"Hi, I'm Mike Dantoni. According to basketball legend and resident hoops genius, Bill Walton, I am a coaching legend.
My job is on the line right now, so all my years of professional coaching acumen are pointing me to the fact that I'm going to start a 4th string PG tonight..."
Lin starts and
will be coaching in China by March.
If Lin starts, or plays starter minutes we will win.

Yup Yup. I would even go as far as Lin gettting something close to a triple double against Detroit.
media everywhere is ready to fire MDA if we do not win this game. Should be interesting come 10pm tonight. Don't see Phil had coaching this year but definitely replacing interim coach Mike Woodson in the offseason.
Skipped the Houston game, took a nice long weekend without even reading any Knicks news, and I have to tell you, I'm feel energized once again.
That said, tonight's a win, Baron or no Baron, Melo or no Melo, Lin or...well no, we need him.
Just hold down the fort tonight. Team Yin is almost done. Team Yang is right around the corner.

With due respect, have you been watching the last 10 games?
Where's the scoring gonna come from?
Strong and rested? Too much optimism.
Our FG percentage is not going to change overnight.
The Knicks are a fractured group with an inept leader.
Refer to Murphy's Law....it will predict the outcome for this game.
I'm a Knicks fan. For a game thread I want to be more upbeat.
Yes, the team has been playing horribly but we do have some strong respected pro's like Chandler, Amare, and they aren't going to go sulk in the corner. I think the team comes out inspired and predict a big win.

hope so. Although we have heard that the last few games and the same thing happens
Milwaukee blew them out on Monday. That means the Knicks will get blown out by Detroit tonight.
I see Greg Monroe grabbing 20 rebounds too.
What i really want to see is them drive to the basket. Dont stay on the three point line. i dont care if they get called for a few offensice fouls i just want them to be aggressive for a change
25 assists or bust.
Tonight is the first game of the rest of the season.
Hit the open man.

GO KNICKS!
Any links? Blocked out again....
Go it . First row seems OK quality
ok so at least shump is back in the starting lineup. At least we can get back to playing decent D if nothing else
now if only Lin can get the backup minutes at PG over Douglas/bibby
1st Qtr 10:41
NYK 5 DET 2
Shump looking inside to Chandler. looks like benching him for missing the bigs inside mightve worked
I figured out what is wrong with Amare. Its not the back, its not the knees, its not the gucci googles. He simply just needs to shave
