Knicks · Can We Get to 50 Wins? (page 1)

Rookie @ 2/6/2025 4:54 PM
We stand at 34-17 with 21 games remaining. We have one of the toughest schedules to finish the season. OO’s status is hopeful but still unknown. KAT has been off since he injured his thumb. We need to win 16 out of 21 or basically win 75% (7.5 of 10) of remaining regular season games.

Right, going 16-15 to get to 50 wins is not that daunting.

We would have to 16-15 which would not be good considering the talent on this roster

Knicks have won exactly 60 games twice - 1970 and 1993. Can they match or exceed that total this year? Sure seems like it to me.

on pace for 55 ;-)

How do we fix Kay’s finger? I don’t care about 60, 50 or 55 wins.

Board is struggling with math - 50 wins at 16-15 is aiming too low. 60 wins at 26-5 is pretty out of reach. 52-54 eins is likely where they end up.

A couple of decades of losing was bound to brain some damage.

I predicted 47 wins in the " Hang your ass" thread. I still think it's pretty accurate. Maybe 51-52 tops.

I run out of body parts to use after 21

why would this team be so much WORSE than last years?

You think we're going to implode and finish 13-18? No way, not unless we have some catastrophic injuries.

My ass when hung out was 55-57 wins.
Do we get a chip? I doubt it.
In he age of Parity, there is a path so there is hope.
Injuries may knock us out, or knock us in. Its always a factor.
Cleveland has to get thru the season and in playoffs with a healthy Allen which is a rare feat.
We need Mitch and everyone healthy.
Let the games decide.

Here is my logic for predicting 47 back in November.
A) I thought it would take us longer to jel, whereas last year's team has been together longer
B) I thought that we would have more injuries during the season than we did last year( hasn't materialized)The reason why I predicted more injuries being that our bench this year is weaker imho( Mitch being injured contributes to this, as well as other factors)so the starters would play more

We’re a second round exit.
