Chris Copeland only needs to be aware of defensive rotations and not play like a rookie.
7 rebounds would be nice.
I know it's probably asking for the moon, but a few blocks on the perimeter off of switches would be nice.

Serious question - I didnt watch much of the Bulls outside of nationally televised games when Brewer was with them. Was he really a lock-down defender?
Brewer is hurting, he's slightly limping every game.

Yeah my brother pointed that out too. I was asking about his time in Chicago cause im sure he was healthy then and if hes the defender that I hear then I dont want him to completely lose his minutes once Shumpert returns

and play under control offensively and not turn the ball over

He should lose all his minutes but might come in handy when we play Lebron. Shump is too small and you don't want Melo guarding Lebron and getting into foul trouble
Since no one stepped up for Melo these guys better come out focused and hit every open shot and gut out a win tonight
teamwork and energetic defense always gives an undermanned team a chance to win, even on the road.
With or without Melo, if we play team ball and tough New York defense we can beat these guys. Indy isn't anything special.
We still have a very strong basketball team heading into tonight's matchup. Those fans who are giving the Pacers the "win" before tipoff have no idea how talented our Knicks team truthfully is.
C: Tyson Chandler.
PF: Amar'e Stoudemire.
SF: Chris Copeland.
2G: J.R Smith.
PG: Jason Kidd.
This may not be our starting 5, but this is the roster that I'd love to see (a lot of) tonight.
Steve Novak, Pablo Prigioni and Ronnie Brewer should round out our 8 man rotation tonight.
Play team ball, don't turn the ball over; and this is more than enough to get past a Pacers team without Danny Granger. (some) People are acting like this Pacers team have became the Rockets of 1994 and/or the OKC Thunder. Which couldn't be further from the truth.

Amare is only playing 20mins
I guess I have "no idea how talented" we are then
pablo needs to have a better game as does kidd. It would also be nice for once if brewer can defend well for entire game since that is suppose to be his strength. Copeland/Amare need to give us some good offense as well
If we play top notch defense, we can win this offense will be a bonus.
copeland for 34

Game Over
WOW Knicks slipped to 22nd in the league in FG defense. Bottom 3rd
Shumpert means a lot to knicks D and Kidd isn't half as good as the credit he get's of D.
Pacers won 8 in a row at home. This is going to be a tough game. If we pass the ball we will give ourselves our only chance to win. No single player heroics will be enough. We need a collective effort here.
