Ming637's take
With Othella Harrington starting, Knicks will be easy to score on, but I will still take the Knicks by no more than 6.
 
With no Houston in the lineup Knicks will have hard time to score,Marbury needs to keep the ball moving or score himself to get the W.(imo it was a mistake to trade KVH) Nuggets by 8
 
good attempt, but im sure that wont be the knick S/l weather houston is activated tonight or nazi gets the starting nod but coach wilkens is contunuously re tool his linup in order to get a win, but not on sunday nuggz by 1
 
We are going to be to tired to blow you guys out. I'll still say Nuggets by 7.
 
Nuggets by 7, my final verdict. Nene will kill Harrington.
 
Knicks by 2 in a nailbiter

What does that say? Limit turnovers, right? I thought that was a key too the game? Obviously the Knicks didn't think so.

Stephon Marbury, 9 turnovers in 32 minutes. Shandon Anderson had 5 in 22 minutes. It was terrible. You can't turn the ball over 24 times and expect to win.

Shandon Anderson had a decent game, and Penny was a bright spot. Allan Houston returning was good, jumper looked good, but wasn't falling.

Defensively, it was pathetic. How many times did the Nuggets throw a full court pass to a striding player for a dunk, and not one Knick was within 10 feet of the guy. Melo lit us up.

Overall it was a horrible game for the Knicks.

Yup, you cant turn the ball over against the Nuggets cause that the way they generate most of their O. They need to get out & run on the Fastbreak thru turnovers & the knicks played right into their hands. The Nuggets are the West coast version of the Nets. You want to make Dre & Melo make plays in the halfcourt not on the break.
 
Anyone missing Keith? *raises hand* Averaging 19+ points in 5 games with Milwaukee.
 
The Knicks turned the Ball 26 times and the Nuggets 21 times but the biggest difference was in the paint.The Nuggets scored 46 in the paint compared to the Knicks 28.The Knicks didn't play well last night.Hope that changes soon.
