Oops, Thought it was an 8 o’clock game. My apologies.
The Knicks try to continue to push for the 9th seed tonight against the dreaded Celtics of Boston.
Let’s go, Knicks!

I know we want losses, but I can’t root for the freakin Celtics
Trey and Frank running the tank into a ditch…….+13 each in 9 minutes
I…I guess this makes sense in a world where every NBA player is equally as productive?
On Earth, different players are worth different assets due to varying levels of skill. That’s why we’d all be excited had we gotten two second rounders for, say, Lance Thomas but are very upset about that return for Willy Hernangomez.
We probably weren’t going to move up more than one spot in the draft. I’m fine if Treyverson turns out to be the real deal.
I want Mudiay to surprise us, but man, he just sucks.
Can Burke actually be pretty good now??
I’d rather see Troy Williams than Beasley all night long, but that’s probably not good for the tank.
Williams is definitely fun to watch.
The new and improved A.I. clone reminds me of Lou Williams for his impact coming off the bench…
Williams could be another good find… If they’re going to fine him every time he shoots a three… 🙂
Williams seems to get lost on D, but he’s only been here a short time, so…
Wow, Williams! He can get up.
Burke and Williams make things at least close to worth watching by our standards, but Hornacek’s devotion to Lance Thomas and Beasley is really odd.
Give me more Williams, more Dotson and I’ll be content to let things fall where they may.
Burke turning into Lou Will would be an amazing signing.
I’d like to thank Kyrie Irving for saving the tank.
@12
See, that’s tough for me. I can’t stand Beasley on the court, but he is good for the tanks. So…
Hopefully Dotson and even Kornett and even Hicks start getting more time.
LT I can kind of see, up to a point, as he always plays hard (unlike Beas), so it is good to play him some with young guys. Up to a point…
This sure does make the Mudiay trade a lot more mystifying, doesn’t it? Maybe had they actually played Trey Burke instead of Jarrett Jack for weeks, we would know more about Trey Burke before dealing for another point guard.
Some really odd/fun lineups tonight from Horny,
Burke/Mudiay/Frank and especially Burke/Frank/Dotson nearly made me cry…
He deserve some credit for playing Beas 28 min, it was a loss saving move.
Anti-Kanter Frank with another low-box but high-plus game.
His D is legit. His shot will be good. His passing is thoughtful and clean. And I think Burke and Mudiay are pushing him in a good way. I just hope he doesn’t get buried by those who don’t see his value.
frank is still growing…he may end up playing the 3…he may also be the best defensive rookie this year…
troy williams sure can fly…
man, burke/kanter/timmy would make a heck of a bench – an expensive one at that…
nba league pass is having a free preview this weekend…it was nice to watch a game with no buffering and still get to hear clyde call the game…
wow, despite his very obvious athletic abilities mudiay looks really bad out there at times – a lot of times…
Someone tell me what adjusted whatever says about Frank. I feel like we have two major outliers between him and Kanter. Every time I look at a box score I feel like Frank put up a good line without putting up a good line. Maybe I just want to believe.
Good loss tonight
What Frank excels at the most is what the box office has the most trouble capturing, which is defense. Frank’s defense was especially good today, but in general, he’s been a fine defender.
