I can't wait for this game, it's been a long summer! I definately think the Knicks are capable of winning this game and starting this season on a good foot. We'll see what happens.

[JamesM]

Definitely a winable game.Shane Battier is a big loss for them.Go knicks!

[liquid347]

Kind of a catch 22 for the Knicks. If they win people will say Gasol wasn't there so its not a true test and if they don't the trash talk will continue.

[Ewing33]

Hey a win is a win...I don't care if Memphis shows up with Calipari's team...this Knicks team needs to win. Especially when you look at the schedule...we need this game and Friday's at Atlanta...

Go Knicks!!!!

I believe we'll put together a string of wins to start the season. Alot of teams are going to be caught offguard by our new style and mentality, and that gives us the upperhand. I expect a better start to the season then some people are forcasting.

Let's go! I'm pumped for the season! I snagged tickets to the home opener on Saturday, so if I manage to get some good pics I'll post em up.

this is a win there gonna come out strong and francis will have a big game

[TrueBlue20]

The Knicks definitely need to take advantage of the fact that Gasol is not playing and pull out a win. We need to get positive start to the season. I definitely feel good about our starting five against Memphis.

[Dash2110]

We do need to start things off strong and on a positive note, since we do have some toughies for our first 10. Time to see if some of the chemistry will carry into the games that matter now.

Got my free week-long preview to NBA League Pass, I'll be watchin.

It seems like the knicks always lose on opening night. I think they might finally be able to get a win this time, but does anyone know the last time the knicks did win on opening night cuz i think they lost the last 2 years 2 the celtics i know they lost to the wizards maybe 5 years ago on opening night i cant remember the other 2 teams but im just curious

[rady]

In 2001 to San Antonio, in 2002 to Boston, in 2003, we lost to Washington, in 2004 we lost to Minesotta, last year to Boston
.
In 2000 we beat the Cavs

[Goknickerbokers]

This game is lowing smoothly.

We are up and we have yet to really see Frye come out

[Goknickerbokers]

Rolling right along there folks. That Block by eddie was MONSTER!

[datruth]

wasnt pretty but a win is a win
