You really had no reason to lose to us last night.. You guys are going to come out motivated, focused, and aggressive which is just overkill for a team that beat Boston 2 out of 2 recently. Your average game is enough to kill us. Oh well, more ping pong balls for us, yay.

Losing to the Knicks once was a shame; losing to them twice in a row would be an embarrassment, and would virtually undo the two wins over Boston. So we'd better win.

That being said, I think we've got this one.

3 Tough Games + Short Rotation & Heavy minutes for starters = Getting beat by the Knicks.

It won't happen again.

Would really like to see more production from the bench. That's why we lost yesterday, with the starters having played so many minutes over the weekend the bench *had* to come through and they didn't.

N1 is playing better defense. I'd like to see him go off for 17 again. Blatch is also due for another double digit points game.
Help us, Obi-wan Leonsis. You're our only hope.

Jamal Crawford looked even more impressive killing the Nets down the stretch.

The Wizards will have to play well to beat the Knicks.
Bye bye Beal.

the power of a donkey thread........and an 8 ball. i like it. we don't lose to New York 2 times in a row. Crowford can't go off again. it's impossible. the 8 ball doesn't lie

Sweeping the Mets in Shea during the last week of the season to knock them out of the playoffs, priceless. :nod:

thanks for that. that put my Phils in the playoffs. granted, we got swept by the rockies, but hey, we made the playoffs :clap:

as for the game we're supposed to be talking about: There's NO way that we lose to NY twice in a row (of course, there was NO way that we were supposed to beat Boston twice in a row.) If we lose this one, the Boston wins are pointless. You can't go beat Boston twice and lose to NY twice. it's just not right.

We needed the rest. Now we are ready for revenge.

Not only that, but I feel a run coming on.
I feel this team gelln. Its all up to us having AD healthy.

NOV 7-8
DEC 8-5
JAN, 5-2 this month. Soon to be 6-2

We beat Boston on back to backs recently so we have proven something.
We already beat Dallas in Dallas. Now we get them at home.
We already beat Cleveland but this game is there.
MEM isnt good. On a 5 game lossing steak as of today.
WIL rack up another W. We beat teams we should.

Then we get TOR who we already beat on our only back to back.

I could see us going 6-1 but lets call it 5-2

That would be a 10-4 JAN 25-19 +6 .568 %

We are going to need to take these games. Feb looks rough.

It's the Knicks 3rd game in 4 days and they have a game tomorrow. They were on the road yesterday, and they are on the road today.

If you guys don't know the affects of 4 games in 5 nights, including the 4th game on the road after beating the best team in the league twice, you don't know basketball.
