I predict another loss and mass existential panic from Knicks fans.
I still think this team can be good, but it may take a while. Deep breaths, everyone. ¿ △ ?

I think they'll 45-47 as well, but that's not good enough around here. You have to say the Knicks match up with nearly every team in the NBA especially a team that just won the title. Otherwise you're a fake fan.....lol.

I think it gets testy when some say the Knicks aren't trying to win now after going out and getting Noah, Rose, Lee and Jennings while already having KP and Melo. Winning now might be making the playoffs or the second round of the playoffs. I think Phil wants KP to experience the playoffs and he realizes that he has a star in Melo that is aging and needs to be on a competitive team. As a fan I think you have to be realistic but also hope that the Knick team comes together and peaks at the playoffs like '99. I'm tired,I'm tired, I'm so tired right now......Kristaps Porzingis 1/3/18

There were several in this thread....http://www.ultimateknicks.com/forum/topic.asp?t=55214 But anyway, I actually think very few think the Knicks wont make the playoffs. You are right, folks need to be realistic, which many are not, especially if you're hoping for something quite unlikely like a similar repeat of'99. |

With Memphis trying to emphasize the three ball this season, this will be a good test for our defense. We need to do a decent job of closing out.
Always... always remember: Less is less. More is more. More is better and twice as much is good too. Not enough is bad, and too much is never enough except when it's just about right.

They've had plenty of time to go over tape, will be interesting to see what adjustments are made, from the coaches to the players. We saw in the first half of the opening that the Knicks can hang with good teams, its about how long they can stay mentally tough IMO, keep it together.
