41 games in, and it's been a great ride as we discovered a young and exciting 2010 Knicks team. I have watched more games this season than in the past 2 or 3 years combined. I love it all, except for all the trade speculation (I only want Melo as a FA, and AR getting a shot to play with us !).

I'd like to know what were your favorite Knicks game to watch this season, what you thought was the best team performance, or the most exciting game...

I'd rank them like that :

#1 vs. Spurs : great 48 minutes of basketball, total team efforts, Amare and Felton at their best... we beat the best team in the NBA !
#2 vs. Nuggets : the Garden was rocking, the game was crazy with many splash plays... a lot of fun !
#3 vs. Bulls : on Christmas Day, the green jerseys, the Mariah Carey intro, and a great game against a very strong team

The best loss we had was probably our most exciting game... the one against the Celtics. The Pierce basket at the end of regulation, and STAT's 3-pointer after the buzzer.

Even though we lost, the games at the Garden against Boston and Miami felt like Playoff games.

The Celtics game was amazing, and the 1st half against the Heat was the best half I've watched all season... but because of the second half, I didn't put that one on my list.

Since I haven't watched all games this season, do you guys agree with my ranking, or have I missed some good ones ? I'll keep the top 5 games of the regular season on my computer (I didn't feel like that was necessary the past few years ;)).

Celtic game was amazing. To lose and still feel that good was great.

Nuggets game in Denver. Even though we lost, that turned the season around.

vs. Boston at MSG was the most exciting game.

vs. OKC at MSG was our best all-around win, on both the offensive and defensive end.

vs. Bulls on Christmas day was the most satisfying win.

I have the C's game as most enjoyable game to watch... I thought the San Antonio game was the best performance

Spurs, no question. ALthough, Stat's .4 sec three ptr was the most exciting moment.

I'm kinda surprised you guys don't mention the Nuggets win. I had great memories of that night, with Melo in the building and the high scoring offenses, dunkoramas, ball movements, ...

I didn't feel like the Thunder win was a better played game, as I felt the Thunder was playing sloppy ball during some parts of the game. Besides, the score wasn't that close so it's hard to qualify that win as one game that I'd like to watch again.

Spurs win was far and away the best win of the year.

best game was the celtics game even though we lost.

The Celtics game was awesome, still can't believe we lost that one. Terrible, so terrible.

That Celtics game really felt like a playoff game. It reminded me of how long it has been since we had the Garden rocking for a meaningful playoff game
