So, what do you think? Playoffs this year?
1: Philly have Brand out for a month and a new coach.
2: Toronto are flailing.
3: D Wade can't do it all.
4: We can beat Detroit any night we want.
5: New Jersey wear fish nets.
January and February are pretty horrible months schedule wise. Big road swings and nasty match ups with bigger teams. Harrington and Lee's performances will be crucial to success. Our guards will have to rebound more. Wilson Chandler needs to get on the boards and find some consistency in a big way as does Q. The passing lanes need to be clogged on D and transition offense is gonna be a massive factor.
There's a thousand ifs, buts and doubts but in the poll for season outcome prognosis, 41% believed that the Knicks would win 31-39 games.
That's a realistic number and potentially a ticket to the playoffs as the 8th seed.
32% said 40 or more wins.
If we can manage a beneficial trade for Fats Curry or even get the lazy Buddha to play again in a supportive, constructive role, that would be an enormous plus and may well tip us over the edge of uncertainty.
Thoughts please.
This is an edited version of a previous thread that I have reinstated now that the Knicks are feistyer than they've been in 4 years. Some comments may seem out of kilter so do not talk any unwelcome or unwanted smack about them.
Cheers.
