Injuries & Playoff Foresight
With Chicago, Charlotte & Toronto playing much better basketball as of late, the Knicks are running out of time to get their shit together. Injuries to both, Jack of all trades, Jared Jeffries, and sixth man Al Harrington, will not make matters any easier.
Bender must drain open trays. Nate and Long Ball Larry need to hit open jumpers. David Lee should continue to be David Lee and I guess we will see what happens from there.
“Unfortunately, the Knicks don’t have the option of flushing their 18-27 record. They’ve lost five of their last seven games, and the schedule only gets tougher. Twenty-one of their last 37 games are on the road, starting tonight in Washington.”

“Well, Gallinari, I know he’s putting up decent stats and he looks good, but I don’t like the way he runs. He runs, to me, like a guys who’s just going to have more problems. It doesn’t seem like he’s been the same since he hurt his back.”
—Bill Simmons “The B.S. Report 1/13”
Playoff Watch- 1/25/2010
3 1/2 games behind the Chicago Bulls for the 8th seed.
“Stand-up is like scaring pigeons. If there’s only one or two pigeons and you try to scare ‘em, they might not fly away. Those pigeons might be the kind who don’t really care and they’re not scared. But if you have a hundred pigeons and you do the same thing, there’s a couple scaredy cats in there—they scare the other pigeons, and then they all fly. So there’s strength in numbers.”
—Demetri Martin “A Very Important Conversation with Demetri Martin”
