Afflalo has been diabolical this season- he'd better not explode over us. Nuggets have stunk so far, but showed signs of life in their last game. Although I'm liking the idea of a high pick, all this losing depresses me- plus I don't like the idea of TKF gloating, so here's hoping Melo destroys his former team!

I hate Sunday afternoon games. Hope this one turns out well for the Knicks.

The times of the games played have

Nothing to do with a team being successful or not


But maybe those who thought we weren't a 50win

Team chalked up losses on each one of the early matinee's


Based on past performances, just saying

Don't hope be absolutely optimistically certain

Me too- I approach them with a feeling of absolute dread. Feels like we have stunk in afternoon games for so many years...

Hope we get a win for morale purposes- all the losing is going to start taking it's toll soon.

Shump is likely out, Amar'e is back.

How dare they, those terrible Knick fans who were excited and thought we'd do better than we are doing! Wouldn't these boards be great if everyone just posted how we suck 24/7, 365 days a year! That would be AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

I like doing things during the day on Sunday. The games pull me in and drag me down. Its not a matter of dreading the outcome.

i am making a conscious decision to not watch the giants play-- too painful. i may catch the last 10 minutes of the game once the knicks are through. cannot stand the msg postgame 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%

I watch in spurts but I don't sit and watch full games unless the weather is really bad.

I was getting ready to get mad

But he has to start Smith


Wonder what his reasoning starting Acy is

So going forward once Shump gets back healthy


Put him back in place of Smith

If he changes the lineup again, seriously he needs to be checked on this

Would rather it have been THJR

But someone was going to be inserted


According to our board reviews would THJR have been better

I want to see some closure with starting lineups going forward

my opinion is that they are both bad on this version of the team, but to me thj is a less bad option for a number of reasons.

The irony is Timmy has been playing like JR has over the years...unbridled in shot selection and nothing else to the table. JR has actually bought in to the point he doesnt shoot nearly as much but still does dumb stuff on the court...like punching an opponents nuts.

Ugh an early game and a game against the Nuggets. This could definitely get bad quickly...
Knicksfan: Hypocrite league that fines players after the game for flopping but in the game and with obvious flopping they call the fouls.

Sunday games after Christmas if the weather sucks. I don't watch 1pm football games either. If its important I can always DVR it.

If the "BEST FANS" or only the true believers watch every minute, then count me out. Just not something I can do even if its a championship season..
