No let downs against these douchebags. As H20 mentioned, they played the Heat well.

I'm telling you, Woodson has our crew focused. we're not playing down to opponents anymore, we're playing to get better. our goal is to be the best team we can be going into the playoffs.

by the way, Deron is sitting this one out. and, yeah, the Nyets played Miami well, but what happened down the stretch?

Confirmed on Deron? I thought there was still a chance he'd play.

They definitely look focused and the culture Woodson has created is exactly what this club needed. Really love what we're seeing from these guys especially against the teams we're supposed to beat. Still, I hate to get cocky. It's been awhile since I could do that and feel good about it.

[n8 the gr8]

Can't wait for this game. And I'd hate to jinx it, but lol @ their starting lineup.

[knicksH20]

i want BLOOOOOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mase in your face]

I'm afraid that they might not count this game in the standings since we're playing the D-league

I guess you can thank the Celtics for helping us with Williams being out...

This Nets team might lose to Kentucky. Teague and Lamb could hold their own against Gaines and Brooks. I like Kidd-Gilchrist and Jones over Green and Humphries. And Anthony Davis is clearly better than Jordan Williams.

[nbafreak724]

I want to beat this team by 50 points. I'm still hurting from the last time we played them and Deron lit it up at the Garden.

By the way, this is one of the last games in New Jersey, correct? And the last time the Knicks will ever step foot in that state.

[knicksH20]

i still hate the nets as much as i hated the team when richard dick jefferson and jason mole kidd were on that team. and that asshole kenyon martin. and that alien-lookalike skittles. and everyone else. that turd of a coach leprechaun what's his name. i hated that guy. scott skiles? i hate that man.

[Mr. Glass]

Do we have a magic number or is this thing going down to the wire?

The perfect ending to this season would be for us to secure a playoff spot ASAP, rest Anthony and get Amare back in shape, drop down to the 8th seed, and be ready for the Bulls for Game 1.

Go NY!

[bigloley]

This has typical Knicks loss all over it.

But I'm starting to be won over by Woodsanity....so no LET DOWN GAMES

KNICKS WIN
