I hope Noah plays but this could be interesting.
Knicks coach Jeff Hornacek said if Noah doesn’t play, he’ll probably have two different starting lineups — one to begin the game and the other to start the second half. Kyle O’Quinn could slide in at center. Hornacek said he also may move Kristaps Porzingis to center and add a wing player to the starting unit — or perhaps an extra point guard in Brandon Jennings.

Espn doesn't even consider us a playoff team, yet were the first team on the docket, with many more to come

Hamstrings are the trickiest perhaps. I really hope he can play, I don't want to see KP at center too early in the season. And Kyle O' Quinn - well, I hope he performs...
Noah is basically the leader of the team by all accounts, very important having him out there.

I would be fine with seeing Willy get a bunch of burn, KOQ also. Not worried. Mostly just looking forward to seeing the squad back in action and the new faces.

Is Clyde doing the game? If so then MSG is for me. Unless its JVG then I will probably go back and forth.

Ditto, its been a long summer. We will also get to see how Jennings does running the point. Might end up being his team next season if it doesn't work out with Rose. Anything could happen.

He sure seems excited about being here! Its a talented crew. Curious to see how they blend as I see some pieces better suited for uptempo and others for half court.

I do like Jennings enthusiasm for being in NY, he's wanted to be a Knick since before being drafted. Phil might have signed him at the perfect time in his career, might not have been mature enough to handle NY in his younger days. Jennings to N'Dour could be a nice weapon in transition.

I think Jennings is going to be a lot of fun this year. Think he'll be a fan favorite.

totally... Kuz has seen some positive praise from the staff, I wonder how/which units he works in on.

Also what we see is not what we get. I am sure a few guys have cemented themselves in the rotation and the staff doesn't need them to earn their spot. Lance comes to mind. That being said I have no idea at all what to expect.

This is great. I've never been so tired of an offseason in my life. Why does it seem like it took longer than ever?

My main thing is to see how KP plays with these guards. Curious about Randle and Kuz. Can't wait for the opening tip!!!
