This is still a Gregg Pop team with Tim Duncan, the last thing we need to do is think that this team is going to lay down to us. If we play hard and are focused we should win, if we expect them to lay down, we lose by 15 or more!

If ever we are gonna beat the spurs this year it would be now...
their guards are out and we should push the ball all over and attack duncan to try to get him in foul trouble
The Knicks have 3 Games inwhich without any head cases acting-up.... a Spurs Win could lead into a winning streak if no one plays with a big-head.
Spurs-is a veteran Halfcourt offensive team without Parker & Ginobli
Grizz-Gay & Mayo offense on a defenseless team......
OK-City-Durant has inconsistent teammates that can turn it up
This is early in the season where scouts are having problems in giving a worth while report on teams with their star-players side lined. So most scouts are checking out the role-players that are getting alot of playingtime early in the season.
Like our Chandler, Nate, and Lee contributions in the rotation.
The Knicks are being lead by a defensive PG-Duhon whom playingtime in Chicago has not been notice for his small role off the bench. Coach Dantoni is using PG-Duhon as a 35 mpg suprise to NBA oponents that have Crawful, Q.Rich, and Zach style down pack.
The Knicks added more ball-passing movement and an up comming star Wilson Chandler to the rotation with assistant coach Herb Williams pick n role n slash Nate & Lee to this new system that will push the ball when oponents are sleeping on defense.
This has Knick oponents wonder what happen to the ole Isiah Knicks that was so easy to beat. The Knicks three-point shots been keeping them in the mix....Boozer & Okur did not leave the paint giving Zach & Chandler uncontested 3 point shots and open jumpers.
What will Spurs Duncan, Kurt Thomas, Bowen, and Udoka do about this.... they all are strong rebounders.
The Knicks should be high on confidence vs the Spurs....however the Knicks been winning on their outside jumpers and 3's. Without Parker & Ginobli the Knicks have another chance to pull off 13 steals and force 20 turnovers like they did on Utah with Duhon & Nate causing havoc on defense.
The only thing that should worry Knick-fans is Crawful & Q.Rich are scared like **** of Bruce Bowen and may live at the three point line.
just in case, I picked up Roger Mason on my ESPN fantasy for tonight's game. ****, we may even see Michael Finley drop 40, ajjajaja
I don't know how the hell we're gonna be able to stop Mr. Duncan. I'm guessing Malik will see at least 15 minutes at the center spot tonight, and maybe even Jerome James should go in there and bang him up good.
I think the key is to attack the rim continuosly to get him in foul trouble.
I'm worried about the wear and tear that Chandler is gonna go through guarding guys like Duncan.
I got Crawford on my fantsay team, so I'm expecting a big night from him.
I think our team is starting to gel big time and will find a way to keep fighting for those W's and at least lose with dignity when we do come up short.
Anyways, 2night's Chandler posterization will feature Duncan getting face ****ed at the rim with an alleyoop from Robinson.
Knicks 110-Spurs 93
agreed richtree if we cant beat the spurs now dont think we ever will
but, i just got a bad gut about this game, hope and pray im wrong.
Whoever wants to do the game thread for tomorrow night (against memphis), go for it
I think we gotta score 120 to win this game...
there def is tuff....
we need to end quarters well...get a point here or there and attack glass
MOST IMPORTANTLY IF SPURS GO ON A RUN / WE HAVE TO SUB EARLY
if we win 120 - 114
if we lose 106-101
GL
Jpz should the thread for tomorrow, he's second best at it, and thats not a bad thing loll....anyways if its a defensive game were in for a long day then Rich,
^ im hyped waiting for the new site....rady gonna pimp this site out...
Knicks win 111 - 99! We're on a roll and the Spurs ain't used to playing without TP at the point. Big game for Duhon and JC
Low scoring first quarter, the Spurs are only giving us one shot on offense.
This is why we need another bigman....prefer a shotblocker to go with Lee and Zach
20-20
Can't believe we are leading at half after playing so horribly...
