Winnable game with or without Melo as long as they bring the same effort they had against OKC. This is another one of those games you learn a lot about the team from. They can't just get up for the good teams. We need consistent effort on both ends of the court.
Awesome...Amare questionable with sore right knee tonight.
LOL so much for Start Amare. First round exit now
Woodson said if both Anthony and Stoudemire are out against Utah on Saturday, rookie Chris Copeland and veterans Kenyon Martin and Marcus Camby will see time.
From Begley article.
Marc Berman@NYPost_BermanWoodson says Melo didn't even participate in shootaround. Looks like Melo and Amar'e won't play. But Copeland will!
No Amar'e hurts against the Jazz's 4 headed front court- Al Jefferson, Favors, Milsap and especially Kanter are capable of putting up ridiculous numbers. I'm also wary of Foye, who will likely be the player that shoots 80% and has a career night against us.
Well, Linsanity showed you never know what will happen when your best players are out, but I'm looking at the roster and it doesn't look great- probalem is now our older players may end up playing too many minutes. Also Jazz played last night, so we can only hope they are tired.
Not a good match up for us, but lets see what we can do- keep up the defense we've been playing and hope Cope has a monster game.

Just thinking about the Nets giving up Favors and Lilliard. A ton of talent for what they have. Their salar situation is pretty bad now and in the future.

Good!
Realising I'm probably jinxing us, but Before I had a look at their roster, I forgot Marvin Williams even existed- his stats are terrible this year. (Hope I haven't just turned him into the scrub of the game)

At least we all know who to blame when Marvin Williams lights us up tonight
Team Ball is what you all have cried for, well here it is.
I like the aggression going to the hole by the Knick guards. Need to stay at home on 3pt line!
weird game thread..
very unselfish without a goto guy
YEAH KMART!!! that's how u do it the team way!
K-mart a big that can pass what a novelty. Knicks movin and groovin. Win this one for the STAT man.
No one is jacking up shots lots of scoring inside, hope JR will follow their lead.
Man. Knick guards should always ply this aggressive!
I am loving the D shump,kmart and tyson is bringing.
