Eddie Griffin is gonna do what he did to Philly-------BALL
JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

Griffin is great and playing great. He's got his crapp worked out and is playing like the lottery pick he was drafted as a couple years ago.

If the Wolves were just KG they would be headed for another first round exit. Spree, Cassel, Hassle, Wally, Kandi, Griffin, Hoiberg.. they have a better team than we do plain and simple. Probably the only matchup we clearly win is center, and ask the Wolves if they are worried about Nazr Mohammed beating them. My guess is no

We clearly win at PG too. He's really slowed down. He's just an ordinary 15/5 PG now who's aging.

I would not write off Sam I Am on a night to night basis. He's so crafty that he's capable of wrecking anyone on any given night still.

Re: Griffin if I recall he had a few strong games in a row then just did nothing in extended minutes for several in a row following that. i think he should still be looked at as highly experimental and not in any way an established threat.

KG should be covered by KT, TT, and JYD. Foul the hell out of him rather than allowing dunks. Also, the Knicks should take it to the hole and try to get him in foul trouble, since he is the main shot blocker on that team, aside from Eddie Griffin, who may see major minutes or may not. I think we match up well with this team. They are finesse and so are we. Run and gun just like Orlando. Hopefully, we win by 5, 110-105.
We could be the Dallas Mavs of the East.

Yep. Completely Agree. I thought Griffin was ready to explode but that doesnt seem to be the case.

My wish list:

#1 TT punish Wally. Treat him like Battie. Just run roughshod over him. I'll admit it - I'm ready to totally forgive TT for the first 20 games. His emergence is HUGE for this team.

#2 Nazr put that fool Kandi to sleep early. just rock him, swat him, bury him. Plus use your dekes underneath, live at the line, foul his sad ass out.

#3 JYD, Sweets and KT work KG on every single possession. Make him sweat and work and wear him out. Battle him non-stop.

I think this is a game to be won in the paint. Let's go Knicks.

Steph is looking so focussed out there.

TT looked good on his basket.

H20 gotta drain one.
