why cant Jcraw start at 2 and Q at the 3???

[KNICKSCALI]

q isn't a 100% yet... until he is then i guess this is what our line-up will look like.

[TmAc N Knicks4life]

if hes not 100% y is he starting??

[NYKnicks15]

cause larry trusts the shooting and thought process of quentin richardson more than he doesn JC's. blame him? prolly also has to do something with Crawford never being on a team thats won more than 30 games in a season...Q/JC make the 2 spot a deadly bench/starting combo i like it...especially since we have no backups for the SG if we start both JC/Q together this also gives Ariza a chance to start as well as Barnes...

The date in the first post is wrong.

[Trin_Starr]

The wizards are garbage - This should be an easy win for our team

[e_D]

I'll be at this game tonight. I'll try to get as good pictures as I can with my crappy camera.

[Peach_NYK_21]

i thought msg didnt allow cameras inside

dont underestimate the wizards. two all stars: gilbert arenas and antwan jamison with rising star caron butler. as for their bench they are pretty deep especialy with daniels but i dont think its as deep as ours. should be a tough oppenent

[Ewing33]

Yea...I really woldn't call the Wizards "garbage" they are a playoff team and have some excellent talent... actually, Knick fans probably shouldn't call any team garbage...at least not until we win our first game of the year...
On another note, am I crazy to say this about only game#2...but, this feels like a huge game of NYK...we need to learn how to win and believe that it is possible...with the schedule we have this month we need to win a game at home like this...otherwise we might be in such a hole by Christmas that our wish will be a good lottery pick...not being negative...just realistic...

[pyotrveliky]

yeah, home game we should win. the wiz are good but def not a top 5 playoff team. we have to win these kinds of games if were gonna make the playoffs

oooh.. please do

[NYKnicks15]

yea i didnt think cameras were allowed either..hmm could be wrong. anyhow the wizards are definetely not a team to underestimate Trin. Haywood, Booth, Ramos has untapped talent, Etan Thomas, Butler, Jeffries, Jamison, Hayes, Daniels, Arenas, Atkins they have a solid 1st/2nd string...now after building them up let me shoot them down right quick...with Q-Rich on Daniels we have a 3 inch advantage that im sure q will take advantage of ALSO NY is 5-0 against Washington in home openers and weve taken 6 of the last 7 against them...hopefully those good odds continue..
