Semi-dangerous game. I don't see the Knicks losing if they play well. They've won a couple without playing well, not playing well against the Mavs could end in a loss. Just because the starters played about 10 to 12 mins less last night does not guarantee anything, it's still a back to back with travel and interrupted sleep/rest. Hopefully, it will be the Mavs who'll have a bad game. Knicks 93 - Mavs 85.

I think we win this as long as:
a) We don't get flu Chandler Because I don't see how Dallas can attack without Dirk. |

The Dallas frontline were being talked up after the postgame last night like it was the 80's Celtics.
Kaman, Marion, Brand? Knicks can't be sloppy, but this surely isn't Memphis. Don't expect animals to stampede or tap dance as you approach.

Healthy Marion means Melo will have to earn his keep tonight.
As long as the Knicks stick to the same formula (Under 24 pts allowed a quarter, less than 10 turnovers, stay out of foul trouble), they should have a solid chance at the end of the game. Back to backs are always tough. Proud member of the Iman Shumpert fan club!

The Knicks have to get the jump on Dallas early, which between Melo, and Chandler and J-Kidd back in Dallas, I can see happening. Then the 2nd unit has to
Our margin for error is slimmer with this Mavs team, who will be trying extra-hard since we beat them at MSG. Our starters are rested after last night's blowout win. That's how quality teams do it. I don't see this game as a letdown risk, but moreso as a perfect time to reinforce the statement that the Knicks are already making and that the doubters have yet to believe- that this Knick team is for real. GO KNICKS! The Knicks will be retooled and RELOADED for the 2012-13 season! Get ready! GO KNICKS!

Hopefully early Brewer and Tyson can get off. I think they need to get Tyson involved early to keep him interested. He seems to play better D after a few looks on the offensive side. Also if Marion guards Melo Brewer has to exploit his mismatch against Brand. He has been doing great so far but he needs to finish around the rim because he is not a good FT shooter.

Took the Knicks in a 4 team parlay. I've bet on the Knicks during a single bet four times this season, have hit all 4 times. Today I included them in a 4 team parlay. $50 down for a chance at $500 flat. Lakers -6 over the Kings in SAC. Knicks -3 over the Mavericks in Dallas. Spurs -1.5 over the Celtics in Boston. Nets getting +2 against the Warriors on the road in G.S.
4 road teams, but I like these teams to win tonight. Do they cover the line? Time will tell. I'm not a big gambler, don't like throwing $50 away but that 50 will come and go. At least it has a chance to earn me $500. |

If the Knicks do what they have been doing they can win this game and keep this thing rolling. It's been about being able to hold teams down from their normal production levels and the Knicks being a team that values the ball. Low turnovers and smart, efficient BB. It's a numbers game. The Knicks don't have to do anything special. They just out execute teams to death. Execute defensive rotations, get hands up and shut down driving lanes. Exectute the offense and take smart shots. It's a very odd thing that you can't point and say that it's overwhelming individual talent like say the Heat, where Lebron and Wade make up for the real holes in their team.
Knicks just play the BEST TEAM BB. 2012-13 KNICKS - SHUT'EM DOWN!!!

The only thing I'm concerned with tonight game is that Collison kid.
Someone said he played scared against the Knicks in the Garden about a week ago and didn't play his game. Our Pg's have to funnel his speed into shot blockers and others have to shut off the passing lanes when he tries to penetrate and dish. When the Knicks scorers move the ball this become a whole different team, it gets everybody involved on both ends of the court.

I'm not worried about any Guard. Not even Wade once Shumpert returns. Kidd, Felton, J.R and Brewer... These guys can guard tough as nails. Once Shumpert returns? Good luck to opposing PG's and 2G's moving forward; they'll have to work hard for each and every shot attempt let alone bucket.

I agree never really broke that down..those are some strong defensive gritty guards to go against for 48 minutes. |
