Can we win 3 straight?? I THINK WE CAN and I THINK WE WILL

Will the game be postponed?? We're expecting a pretty bad snow storm Monday afternoon and its going to last through the night.

8-12 inches of snow expected, will the game be postponed? Lakers have off Tuesday and we dont play again till Friday, maybe game will be changed to Tuesday

I hope they dont postpone it. Lakers are coming off 2 losses:one on friday vs detroit and one sunday night vs raptors. Any time the opposing team comes in tired ...i'm happy.

Hopefully we'll see some of the new guy, Butler, even for just a couple of minutes.

I hope we win...I cant stand Kobe.

I don't think the game will be cancelled. I hope it doesn't since the Lakers played last nigth and lost. Would be nice to face them on a back to back for them. Just give us a little more of an advantage or hope.

I picked the Knicks to beat the Lakers without realizing they are playing a back to back. Now I'm sure the Knicks will win!

I don't know why, but suddenly I feel that the Knicks can win any games...

Nazr wasn't at athletic as I thought. That boy can't jump and can't finish around the rim. When you combine he and Kurt Thomas, Marb really doesn't have much to work with.

Your alleged "obstacle to success" Kurt Thomas has been one of the biggest reasons for the last 2 wins.

Listen, I am not taking anything away from Kurt. He has done a good job for the Knicks, but pairing him with another unathletic player at the front court was a very big dillema. It was one or the other..One of them had to go.

hopefully Kurt Thomas can keep up at this ridiculous pace so that we can get a mid 1st round pick for him. Because lets face it..as well as he is playing he is 32 and we need stars not more role players. We need athletism in the frontcourt and blocks.

I totally welcome a trade of Kurt for a first rounder, because you are right, he is 32. Although he has a pretty affordable contract, but we have too many guys at the PF position and we will need to trade a couple of them to get the pieces that we desperatly need. Kurt is very covetted and teams will want him at the end of the season... especially with less years remaining with his contract...

I like KT so much more at C than at PF...I hope he keeps his mouth shut...His jumpers bring out the center making it easier for us to rebound especially with a shorter Sweetney, Rose and JYD under there....he keeps saying he is this great PF but does he realize he almost made the All-Star team as a center a couple years ago?

yep because at center he doesn't have to get beat off the dribble by ever single PF because he's guarding slower bigger players.

And offensively he's a headache for centers because they hate guarding the perimeter.

And still Kurt Thomas thinks he's a great PF!

I have this theory that its better to play a team after a win on the first game of a back to back. If we manage to lose this game I won't be surprised.

I hope they don't postponed this game or a matter of fact I hope I get to see this game on TV (damn comcast).

Kobe better not have another Sportscenter Top 10 dunk in the Garden!!

That is just to prove to you how dumb Lenny was for identified a solution to our frontline but never had enough balls to experiment with it....All through training camp we've heard of the use of Kurt as our center with Sweetney as our PF, but they never tried it..

Ditto.

I think these next two games eill be extremely telling.

Tonight against the talented, but still unimpressive 8th seed fighting Lakers and Kobe (if we get stomped, hello lottery).

And Herb getting 3 days to work in some of the new blood and continue to instill a defensive scheme for our next game on Friday against the reeling Magic.

I'm going to lose my voice tonight at the game (hopefully).

As usual, go knicks (ut oh...after I post this my name will show up on the main list and nimrod is gonna blast me.)

Sorry fellas.
all kool aid all the time.
