The knicks must come out focused and do not underestimate this team.
Baron Davis is looking dangerous, but Marbury should be able to keep him in check!

if we can contain baron i dont think they have much they can do. i dont even know any of their other starters.

We have to win this one! C'mon they've won 3 games and lost almost 30!
We can't lose against this team at the garden ( they won only 1 game on the road)
I hope JYD is still starting over Tim

I don't know where you found those numbers!
Maybe it only counts games between NO and NY? Is that right?
But i found these on nba.com for the entire league:

NYK: 97,05 PPG 15th allows 98,73 ppg 10th
NO:86,62 PPG 29th allows 95,71 ppg 18th

So we have a better offense but they have a better defense

That doesnt mean anything. They just beat Sacremento, one of the most complete teams in the league, the other day. I hope Allan has another good game, because he might have some trouble guarding J.R.Smith. He's got some real talent, he's like a young Vince Carter, he can hit shots from the perimeter and jump out of the stadium if he wanted to, and he came from high school. Not too experienced though, LETS GO KNICKS.

Granted, I'm a Hornets fan down here in New Orleans, but, I sincerely think that the Hornets are going to win. This team is hot and extremely hungry for more wins. They've been through alot this season with these losses and are a unified unit. Regardless, I fully expect a good basketball game...I think you all will enjoy the Hornets. They've been really a great NBA team to watch the last couple of weeks, in spite of the losses. You could see them coming together better and better each game.

hornets are coming off a big win against sac knicks are coming off of four losses and a cheap win against portland i think fhe knicks are hungry for a win too. I honesly think the knicks are better in each and every position.

Nice game...come on down to [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] and say hello during the season. We don't play the Knicks again, so, you won't have to worry about us beating you all again! Take it easy.

don't harass other fans

[6thman]

This is just a shame for all the NY fans!
I don't what's up with this team but it really sucks!
NO has the most mediocre record in the league and we still manage to loose???
Man i can't believe what happened even if we played with 7 players!

[Trin_Starr]

The injuries are really taking a toll on the knicks. It affects them mentally and physically.
I know it hurts to watch the knicks loose games like that.
But right now our bench consists of 2 players:
Mocchie and Ariza
Missing are Crawford - 19pts 4asts a game
Sweetney - timely offensive rebounds resulting in putbacks and 2nd chances
Penny - A veteran who can pass and make shots - people forget that penny was averaging 15+pts & 4+asts in the playoffs last year.
TT - he was the 6th man of the year in Milwaukee - that's his role. He should not deny it.

The knicks will bounce back.
