Nope, but I do think we drop 1. 21-6 before Christmas.
hopefully not to the nets taht would suck
Hopefully melo is back for that game.
Hopefully he is back monday. We need him to beat Houston
Houston scares me because they match up so well with us. they run they can shoot threes and they rebound
IrishKnicks; good call before the game today.
When you mentioned NY's recent struggles against Cleveland, I understood exactly what you meant. Wasn't harping or correcting anything or anyone; was only amped up heading into the game while trying to mention that lots these players (current Knicks team) weren't on our roster during those struggling time. Jason Kidd for example. Just talking ball. Good call though. It seems as if heading into the game you were mentally ready for a grind.
I'm not that worried about Houston though. I believe we'll find a way to win and could potentially win big. Especially if we return Melo at home inside of MSG. If the season were to end today, Jeremy Lin and the Houston Rockets don't make the playoffs. Only 11-11 overall. When thinking about it, all the pressure is on Jeremy Lin come Monday night, which gives Melo an extra day/night of resting up. I don't think Melo walks away from this matchup. Not against Harden and Lin. Not at home in New York he doesn't. If he's able walk, I believe he'll be lacing up.
But yea, if we could live through Irving's jaw-dropping performance tonight, I'm more than ready for a Raymond Felton vs Jeremy Lin showdown at the PG position. This is what basketball is all about.
Portlant, Indy, Toronto, Detroit, Milwaukee, Cleveland, Chicago, Wahsington, Miami (regular season loss), Boston, Los Angeles Clippers, Miami (postseason loss), Miami (postseason win), Philadelphia, Dallas, Indiana, Detroit, Milwaukee, Washington, Phoenix, Denver, Los Angeles Lakers and Cleveland.
We've put up a home record of 22-2 dating back to when coach Woodson took over. Simply amazing. Coach Woodson has done something to this team. He's done something to this franchise. We believe in greatness (as a team) because of this man. It's been like this since day one too. Miami's been the only team who've gotten the best of coach Woodson here in New York since taking over. 2-2 against Miami at home (since Woodson).
