I wouldn't recommend betting on that outcome.

It would be great, not to prove any points, but a boost to morale that our role players are more than just supporting cast to our headliners!
It would not be sustainable or prove we are better without either, but someone else besides KP would have to step up.

Problem is we get called for a foul if our players even fart near the opposing team- refs just won't allow us to play physical

Well, I guess some folks are going to get their wish. Melo sitting this one out. I really hope there's a major controversy here tomorrow, meaning we somehow found a way to win without Melo (or Rose).

This is a great learning opportunity for the rooks. With Rose and Melo out, they should get some or more PT. Last game against the Cavs I thought that Hornacek made the mistake of bringing LT off the bench first (still coming off his injuries) and burying the rooks until the game was out of hand.

If Jeff wants to count on his rookies in the playoffs (if we make it) playing meaningful minutes against elite teams during the regular season is important IMO.

It would be awesome if KP and Jennings went off for huge scoring nights and the rest of the crew shoots lights out. That's what is going to take to win. Maybe even a Draymond ejection or a Cutey foul out. My the odds forever be in our favor

2) Jennings gets into it with Klay and they both get ejected.

3) Double KD all night and let the rest of the Goldens beat us.

4) Melo's on track for a decent game.

5) KPicorn stays out of foul trouble, but still gets 11 blocks.

6) Lance Thomas has a career night triple double!

7) Kuz breaks Spree's record and hits 10 3's in a row without a miss!

8) Our bench backcourt yoots are better than GS bench backcourt!

9) Noah hits 7 free throws! He misses 4 in a row again too, but what the hey anyway!

Knicks win going away by 15!

LOLLL I would record that game and never delete it!

We're not out scoring GS. We will need to win with a massive defensive effort.

Yeah if three of those are makes the Knicks are right in this. Still a pretty good showing so far. Baker with a nice bucket.
