The Gold Mac
The New York Knicks vs the San Antonio Spurs
July 16 @ 4:00PM ET on MSG


Welcome back to the official Msg33 aka Gold Mac 10 game preview. The Knicks will be playing the 2nd game tomorrow afternoon against the San Antonio Spurs. The Knicks managed to beat the Cavs by 3 points largely because of Wilson Chandler consistent play throughout the game and Danilo Gallinaris big 2nd half performance. Anthony Roberson was the 2nd leading scorer for the Knicks scoring 22 points. No official word yet on whether or not Nate Robinson will play...not that it matters. He doesnt need to play. The majority of knicks fans would rather see Mardy Collins get more minutes. Collins had an impressive all around game on Tuesday.

Gallinari should have a big game since he got the first game out of the way. Gallinari plays like a God amongst men and you could feel his presence on the court. Dude is going to be mad special.

did anyone see dj augustine drop 30 last night? 9/14 fg, 10/11 free throws
he is nice....can get to the basket at will, and he's very strong fo r a guard 6 ft

That San Antonio team looks weak. Nevertheless, we'll probably see Adeleke challenge our frontline nicely and George Hill really push our guards along with Hairston.

BTW, totally agree with Augustine being one of the top products of this draft.

MSG whats your key-match up for today?

Im not too familiar with anyone from the spurs....im gonna go with wilson chandler vs the spurs as the key matchup. Tuner mentioned a F/C who will dominate us...wouldnt suprise me if hes right. We got several sf's and guards on our team..but i expect us to get owned by PF/C's who know how to play.

JJ Hickson tore us apart, so we can clearly see we're a small team without anyinside presence.

The French guy I mentioned is averaging 14 ppg and 8.5 rpg

co-sign...but i think we'll out run them and easily win this game. Nate and chandler will dominate

What do you reckon: does N8 play in the summer league to put Marbury out of business? Normally he is much better -- and by now older -- than playing summer league.
