Philly winning pulls us into a tie for last place.
Still need Philly to win a few more since losing comes naturally to all three teams

Yeah if for nothing else having the absolute worse record
Assures no worse than 4th place finish in the lottery
Melo can add this to his gaudy playing resume
Philly two in a row drops Knicks to dead last
Get the defibrillator ready for nixluva!
Now I have one question.
WTF is Minny's problem? Can't those douches put together some wins? I mean come on, we need some cooperation here!

Within 1 month they will get back Rubio Perovic and martin(not this martin that martin) so that should put them back on track.
All we need is Melo and Amare done release Bargs--and we wont win 15 games.

Fingers crossed. You're right. If Phil wants to, he can have the worst record in the league. It is just a matter of priorities. I'm giving him some slack on this account since I'd consider a sign of minimum intelligence on his part to go full tanktard and get that first pick. Anything else now would be inexcusable. At least Philly has upside now, so they don't have to have # 1 this year. We need it bad.

Just like Magic Johnson said--Id lose every game. It's an easy sell to Dolan--if we get Ok4--we'll sell more jerseys he'll be able to raise tix tv rights etc... but they all have to commit to helping this terrible team be worse. Winning this year =most lottery balls.

True. Even a dolt like Dolan can see the cash registers ringing if we tank hard and land # 1.
As the earliest advocate of tanking, I can say I did not necessarily know if Dolan would be able to buy in, but 5-25 says he can, because it has become as sure a move Phil can make now.
If they cut Bargs, Dolan is totally on board.
I don't want to have the worst record, simply because usually the team with the worst record doesn't seem to get the number 1 pick! I'll settle for second or third worst.

That's the wrong way to think about it.
Past outcomes DO NOT affect future outcomes. The odds are the odds. The worst record has the best chance mathematically and thus no matter what has transpired in the past, no matter how bizarre the results seemingly have been and no matter how little the worst team has actually won in recent years, the simple fact is that the worst record STILL has the best chance. Point blank: We should hope for the worst record.
Do you play poker? Pocket Aces (A-A) sometimes lose but its is and always will be the best starting hand. Just because sometimes some dolt wins with 7-2 off suit (the _worst_ possible starting hand) doesnt mean that you should hope to get 7-2 instead of A-A

I know the science, but I'm a superstitious guy when it comes to luck! I don't play poker because I know I would most likely lose
