Melo already said he's gonna play for sure but Lin is most likely out

Despite the injuries, Knicks 96 - Magic 93
Anyone else wants to make a prediction? Wish there is a thread for game predictions and a thread for a compilation of members scores.
Awesome game thread Clyde!
I'm not concerned about keeping Howard down, Chandler already showed he knows how to make Dwight look like a role player. What I'm afraid of is our peremiter defense, those Orlando bastards are making threes from every spot on the planet and we're known as "one of worst teams in the defending threes department" [Breen's voice]. So, let's go KNICKS!
I agree,with Tyson being able to handle Howard, but he needs to be careful and not pick up an y cheap tacky fouls. Cuz we dont have the Giraffe either,, so we'd be down to Jorts and Jordan, and I dont like that matchup against us. But priority number 1 has to be contain their 3pt shooters, especially Anderson.
Lets see if we can get a great game out of Melo, cuz we'll need it for sure.

Love the thread clyde!
Lol at the Laundry Folds & Iman pics.
I'm considering sitting Melo. Groin injuries can linger, and we need him at 100%.
Without him + Stat we lose in the playoffs. If there is a playoffs.
This is going to be an interesting game to watch. Probably the toughest opponent our Knickerbockers will face since the start of the Woodson Era. With STAT definitely out with the bulging dick, I hope Woody inserts Shump or JR into the starting lineup to compensate for the scoring hole left by Amar'e. I love Landry and thinks he's done a great job of defending and rebounding, but the lack of a decent jumpshot in his game is a terrible fit for the starting lineup, especially with Stoudemire out. Melo needs a shooter camping out behind the arc for when he decides to post and toast to keep the opposing defense honest and not overcommit on doubling him.
ESPN is reporting that Lin is out for tonights game. Hopefully Baron can go for 30-33 min tonight. Cause I cant stand Bibby, Douglas and Shump running the point guard.
woodson get jordan out there!.
- late Q1/early Q2 let jort hack howard.
-avoid any big leads on the by the time of half.
-Q3/Q4 let jordan hack howard.
-oscar time flop flop flop

-perimeter defense!
-tyson rebound and deflection all day.

-a bit of luck

The key to tonights game let Tyson match up with Dwight and keep Orlando out of thier game plan. Which is Dwight in the middle and 4 outside shooters. Guard Anderson don't let him go off tonight. I think the other night he hit 8 three point shots. (Jeffries would have been perfect for tonight.)
-I expect to see Jerome get like 5-10 minutes tonight, pretty much to eat up fouls.
-Attack Dwight, he is known to get into foul trouble. The more he is off the court the better.
- Feed the ball to Melo. J.Rich, Anderson, and Quinten cant guard him one on one.
Hoping the best for tonights game...Good news is i believe its on TV here in the tampa area...hope so
hopeing to catch this one online. gonna be a big game for us. the bench needs to step it up!!!
