Despite the fact that we are in Atlanta and they are only sitting one starter, we are actually up 61 - 44 late in the 2nd quarter. Are we really going to win another one and just give Minny the worst record? Seems kind of counter-intuitive after essentially having the worst record almost locked up last week.

I wonder how many fans want Galloway traded like right now. Dude is having the game of his life. He's like 6-6 from 3s going for a Knick record

This is the Knicks we are talking about.... They consistently deliver worst case scenarios year after year... Decade upon decades now... We'll end up sixth, as OKC will probably land a lottery miracle and jump us.
last place team has won the number one pick twice in its 19 year history (current format). Either that means they are due... Or it doesn't matter really. Even if we land that pick, we probably draft the Oden over a Durant anyway
Mafra, I think you're right "Curse of the Knicks". Knicks fans need to chill because as you say we could still wind up picking number one but it would have been comforting to pick no lower than 4th when 4 names are considered locks in this draft.
Mind boggling that a team with less than 20 wins could beat the Spurs and the Hawks. DFish and PJ have to take a lot of positives from these 2 wins, maybe they don't break up the Knicks and bring in 7 new players.
There's nothing really to take from those wins. Galloway was already in the fold as a keeper, he plays hard and he'll probably stay on the team the whole yr next yr, guaranteeing his deal. THJR and Cole Aldrich had some good performances past couple games, there's nothing to take over into the summer from what they did. Lance and Lou are 11th and 12th man scrubs on any given competitive team, 4th-10th man on a lottery team(and that's what we are). Travis Wear played meaningful minutes against the Spurs never saw light of day for the rest of the season and Shved and Bargs were contributors that game but ghost against Hawks.
The Spurs lost to the Lakers this yr too but go take a look at their record since losing to us. They became about that life afterwards. The Hawks are coming off a public stabbing and arrest incident in which one of their players had their leg broken by the cops and like I said have been sitting then playing then sitting guys for about a month. It's called teams playing down to competition, it happens

Our execution in almost everything we did concerning this season was spot on dreadful. The only thing we got right was not re-upping Larky and finding Galloway on the cheap.
Can't count Shved yet because his situation has major cap implications, wasn't by design, and is incomplete at this point.
