Should be entertaining.

Even when we lose we win. Why do we win if we lose? If we lose D'Antoni gets fired and a trade to shake things up happens.

smakeeddog - Mozgov STARTS for Denver.

yeah, but he's one of those 'starters' who only play limited minutes because they're really bench players- though tonight he will probably look like a god!

Who goes off in this game Mozgov?

During last night's debacle, Clyde stated to Bernard King that "this is the bottom."
I think that he was a game premature.
As bad as it is right now, it's gonna get uglier after tonight.

I don't know if I'm in the minority here. But, I hope Denver blows us off the floor.

It's not about being fan anymore. The lack of vision and respect this franchise has shown towards it's fans is downright disgraceful. Having to sit through Layden, Thomas and even Grunwald is embarrassing in itself. Having an owner that literally takes any joy out of watching a team has the audacity to raise prices after the team backed into the playoffs and got swept just put the icing on the cake.

We are in Marbury territory right now; all we had to do was stand pat and target a guy like Varejo in a trade to improve the defense. Instead we traded for a center that isn't top five in the east and can't score the basketball. We have no talent left in our system and have no way to move Amare if things don't get better.

This game will tell you everything you need to know about these guys. And it's not going to be good.

We need to drive Melo to NJ before it's too late.

Growth Chart

smakeddog - does is REALLY matter how many minutes The Moz plays?

The point is that Mozgov has developed a left hand.

The problem is that i think both melo and amare's trade value has gone down because of poor play and their contracts

Game notes:
Al Harrington has been lighting it up from the 3 in the last 4 road games, making 12 out 19 shots from behind the arc.
Nene is day to day with a heel injury.

Call the undertaker because this is going to be a burial.
KNICKSBIGCATS @ 1/21/2012 11:56 AM
The Nuggets 2nd unit is what distinguishes them from other teams top to bottom.
We have no answer to Andre Miller playing the point, Harrington or Fernandez doing the shooting, and Birdman and Corey Brewer continuing their defensive prowess.

This game will be lopsided at halftime.

We blow the Nuggets out tonight!!!!!!

This can be a kind of season changing win, or a one that simply turns this spiral of doom up another level. This game will truly bring out the sharks if we lose; there is already blood in the water

As Roy Scheider said in JAWS,
"You're gonna need a bigger boat."

To any of you out there that will be attending tonight's game. I beg you to please let us real Knick fans voices be heard !!! Not all the rich corporate dudes that go to the games and discuss business deals and never even watch the game. They obviously make up a large portion of the crowd and they could care a less about our Bockers. I know there will be thousands of real fans at the Garden tonight, and for all of us who can't be there. I ask you to let those bums know that this dogshit effort and wussyass coach will NOT be tolerated by us Knick fans. I will have my volume way up and even though MSG network will try to drown it out, I want you all to please, please, please let them freaking HAVE IT !!!!!!!
JCrusher @ 1/21/2012 4:55 PM
As big of a Knicks fan as i am the team needs to earn back the trust and support. I mean i dont mind losing a game they should have once in a while buts its happening a lot so far and there is no toughness or determination
mack23quick @ 1/21/2012 5:42 PM

The Knicks gotta pull this one off tonight. Losing four home games in a week is really repulsive..that's not the kind of baggage you want to take on a road trip. They need te gain some sort of momentum and it needs to be tonight. Denver is looking pretty good this year. They have a lot of weapons and lead the NBA in PPG. LET'S GO KNICKS!
