Sounds like a horror movie.

Hopefully, the boys will be able to produce and get some more wins.

1/30 vs Magic
2/1 vs Bucks
2/2 vs Kings
2/4 vs Pistons
2/6 at Wizards
2/8 at Wolves
2/10 vs Clippers

Magic should be a win. Orlando is having a lot of problems and is on a 6 game losing streak right now.

Bucks is going to be tough. Hopefully, Knicks can tame new Knick killer Mike Dunleavy. Kid always seem to play well against the Knicks. Knicks also have problems with fast guards and Ellis and Jennings are very fast. Just make sure we rebound and stop them from running. This team is pretty fast. Ilyasova is another player that gives us problems.

Kings should be a win. Unless we let Isaiah Thomas torch us then we should be fine. Not worried about Cousins, he is a nut job. IT and the 2nd game of a back-to-back is the only thing that worries me.

Pistons are crap. It would be embarrassing if we lost to this team. This should be a win.

Wizards. Surging team? They have beaten the Nuggets @ Denver, Blazers @ Portland, Wolves, Bulls in the past 2 weeks. They also hanged tough against the Clippers @ LA and the Jazz @ Utah. This is a game to watch. Wall is going to be a problem.

Wolves. Rubio, Shved and Barrea are going to be tough. Pekovic is a big man. AK47 plays Melo pretty well. The is a scary game. Knicks win at the buzzer.

Clippers. Ouch. Jamal Crawford will explode. I think Knicks are losing this one.

6 and 1? I can see it but I can also see this going south and ending up with 3 and 4.

Agreed; don't like the Wiz on the road. Not guarding Wall is not going to be fun to watch.
Not hopeful that Shump will be up to the task by then.

5-2 at the least, very well could be 6-1.

hopefully we go at least 5&2

the fact that you can't even have an unrelated thread without some tool here bringing him up make me think that rational minds are few and far between. Bunch of emotionally weak, angst riddled people. I mean, how many times can you argue the same shyt

Any night could be a let down, and I'm not fully convinced I'd be "shocked" against any of those teams pulling off the upset.

That said, I'm putting on my homer glasses and calling 7-0. Minnesota's 1-9 in the last 10. Love is still out, isn't he? Washington had a nice 7-3 stretch that surged their way to 29th best team in the league...

Clippers will be a tough match, and is the obvious pick for the obligatory loss, but just like any night could be the let down, this team can beat any team on any given night. Clips are the company we want to be in. Knicks win a close one at home.

4-3, I hate to look ahead but Knicks are very unpredictable. Doesn't matter what the opponent good or bad. They can lose any game anytime.

that is any team. Like they say in football, Any given Sunday. And yes I am a proud homer, people act like there is something wrong with that.

this stretch is a test of coaching leadership and player leadership-- it's likely to reveal the character of the team.
knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

Any team can lose on any night, this applies to every team in the NBA. The Knicks just need to go out and play hard and the wins will come. If they go out and take their opponents lightly then they will lose some games they should not.

Wolves are dreadful. Too many injuries. Can see losing to Wizards or Clips. Every other game better be a win!

That is a scary schedule a lot of those teams have centers that can go off.

I put a question mark next to Minne because I was thinking Memphis. Mark Minne for a win too :)

Losing to the wiz, are you kidding me, Ive been to a lot of knicks wiz games in dc, aside from the arena (verizon center) being the worst places to watch a game (food is awful, only domestic beers) it's 65% knick fans that attend..There playing beeter since wall has return, but he's not putting up monster #s by any stretch..

we neeed to get on a 5 or 6 game win streak, despite 1 back to backs I think this is relatively a soft part of the schedule..A lot of home games, we need to take advantage...

I'm going with 4 & 3, based on recent inconsistent form. You just know we will lose some games we should win.

I agree. This isn't like the Rocket schedule in January, but with the Knicks age and injuries this could be a problem. I still think they can go 6 and 1 but some of these teams pose some problems.

If the Knicks can weather this storm and play tough the rest of February then they will be in great shape entering March then April. March is going to test this team. Hard.

Agree- we need to go on a run in Feb because March is absolutely brutal, and April ain't much better.

I hope this team hits this stretch looking for blood

5 of seven at home.

If they are in the contending conversation they need to make a good run at it otherwise there are plenty of teams nipping at our heels!

Should be fun stretch to keep an eye on!
