hard.
