Lets go Knicks! Knock down these punks below us in the standings!

Lets see KOQ and Kanter throwing eblows at Dwight all night
Briggs see's Kaminnsky... ohh, what could have been
Let's trade KP for draft picks! On second thought.... Lets just ride him to the top of the standings instead.

Someone post a Knick city dancer! Gamerweeeeeeeed

Want to see our backcourt just shut down Kemba for what would seem like the first time.

Be interesting to see how many fouls they throw at the Unicorn tonight...

Dwight Howard has to be the biggest poser in today's basketball. Dude can't shoot at all. All he can do is dunk and jump hook. Wants to command Steph Curry salary when he should be paid Javale McGee salary.

This is one matchup where Kanter will have to be good defending him down low and that battle on the offensive boards for the Knicks should be epic. I can see some elbows being thrown around.

If Howard tries to defend KP, he has no chance lol.

I think this is a great measuring stick game for our Pauvre Couillons du Front. Kemba is a stud -- no doubt -- but you would think after Frank develops, he would be able to smother a guy with Kemba's measurements, or at least make him work for his shot/be inefficient

I would not be upset if Kemba does his thing against Frank because that is what anyone rational would expect... but man, would it be great if he could slow him down or shut him down... one day...

this is where Knicks should win IMO. Their starting 5 is good. Not impressed with their 2nd unit and while guys like Frank/KOQ/McD/Lance have given us a big boost night in and out.

will be interesting to see if KP lets Frank shoot the 3. Kaminsky is taking 4 a game and shooting under 30%

can't wait! have to imagine Monk will want to put on a show

He's gonna have to go through Enes or Kyle and he's gonna feel that in the morning. I have noticed those guy both play very chippy. They have taken on Oakley's role next to Ewing. Those guys are really playing physical.

Im guessing our playoff hopes will ride on how much we get from the starting PG position. Hope Jack can hold up. Its too much to ask Frank at this stage to be the man. Still has things to work on. Id like to see our bigs box out, make some room for Frank to get in the paint, if possible.

Hope Lance can continue his progress. We need someone starting at the 3 who can defend. Whoever it is.

He does and he doesnt. I think the Knicks do exactly what they are doing. Ride Jack out.. no reason not to. He's been great. If/when Jack gets hurt you start Frank.

Frank is going to have struggles, bad games, tough matchups... all that. The question is what can Frank do right now? What can we trust him with? For me I can trust him with the ball, to make good passes and be in the right spots defensively. When you have a monster scorer like KP his job is simplified. All their jobs are. I think this opens things up for Frank, or perhaps we need him for less is more like it.

Despite the early winning I am in no rush. I just want whats best for Frank, but he appears comfortable with some pressure. Right now PG is simple.. make great passes to KP and play defense. Two things Frank is REALLY good at

I'd like to see Frank on Kemba. He did a nice job against Collison. When you play aggressive d on a pg, it takes the other team out of their offense.

SOOOOOOO important to have that D at the point of attack. Frank is slowing teams down and making it tough to run their Offense cleanly.
