Knicks · GT: Your Melobury Knicks @ My Su-ronto Raptors - Part 2 (Friday 2/22 - 7pm) (page 3)

TeamBall @ 2/21/2013 9:30 PM
Mike Woodson said today at practice he may change the starting lineup to infuse some offense and rookie Chris Copeland is a candidate to come in for struggling Jason Kidd or Iman Shumpert. Woodson said Amar’e Stoudemire likely is not under consideration.

I would go Copeland for Kidd until Kmart, Camby or Sheed is ready then I will start Amare

I mean, i couldn't help myself with these pics,

The Knicks could beat the Raptors by 50 and it still changes nothing. Their play last 2 months and their performance Wednesday against a rival was pathetic and sad.

It's true,

Toronto game is a good chance to make a strong comeback and reaffirm their solidarity,

no one has been traded, now you can get back to it and play with spirit

This is what we need Woody and Kidd, Melo, Amare, Felton, Chandler our VETERANS who should have a high basketball IQ to do.

Let's count the # of passes each possession tomorrow.

I actually like clark kellogg who calls college games and nba2k

But he was absolutely horrible to listen to last night..

the Clips are down 30 to the Spurs maybe there was just some SICK PARTIES as all star weekend...

The Clippers are pretenders but they're still better than us.

So only losses count now? So if we win you'll say it doesn't count, and if we lose you'll cite it as proof that we're terrible. Do you not see how that might be annoying for people that actually like the team and root for it to win?

Nothing matters but losing, blowing up the team, hating Dolan and the hope of getting swept in the first round. Oh yeah, and Melo's warmup jacket remains a joke!

Life is great in Knickland!

smack - the sign is trippy but i'm used to it. still, funky stuff for tv.

knicks should win tonight...you have to expect them to come out all motivated and driven to get the W tonight. if they don't, then that makes it a talent issue and not an effort issue.

nalod - i still have some grant hill going on...just a few pounds heavier :)

This alone would do wonders for the offense. Amare needs to start for it to work though

Agreed. I think the Spurs are the only team other than the Lakers who can show up against Miami in the finals. We know OKC can't. Clips are a great regular season team but will be shutdown in the playoffs by elite defenses and teams with championship caliber post play

We know OKC can't? Last season they won game 1 and then lost games 2-4 by 4, 6, and 6 points. I don't know how you look at that and assume they can't win. OKC's two best player are also only 24 years old and Serge Ibaka is 23; they still have plenty of room to grow and you're doing them one hell of a disservice counting them out now.

Miami has toyed with OKC again this year

a lot of that is on Brooks. His line ups are awful. There is no reason to play Perkins against Miami Selfa. should guard Lebron not DUrant. Durant should guard Wade or Battier and not Chamlmer either because Chalmers was killing him for laying off.

YOu let yourself go???

Stay healthy my friend!

Boy, did that team ever get screwed over.

AnubisADL @ 2/22/2013 2:37 PM
Hopefully we can get this needed win.
nixluva @ 2/22/2013 2:59 PM
This team has the ability to play MUCH better than they have. IMO it's a matter of focus. In addition we need to get healthy. We've really missed Sheed, tho I know some are not appreciating how much his presence means to this team. We need desperately for Felton and Kidd to step up and play like they did at the start of the season. We haven't gotten anything from them in a long time. It starts with a win tonight to get back on the horse.

The Knicks haven't lost anything yet. They're still in 2nd place in the East and it's 100% in their own hands where they finish.
