We must win by 20 or slit our wrists.
At the end of the day, Wins are not weighted. Exactly right.
People are mentioning Amare and Shumpert and Camby, u humm we've won big games without them sniffing the court.

Amar'e has yet to test his knees in contact. Solo warmups before games are cute but nothing like the real thing. Check the number of back-toback games in March. Six. Crazy.
Shumpert. See above. Please do not rush to prove anything. Iman is one of our best assets.
Camby can sit until March, when the schedule is not our friend. Playoffs.
Please reward Sheed with a generous contract for his hard work and leadership.

March schedule is crazy, especially considering we have a lot of older players. Dont think we're even allowed to rest them for games after Sterns meltown vs the spurs. However, in our favour, have you noticed how sparse Jan and Feb are? Lots of rest and practice time to help us work in Shump, Amar'e and Camby.

no, Sterns beef was that the NBA office was not notified prior. You can do it but you have to make the decision prior to game day so guys (non season ticket holders) are not buying tickets for what would likely be an underwhelming game. Stern made that very clear....the lack of notification and arrogance that brought the hammer down.
Most team have the common sense to say they have a mild sprain or hip contusion, etc. SanAntonio didn't even have the good grace to list a fake injury for them.
Kyrie Irving will one day be talked about the same way people talk about Paul, Williams, Westbrook, etc. He's a talent... the fact that they were undermanned, absorbed Kyrie's monster game and still won was completely impressive

Papabear Says
OK I can some what agree but all I am saying is that I say Irving drive by people and they couldn't stop him. All I am saying is that when ever Melo plays the other team try to knock him on his ass. We did not do the with Irving. We just let him have his way with us. We have a target on our backs by every under 400 pct team in the league because they believe they have a chance with the Knicks because we have a habit of playing down to the level of lesser teams and thats bad. Let's see how we handle Houston tonight.

Take away Westbrook, Durant and Ibaka and the Thunder would also (then) play down to the level of lesser teams. Because the Knicks were without Iman Shumpert, Carmelo Anthony and Amar'e Stoudemire. Not to mention also being without Marcus Camby and Rasheed Wallace but yet, you're still complaing over a win?
You're going off the deep end due to a win while being 5 men down all because of an amazing PG in Irving having a great night? Nice to know. You do know where Irving was drafted and/or why so high, correct? First overall draft selection. A great talent and potentially great PG. Kidd called him "The Future". He took advantage of a team without 2 stars (Melo/Amar'e), 1 key player (Shumpert) and two veteran BIG's in Camby and Rasheed. Big deal....
