nets are (2-4) in the preseason

and the knicks will have a tough time with their biggs again

hopefully we are rested and recovered after looking sluggish facing the champs....

knicks should put up some points and hopefully look to get Yi and Lopez in foul trouble by attacking the basket in transition

Didn't we blow them out last game? We just have to be smart with the ball, make some damn 3 point shots that we suck at making, and draw fouls by charging the basket with slashers like Marbury.

Anybody know if Danilo is gonna get some minutes in this game?

no hes not gonna play, today was only his 1st or 2nd practice. but we know curry isnt gonna play because D'Antoni hates him. haha. this game doesnt mean much, i think we have all seen the positives and negatives from pre-season play already.

The Knicks are 3-3 in preseason vs the Nets, 76ers, and Celtics.
Tonight is the 7th and last preseason game vs Nets..... the Knicks should win.
But dont any Knick-fan get all hyped-up off the win.
Nothing have been proven that we are not the 23 or 33 win team we used to be.

Coach Dantoni vs Coach Frank = Dantoni by a mile

Coach Frank no longer have coach Isiah to beat him as the WORST coach in the NBA.

Poor draft selection

It would've been nice to see Danilo Galinari "TRY" to go up against the Nets bigmen. The Nets young bigmen Boone, Sean, and Lopez, would've sent Galinari to the D-League in just one preseason outing.
Like it or not Galinari's value gets lower each game that he miss.
And you can't compare his back problem to lastseason Oden.<!-- google_ad_section_end --><!-- / message -->

I'd say play the first half like a regular season game, then pull the main contributors and just play the Ewings, Robersons, and punish Eddy Curry by playing the whole second half of a meaningless game.


I'm sure Houston said no because he didn't want to embarass himself by not playing up to the ability we remember him at, but it woulda been nice to see him make a cameo tonight before getting cut.

Were a better team on both ends of the court when wilson chandler is playing. With him out tonight i dont see us winning, not that it matters.

smh @ lopez ownin Lee....lees gotta learn how to throw an occasional up fake. Thats one thing i noticed about him last year. Theres certain players that dominate him and shut down his offense.

Well Dantoni's preseason experiment showed the Knicks roster only have 5 players out of 16 that could play to Dantoni's uptempo style.

Players Curry, Zach, Q.Rich, Crawful, and Collins could only score when in a halfcourt offense.

I agree with all them except mardy collins, not that hes a game changer but i like his style of play. I think he deserves some minutes....especially if crawford is gonna get 30+ minutes a game.

Heres the players that i think have looked the sharpest (in no order)

David Lee
Nate Robinson
Starbury
Duhon
Wilson Chandler
Mardy Collins

*edit*

Zach randolph is not good for this type of offense, but id rather see him get minutes then Curry.
