Would love to win this division game, got some solid home games this wk... Time to get on track, Amare, Felton, shump..Time to roll..Time to roll! lets put it in gear, seperate our selfs from the mediocre..
I am really really looking forward to the return of Felton. Don't know what you got till it's gone...
Important game in the sense of we got the base of our team back and playing together, minus the two old men.
Apparently Kidd took a shot to the back in the other game. Hes starting but hopefully his minutes get monitored for a bit
that means
amare
shump
jr
novak
will come off the bench, which makes us pretty damn deep for tonight..
Knicks go 10-1 next 11
6 game lead on Brooklyn by the Feb 17 allstar break

Raymond Felton is starting. Jason Kidd is playing and starting. Iman Shumpert is starting at 3 tonight.
Why not just give Kidd off til Wednesday I don't get it. At this rate he won't be available for the playoffs
Against these sixers who start a power forward at center, a Small forward at Power Forward and 3 shooting guards(body wise), this is a great line up for us to go small. Hopefully Stat doesn't slip in this game after his best game in a loooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooong time.

All these games are important, build some ground then rest when your in a position to rest..
some ppl want guys to rest so they will be fresh come playoffs, but at the end of the season when 1 or 2 games seperates an easy first 2 rnds or a very difficult first 2 rnds

I'm ok with this as long as JR's minutes are cut
Now it makes sense to me..

Check out #Knicks starting lineup v #sixers tonight: 1-Felton 2-Kidd 3-Shumpert 4-Anthony 5-Chandler
I'm ok with that lineup until Sheed and or Camby return and Amare starts
Tommy Beer @TommyBeer
Novak shoots 51% on 3's when playing alongside Felton; versus just 37% with Felton off the floor.

Melo has connected on 46% of his 3-point attempts w/ Felton on the floor this season; and just 36% w/ Felton off the floor.

It's almost as if Knicks fans don't truly understand the importance of a starting PG in the association.
A penetrating pg is like have a post player, he makes everybody else get easy shots either for them or himself.

That means nothing
Ian Begley @IanBegley
Camby is no longer in his walking boot. Says he expects to start running in 2-3 weeks. Has been out for 2 weeks
Shumps minutes got increased to 30. Maybe he can play SG for some time and give Kidd a break. Hopefully the Knicks take care of business for that reason also.
Well, that's an interesting starting lineup: Felton, Kidd, Shumpert, Melo, Chandler

Im really curious to see how that lineup works. With the exception of Kidd, those guys should be able to get out a run as long as no one throws Tyson a pass that isnt a lob
