... well, it's certainly a time to take advantage of the schedule, that's for sure.

you know Phili went out west and won like 4 of 6. We just have to play better and the wins will come, bottom line. Getting healthy cant hurt either. If we can get Jamal and Sweetney back, keep JYD in the starting line up and find a little chemistry we will be fine.

I know a lot of people think the next 6 games will be a joke for us, but that is not true. Chicago has been one of the hottest teams lately and I have seen them play several times this season. The Bulls are a team that can destroy us if we don't show up with any effort to any of the 2 games we play them. They really have been starting to embody Skiles' hard work ethic and will not be an easy team to beat, they kind of remind me of last year's Utah Jazz. Plus, the Raptors won't be an easy team to beat especially on the road where we tend to struggle. Toronto has been playing some good ball since the Carter trade and won't be an easy team to beat at all. As for the Rockets, they aren't playing bad basketball either and will most likely challenge us like they did the first time we met them this season which was in Houston (see Jamal Crawford buzzer beater). I think the Hornets game and the Bucks game are really the only two games that are close to "sure-bet" wins. The other 4 games however, will be a good test in showing where we are in the league.

... a joke for us? This team? You're talking about the New York Knicks, right?

Lol, its not my opinion, just talking about a lot of the other Knick fans who seem to think that the next 6 games will be a piece of cake for us

Nothing is ever going to be a gimme for this team, but over the next stretch, you have to like our chances. This next game is about as close to a gimme as we're going to get. Have to make the most of it.
