The bad news (other than Lee on Horford):

According to Rotoworld.com

Danilo Gallinari (sore right forearm) is listed as "questionable" for Friday's game against the Hawks.

Beat writer Alan Hahn reports that Gallinari's shooting arm did not look good in a pregame workout, and that he repeatedly had the arm tended to on the trainers' table. He will be a game-time decision Friday night, so check back before the game for a final update.

Well Al is one of the best scorers in the NBA, especially considering he plays about 5mpg less than everyone else in the top 20.

I've been waiting for Al to go for 50, looks like it might be tonight :)

haha cannot believe the smith ejection... wonder wtf he was saying on the court, seemed pretty cheap...

now we're up by 10, duhon chucks from 5 ft behind the line... please stop those crappy shots now, we are owning the paint this game

why cant we play like this every game.

all the guys are hustling a bit, putting the effort in, smart offense and not great but above average d. no gallo or nate and we are destroying the hawks 1st half.

when you see ssol offense running like this with 90% of the shots being good shots, its so pretty.

beginning of the third quarter, harrington looks real good, duhorn looks real good, lee looks real good. and it helps that smith was ejected, that really drained the air outta the hawks. knicks gotta keep playing smart, cuz joe johnson still hasnt erupted. hes prob due for some points sooner or later. hopefully we can pull through with this win. and watching the bulls play the cavs u can see their total LACK of offense. maybe we should ask for more if they want harrington, hopefully we can trick them into thinking hes the shit, with the way hes been playing now and get a draft pick.

well this was a great win, sure they got disrupted by the smith ejection but we played without gallo or nate so i'll take it.

when we play hard and don't settle for bad shots the whole game plays much better for us, they only took 2-3 bad looks down the stretch compared to other games when we will just be chucking and any 4th quarter lead gets diminished easily.

benching nate really does seem a big + to our team IQ.

Two good wins against the two top teams in the league (one from the West, one from the East)...what do they have in common?

Nate Robinson didn't contribute at all (and in tonight's case, didn't play).

Coincidence? Don't think so.

And they won without Gallo. Maybe the Knicks have turned this ship around, if Donnie trades Harrington he better get an unprotected first from the Bulls. The dude is a beast, he could really help Chicago.

its like these guys realized, "maybe we'll get paid if other teams see that we can play team ball instead of insistently chucking" schizo ass team.
