You're gonna come into a Knicks thread and predict a win for your rival Bulls and want us to hook you up with the top spots in NYC? What do you think we are, Minnesotans?

Shumpert is stepping up big with the absence of Lin and Amar'e...If the Knicks won tonight there would be a Shumpsanity story line in New York

Man don't act like you wouldn't do the same...

so at this point its either hold on to the 8th spot or maybe catching philly for that 7th who do we rather play

Miami is an absolute nightmare of a match up, the Knicks for some reason match up well with the Bulls and the games are always close.

His game is maneuvering into open spaces for kickouts and spot shooting off of screens. We have to get him more looks off screens. Unfortunately our second best screener Jared Jefferies is out so all we got right now is penetration/kickout for Novak.

my thoughts exactly. If we want to see Novak throwing up by the 4th quarter, then let's run him off screens all game long

ESPN has Shump ranked as the 21st best rookie yall dont even want to know who he's behind.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

ESPN is a joke man, I'm glad they have Shump ranked so low.

 

[duba169]

Espn makes money off angry new Yorkers visiting their sites.

Don't give them hits

 

[nycknicks105]

I was just about say, does anyone have the article to the ESPN rookie list?

I still want to read it.

Our organization seems shady when it comes to injuries. Claimed Lin was day to day. Amare was find etc

Lin had an MRI and they didn't disclose it.



Woodson last night also revealed Lin earlier this week had an MRI exam, which the club never announced. The Knicks continue calling it a “sore knee,’’ but it is believed there could be loose cartilage that could eventually need offseason surgery.

“I don’t think he bumped it,’’ Woodson said. “He tweaked it and he’s not feeling too well.’’


“He mixes it up,’’ Woodson said. “When you’re a point guard, you’re getting touched by big guys on pick and rolls. It’s tough. He’s pretty good at getting to the bucket and finishing and taking the blow and drawing fouls. It’s a lot of wear and tear on the body.’’

With the way Baron Davis has been playing we need Lin back asap. And I agree, what's with the Knicks giving us half the story with these injury reports?

 

[upptempo8387]

Damn man..Not having Lin for the playoffs would just about guarantee another 1st round exit..Plus, we don't know how effective Amar'e will be coming off of multiple weeks of not playing basketball, and his back might not be 100% when he does return.

After the loss to the Hawks, Tyson said his groin was in pain, Carmelo said he felt like he re aggravated his groin injury, and Baron's hamstring is tightening up. The injury bug is biting this team HARD

We just have no luck as a franchise man

Patrick Ewing curse continues

 

[yeeupp]

We should limit some mins

 

[|A-Man|]

With the way Dolan is yall lucky to get any info at all. He could create some no leakage policy and shut down any reports about the team and we wouldn't know who is playing until tip off. %%%% with fantasy team players and gamblers across the country

IMO though I don't care if Lin gets an MRI or not. Just let me know if he's playing or how long he'll be out for.

Do you honestly think Lin would matter for you guys against Chicago or Miami?

Hope Amare gets better soon though.

The Knicks have owned the Hawks the last couple of years..They won 8 of the last 10 against Atlanta before last night. Had Amar'e or Lin played, the Knicks win that game and are like 3 games back of Boston for the division lead with 14 games to go. Obviously the Knicks chances of winning the division become much lower when 2 of your top 3 offensive players are out for possibly the rest of the season. So idk why you're assuming the Knicks would automatically be stuck in the 7th or 8th seed.

 

[|A-Man|]

Chi yeah, MIA not so much unless he really gets that balance of penetration and pull up js down.

 

[dman14]

rose isnt quite healthy himself. but they need lin and amare if they want to move up from 7/8. so they are missed out there.

 

[big j 33]

Lin will have arthroscopic surgery to repair a torn meniscus. He'll be out six weeks.

 

[pauliepeppas]

Lin torn meniscus out fir the year, fml

 

[upptempo8387]

With Lin out for the next 6 weeks, this team is screwed..We're not moving out of that 7th/8th seed with Baron as the starter..Time to give Toney some burn off the bench and hope he returns to old form. Bibby as the backup is gonna get eaten alive in the playoffs

 

[gregzzy23]

I wanna cry. Idc if our chances of winning the ship were slim, I at least wanted to see them fight for it.
