Knicks: Are the Knicks for real?

[LkrFan]

having Jason Kidd makes them automatic favorites to face Heat in the East finals.

still I don't see them making the finals unless Stern releases his pack of Knick referees

Kidd is key for them. Obviously he's still a good passer/facilitator, but his defense is underrated. I can see him slowing Wade down (so far Wade is averaging a paltry 14ppg v. Knicks) which will put more pressure on Bron to carry them and check Melo. That's a tall order tbh.

3 point shooting teams or jump shooting teams dnt win come playoff time see spurs

[Trill Clinton]

yes, they're for real.

melo is that dude, they have depth, solid D, good coaching.

the knicks are the best team in the east.

Wasn't Sefolosha going to slow Wade down and Durant a tall order for LeBron? Same idiotic thinking, different team.

LOL no... it's still the Heat, tbh....

i don't think they're better than the heat by much, but they're better right now.

i hope they can keep it up.

1) Wade has lost a step or two (until he plays scrub teams and give you hope)
2)) Melo is a bull - unlike KD. KD is paper thin and can't do much with a 265lb dude. Melo can
3) I don't recall Bron ever locking down Melo. Melo's Nuggs seemingly always push Bron's Cavs in. Apparently not much has changed when they switched teams.

Ernie Johnson's neat-o stat of the night: Daddy Tyson is holding Bosh e to 8-25 shooting. Heat lose by 20 twice.

[Josepatches_]

Felton,JR Smith ,Melo & Amare??

NOT

[DMC]

With JKidd on the team, it should run differently.

Melo scored 30 points on 10-28 shooting last time they played they each other. That's getting locked down.

Hi Midget....you miss me today baby?

[Latarian Milton]

knicks will be a tough challenge to us tbh. they got all talents needed to achieve some massive successes and they've been playing with great chemistry now, and all these magical changes were catalyzed by the ex-mavs named kidd n tyson.

Dallas?

The haters are getting a hard on for the Knicks because of regular season success. The Knicks are not in Miami's league. The only way they even manage to push the Heat to 6 games is if Miami s around. Only 1 team is for real this season and that is the Miami Heat. The compe ion is much weaker this season compared to last.

Sup Daunte? You coming to Alisha'a semester finale party tonight? She keeps asking about you

[Technique]

This is LeBron on the Cavs all over again. Except I'd take Mo over Chalmers

[ALVAREZ6]

htf is he going to win mvp when 2 of the biggest games he either didnt play in or didnt show up

against the spurs below par season avgs
didnt even turn up for the heat

Good point, this is a huge factor in the MVP decision. If you miss a couple of games you have no shot... how the is he gonna win MVP if he has below par averages against the Spurs???????

*** BUMP ***

The only silver lining to this loss is I'm starting to believe the Knicks have a strong chance at keeping the Heat out of the Finals this year. Even with Melo playing only 23 minutes, the Knicks still beat us. Melo should win his first MVP this year.

[rayjayjohnson]

I still ing hate melo tbh

No brother the silver lining is that we made a comeback and had the chance to win without to key starters.

[100%duncan]

Heat is still the best team in the NBA tbh...

[lefty]

I still ing hate melo tbh

Melo is not amused by your comment
