The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

Re: The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

No one scores over 20, bench scoring over 35. Defense played a good game (except for the 3rd)

Got my Melo jersey on, off to work. 7pm can't get here fast enough.

Let's go Home Team.....

Isn't it in Miami?

Also, just saw the Knicks cheerleaders outside my building at work. I was in heaven for a few minutes.

Go Knicks! Big game tonight. Time to see what we got.

Our team has so much depth, who would have thought that going into the season?

Our starting 5 is up there with the best, and when you have a bench that consists of Baron, Jr, Shump, Jeffries, and Novak, that's just filthy. Not to forget Bill Walker, but it seems like he will be the forgotten man.

I was talking to a coworker, this team CAN be VERY dangerous. We need to win games and and avoid Chi or Mia first round. I'm not sure if we can beat those two in a 7 game series though. I don't think our defensive intensity can be there for that long, I hope I'm wrong.

I can't wait for tonight. Both teams are looking to make a statement. Should be fireworks. Go Knicks!

Man I couldn't help smile when Davis hit Smith with the oop. Our team feels very much like something you put together in NBA 2k in an association.... you tell yourself, nah, you're not cheating... the Knicks can do this in real life...

And now look.

Except in 2k you're not going to find an Uber diamond in the rough like Lin at the end of your bench.... Unless you go in and edit his ratings. lol

Knicks come out tonight and win in dramatic fashion. Linsanity will have a big game.

I feel good about this Heat game. If we limit turnovers and make it more of a half-court game, we'll be fine.

Re: The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

They beat the Heat last year with no bench.

Granted it took a Mr. Big Shot big shot and an amazing Amar'e block, but this team is better.

Not to take anything away from Miami because they are better this year too.

I think it should be a good game. Records don't tell the whole story. This Knicks team can be one of the top EC teams. They just have to remain focused every single game.

The fact they've lost to two mediocre teams during this ten-game run convinces me they just need to have the energy to perform. I can't fathom a reason they wouldn't be excited about this match-up tonight.

Re: The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

This Knicks team can be good but they need time to gel.

Baron needs to get his game legs. Shump has been banged up all year. JR is out there just "playing". And Amare...whoa Amare. He has no lift.

We'll see what the Knicks are really like after the ASG when that really tough schedule kicks in and the whole group gets to practice together.

I'm looking at Baron tonight if he can put a scare in some teams like he used to.

Re: The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

I just don't get how Amar'e can look like such a shell of the man he was just last year. I know he had the back injury, but he says he's 100%. What happened to explosive star we had last year?

Re: The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

I completely forgot about the team threads. I feel confident about our chances. Melo isn't afraid of the big moment unlike LeBrick. Lin rose to occasion against the Lakers and Mavs at MSG. Can he do it in Miami? Its not like it will be a hostile environment because you know Knicks fans will be out in full force and full voice tonight.

I'm pumped up for this one!

This is the question that I wish I could answer. For this game tonight, he simply can not allow the Mister Softee Ice Cream Man Bosh to dominate him. If Bosh or someone unexpected like Chalmers or Mike Miller goes off, we lose.

I don't have the sound on. Why are the minions there? What is going on?!

Never thought I'd ever say this but I'm sick of Amare taking jumpers.

I dont have a problem with it. That elbow spot is his comfort zone

Edit: i never minded bosh in toronto but his demeanor in mia makes me hate him. Lol dunno why. The facial expressions just kill me.

Re: The 2012 New York Knicks: The Filler Year?

We have some lazy rebounding and hustle at times.

When was the last time a knick hit the floor for a loose ball.

Prolly while Shump was starting.
