New York vs LA Lakers 02/28 Game Thread (W 117-115)

Any news on Butler playing tonight?

ladies and gentlemen, i give you MIKE SWEETNEY, hes a beast so far in the first.

Just saw on knicks.com that Butler was placed on the injured list.

Man oh man, has tim thomas ever come out of his shell.. hes calling for the ball every time on offense, even with the Lakers now putting Odom on him. keep it up TT, marbury is throwing an assist party and Sweetney has just tied his season high @ 19.
:gony: :thewave: :gony:

4 3pters in last minute ... are they trying to loose

39 points in the 4th quarter. 12 to 1 run in the last minute and a half. That is just BS. It basically describes how our season has been going so far and expect much more of it. I don't know what to say I have never been more pissed. :fury:

This is horrible. I don't think we can come back and win, if we do lose this will be one of the worst defeats i have ever seen

thank you god!! thank you god!! i am physically and emotionally drained from that game, i really need to sleep, that took too much out of me, thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

I have never been more reliefed but I'm still pissed at what happened in the 4th quarter. :|

Thank God I was wrong

Calm down people!!!
Jeez that was an awesome game. The knicks played an extremley good game all around. The end was not so much a knicks collapse as a great effort by the Lakers. We have to credit the lakers for knockin down those 3's at the end of the game.

yeah i credit the lakers for that amazing comeback, but i give us more credit for winning it back in overtime... Not many teams would have the will to come back after that

Yea it was moreof a Lakers comback than a Knicks collapse. I hope they understand that teh defense thatthey played earlier gave them a big cushion to soften the lakers comback. Teams are gonna make their runs. Their a 3 pt shooting team. If the Knicks just made their free throws we would of won the game by 5 in regulation.

Oh yea I hate Laker Fans. They were so many of them there. I cant stand them. Glad yall lost tonight.

Boy oh boy if we let that one slip any hopes we had of restoring this season would of gone down the drain.

Credit to the players for keeping their head and not letting the 4th qtr collapse get at them.

Great game overall, espicially from Tim Thomas...he is really shutting up those doubters now. Keep it up Tim.

i dont want to be a pessimist, but were still 5 games out of first place. and boston and philly have significantly upgraded their rosters.

the idealistic knick fan inside me would love to see them somehow make the playoffs and somehow actually win a series or two.

but is that really going to happen? i dont think so.

I can't realisticly see it happening but i just want to keep that hope.

there always has to be that hope.. without that hope we'll accomplish nothing, without that hope we wouldnt have beaten the lakers, i think if we just take it one game at a time we can make a run to the playoffs, i still believe!

Timmy had his greatest game in this season!

tim had his greatest game as a knick!! 35 points is the most he's ever scored in orange and blue, and that tip in in overtime was by far his biggest shot!
