Gotta love that Gary Coleman.

Can't really get too concerned, these Nets JUST got Devin Harris back, and they were pretty back last year already, when they had Richard Jefferson and Vince Carter. What the Knicks did is what 12 teams before them did, beat the team currently in last place, which is no major feat, and they only won by 7, and failed to score 100 points against them. As long as they finish in the bottom 5 I'm happy, and I'm pretty sure they will cause they have nothing to play for, no one is happy, they know they don't have a lottery pick, most of them are fighting for contracts (not a good thing when they aren't exactly winners), etc.. Team is just all out of wack. :-P

Sure, because we're probably better than Denver and LA, and that pick is less important than winning a championship THIS year, right?


P.S. How's life on planet Delusional?


I don't think Denver is much better than we are. When healthy, I think we beat them in a series. I don't give up on the Jazz like you do. And you are quite annoying, I'm about to put you on ignore.

New York with a loss, but they looked good against Boston, hopefully that little winning streak they were on haven't given them that much confidence to become to turn that train wreck around.

Yes...a 2 point loss to Boston in OT is something to be legitimatley concerned about. Hopefully we aren't seeing them turn the corner here.

NY's current record: 3-10

NY's final record if win% is unchanged: 19-63

I really cant see the Knicks losing at this pace all year. They can win 23-29 games this year, which is still good for the Jazz.

It would take a real improvement for them to get to 30 games.

Thats a good sign. Though it does seem that they are playing better. Hopefully KG's shot took their wind.

What do you think about them targeting T-mac. I think he'd be a good addition depending on what they give up for him.

I wouldn't put any stock into it. Dolan owns Newsday, so I never believe anything that comes from that paper.

If you see the replay for that shot, you will see KG pushing Chandler but no call... We played our best game so far this year and still lost :-?
Now we have a tough road schedule so we can be something like 4-15 soon

Well the Knicks lost again!

I think Memphis is showing they are clearly a better team than the Knicks, and I am just waiting for the Nets to break through with that first win because I think they should be better than the Knicks when they get Courtney Lee back.

Yeah, as soon as the Nets get on a roll they have a chance to win high 20s or low 30s in games. They've had a much harder sched than the Knicks, and have nearly won quite a few games, including losing on a buzzer beater to the Heat IN Miami.

Plus the buzzer beater to the Wolves. Not that the Wolves are any good but it is still one of those games that you win more often than you lose on a last shot opportunity.

When you have a big guy capable of putting up 30/10, a very capable PG and some solid young wing players you won't lose all season long, eventually they will put it together and make a run for the Knicks.

Forget the Church of Okur, we need to start the Church of Duhon.

2-8 FG including 1-7 3P, 7 pts, 1 reb, 2 assists, 1 stl in 28 minutes tonight at the starting PG.

I love that guy.

Chris Duhon for the season:

6.4 pts, 5.9 assts, 3.1 rebs, 1.2 stls, 1.8 TO's. 24% FG, 19% 3P, 34 MPG.

This guy is awesome.
