<font size="2"><font face="Comic Sans MS">I think that the final score will be Bull 107 Knicks 104 in a nail-biter. We will need to watch out for the inside game that the Knicks birng to the table. They have 4 guys that can really get it done in the post: JYD, Kurt, Nazr, and Sweetney and they all are liable of doing some major damage.</font></font>

 

[Nylex]

Knicks have a lead going into the break

.

 

[Ming637]

Knicks lose, like I expected. What was wrong with Kurt Thomas in crunch time man? He fouled 2 times leading to 4 points, which could've been abvoided. Trevor Ariza and Starbury played well tonight, but it dosen't matter to me. I just hope the Knicks get some revenge on Monday.

 

[Mr. J]

If Nylex never posted, I would have missed the rest of this game. I thought that it was at 8. Anyway, what a way to lose. I feel very embarrased, and frusturated. How did that last play happen. That blind save from Chandler, that Curry finish? Definitely a heartbreaker. To Wilkens: Don't ever give the ball to Nazr in clutch situations! If he were to do that, how come he didn't run that Philadelphia alley-oop thing? I wouldn't have felt so bad if Marbury missed the game winner but, Nazr took a last second shot that didn't come close to going in. Chicago is a good team and if they were still that 0-9 team, I don't know what I would do. We need Crawford back though. He would have given us a good option for the last second shot.

Ariza played great though. He got blocked at the end and that cost us the game but, he really did his thing. His jumpers were water, and he was crashing the boards. He was a bright spot for us, and he will eventually tur into a superstar like I said.

who made this crappy preview. oh sonics1 my bad good job.

Hey the bulls are playing very well, and i expected them to win. I expect the bulls to make a strong push next year if they dont go far in the playoffs this year.

 

[TnNeG]

bulls have been doing good lately, but i still dont get how the hell do you lose to the bulls. arent they like a 5-15 team?

No actually they are 16-18. they lost to the bulls because the bulls didnt give up. You made that comment out of anger. But the Knicks have another chance on monday. No disrespect to the Knicks forum.

ONE(love)

 

[Knicks Analyst]

This was a horrible game for us to lose. I am pissed about the Jets losing, and the Knicks too. There's not much to say.
We lost - again.

btw- TNG, do some research. Bulls <font size="4">aren't </font> 5-15.

How do you figure bulls are doing good with a 5 - 15 record? lol

 

[TnNeG]

Sorry im not a bulls fan, just a knicks fan. So i wouldn't know.

 

[50]

You should still keep up with the other teams and if you look at HoopsHype or Sportscenter it will show that they arent 5 and 15.

 

[TnNeG]

No, thats not me. I only look at other teams if the knicks are interested in trading with them or something. I never look at other teams stats.

 

[I-Miss-MJ]

I meant if you thought the bulls were 5 - 15, how could you think they were doing good?

never seen a good 5 - 15 team

 

[Penny]

Not sure if this is a good thing or a bad thing, the New York Knicks are 17-19 and still first in the Atlantic Division.

I guess this is a case of -- 'do you see the glass as half empty or half full'

I usually respond by saying, I don't care is someone going to drink that ........... lol just playing.

On the real though, I am getting frustrated! This needs to end, the Miami Heat would be able to beat the Chicago Bulls, and right now the New York Knicks are nowhere near their level, either team.
And as long as the New York Knicks are on a subordinate level they can never reach the Conference Finals.

 

[ChicagoSportsFan]

Much love to the Knicks They played hard I cant wait to see them play the bulls on monday. And I love to see marbury play that man is vicious. Nazr good game I hope he keeps it up and doesnt become Raja Bell. If He could give that type of performance every night the Knicks will be that much harder to beat. But I believe that the Knicks are a better team without crawford Maybe youall should consider trading crawford for some inside talent or atleast a 7footer. Its hard to win without a center.
