Knicks · Game Thread: "New York Knicks Vs Orlando Magic" 7pm (Really wanting 4th pick vs wanting 11th pick) (page 1)

If we lose this we have a shot at the 4th or 5th pick in the draft. If we win we fall back to the 11th pick.

I will leave it to your individual consciences whether you want to to route for victory in this game or not...

I dont think you're a real Knicks fan if you want them to win. Or atleast a diehard fan.
smackeddog @ 3/6/2017 3:51 PM
I bet we win

I don't think it's about being a true fan, but I do think if someone's rooting for a win in this game they are putting their instant gratification over longer term needs

Shut up Briggs lol, this is a much needed loss game. We need Rose to be healthy and play aggressive without passing this game.

New to posting on the forum. Been lurking here for the past several years. Knicks fan since 1992.

Hoping (praying, pleading) for a loss tonight, but if Aaron Gordon is playing significant minutes for the Magic tonight I just don't see how the Magic would win.

I want to see the young guys play well at least. I have been content seeing us lose competitive games. Blowouts are no fun.

It's Rose I don't trust not to have a huge, franchise crushing game. Also KOQ has a personal grudge vs his ex team and usually looks to have a big game vs them.

they say blowout loses means bad roster with not enough talent, closes losses means, bad coaching, and no leaders ship

The tank is real. This game just became a helluva lot more interesting to me.

Hopefully Melo takes off most road games to rest that knee

Honestly, with Melo out and KP starting at center... I'm really torn about what to root for. I know the loss is best for the draft. But I will have a hard time rooting against the kids.
crzymdups @ 3/6/2017 7:15 PM
Hahahhahaha. Hell yeah 9-0 Magic. I admit it, I'm more excited about the tank at this point.

Damn. I am pulling for a loss (which is really a win), but keeping Melo's ill-advised 4Q shots on the bench is not going to help. Will have to pin my hopes on Rose.
