picked the Knicks to win the Atlantic. Dont know what to make of that, except a fair amount of them think there is some talent on this current team.

Personally I think we win a fair amount of games and are in a fight for the division. I picked us to win 45-48 games. What makes me excited is that the core of our rotation is about 9 years younger than it was at the start of last year.

Also, I am 1000% convinced if GMs could do the draft over Ariza would be picked in the late to mid first round. After one draft and only a late 2nd rounder I'm pretty excited about Isiah's ability to execute there.

I read the article on how IT found out about ariza, and madkins who used to play for UCLA( I actually remmeber him) was scouting for the knicks and he turned IT onto ariza. what I like most is that thomas knew about ariza way before the draft and kept this kid under the radar....
