I said 49 before the season started but I think they are better than I realized. I do think age and injuries will catch up to some extent. I'd predict 53 wins now.

I thought around 50. Still think the same. We will go through some ups and downs, injuries, etc. but we are still deep enough to win around 50, a very good win total.

With a strong defense and depth, I felt the team could win 55 games and I still think it's possible. They will have some tough games but this team is built to be able to make it hard for teams to run what they want. Good jump shooting teams are the biggest threat. If the Knicks perimeter D remains focused on taking away any space from shooters they'll have a big year. This has been the best thing to see this year. The perimeter D has been strong and with all the size we have to back it up, this team is built very well for a strong season.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Bonn, this made me cry. Almost.


I say breaking the 15-0 to start the season is in the bag. Only one 12-game winning streak away!

I said 50-54 before the season began. I think I'm upping my prediction to the 55 win area, because...why the hell not? I've over predicted every year, maybe the team will catch up to me this time.

I said 52, then down to 48.

Im not changing. Mans got to go with with the decision made.

at 4-0 I look wrong.

INcluding the make up game with the Nets the knicks play 8 or the next 10 ON THE ROAD.

So the "first 20" might be a better indicater.

Sometimes your best off with the first "Guess".

I changed it. I don't think one changes once the season started.

Whole idea was to predict the season, not change it as the wins do.

My pre-season prediction was 54 Wins, so hopefully I'm wrong and underestimated them.

I voted 52. I believe there is enough bad teams that the knicks will not loss to this year because of the leadership and defense!
In the Knick of time. Knickal for Your thoughts.

I vote 60+ And I predict Knicks hovers between 1st and 2nd place all the way to post-season. Miami Heat have already tasted victory so they're going to bask in the sun and get lazy.

I like this thread but I think its still to early. Never expected a Miami blow out and beating Philly twice but I think I'll revisit this thread after 10 games

50-54 wins is where I'm at. Hopefully they'll do better but I'll take that in a heart beat.

I can't remember what I said but I'm saying now close to 55. I believe they have the talent to do better but they have to stay healthy and incorporate more players into the rotation.

I voted 20-24 purely for reverse-jinx purposes.

These next few games will give us a better idea where the Knicks are- brutal Spurs/Grizz back to back, Pacers, Hornets (playing better than expected- I like their coach), Mavs and Rockets. Those last 4 aren't elite teams but they can beat teams that don't come prepared.

I voted 40-44- I still am not convinced of this roster holding up, and hey, I've been a knick fan too long to get my hopes up.

We have only played 4 games- the next stretch is going to say a lot about this squad, and whether its legit or not.
