There IS Hope for the Knicks!

I'm proud of my boys. The season is lost, but they're out there hustling and playing hard. Great wins against the Spurs & Rockets.

With a healthy McDyess and a decent draft, Knicks should be alright next season. But they must keep Sprewell. He & Houston are the heart & soul of this team.

Since the season is lost, maybe they should unretire Larry Johnson and Patrick Ewing to let them have a finale tour, so the Big Apple will have less empty seats. And yeah, the win over the Spurs were very impressive.

How would bringing those two back get fans to come back. They need LeBron.

Yeah a big win over Yao and the Rockets plus beating San Antonio. I think we wont make the playoffs but if they continue to beat some of the contenders it would be very much BIG!

Larry Johnson retired too soon, I believe he could have done much more than that, and Patrick was the NY heart. After he left, NY has been nothing more than a joke. But I agree with you, this is helpful for the Knicks, If you guys remember, the only way San Antonio could have a 1st Pick to take Duncan was having Robinson injured the whole year, so They got the first pick being one of the worst team at that moment. And Also Agree with Clinton, maybe they need Lebron if we are talking about bringing fans here & he comes elegible for the draft. But regarding the win over Houston, it was not a big win, it was an outstanding Win, the best win I believe so far, Doleac played like I've never seen him since he became a N. Yorker, he just went one on one against Ming, blocked him and I believe his stats were much like comparable. Ming shot below .500 and that's an accomplishment for Doleac, Good Job Doleac!!!!!!!!!!!

Doleac, I think is now showing why the Knicks signed him in the offseason by providing the much needed work. He played well against San Antonio he scored what 16 points. On the Lebron issue, I think the Knicks will be a long shot regarding the No. 1 pick but if we go down as one of the worst in the league this year, we have a shot at Lebron. Man, Spoon and Kevin Willis ejected. MAN!

Not with his back in the condition it was. He was doing the team more harm by sticking around.

Patrick Ewing couldn't return unless he resigned as an assistant coach for the Wizards.

Well dont look now but the Knicks are making a run for the playoffs they have moved into 9th in East and are 2 games out of the top 8!

If they continue the great play they could be in the playoffs when McDyess returns end of the regular season!

what is "Big L" doing with himself?
the knicks had herb williams at the very end of the bench for years, larry could have that seat, just him been around the team everyday would help them
