The Knicks - The Return?

The Knicks seem to be making a big turn around from the last few years. Now on a 5-3 record, and showing massive signs of improvement, and getting a lot of production out of their young prospects. Not to mention finally playing as a team (without Marbury). Looks like all it did take was a coach change up and Marbury off the court. What does everyone else think?

I can see Knicks making it to playoffs this season, but probably getting stuck in first round. Once Marbury has gone along with cap space being made a bit more available, the Knicks will be a couple signings away from championship contention.

Lets not forget Curry has been out of action, and Gallinari is off the bench as well.

its good too see the knicks off too a good start, but i think play offs is pushing it. dont get me wrong i hope it happens,im a massive knicks fan from way back.New coach was the move everyone was screaming for , just need that marquee player to lead the young ones and things can only go up.

Anyone see their 3 point shooting stats today? Over 50% with 3 players going perfect. Chandler, Mini Nate and someone else. D'Antoni really does love his offence...if they can put it together defensively dont be suprised if you see them in the middle of the playoff 8 at the end of the year.

I am pleased to see the turnaround right now. However it's only early days and opposition teams will still be trying to work us out.

I'm not getting too carried away yet and it's too early to think potential playoff action.

I think we'll have a harder time in the Feb-playoffs part of the season to lock-in 7th or 8th place.

I'm happy with my Knicks team revival.


I shall continue to wear my Knicks cap to the 36ers games and around town on weekends when I go out.

Jeffries will be a bonus when he returns.

How bout coach D's ability to get the most out of guys?! Diaw in Phoenix, now he unearths Chandler in NY and the dude is playing his guts out.

Expect some more deals to be made before the deadline, though i don't think they will move steph- his cap releif is just too valuable. Look for them to move Curry though- he is still just yong enough for another team (hello Spurs) to take a punt on him.

We may see K Thomas back in knicks blue which would be awesome, he and coach D have history too.

Rookie Gallinari will need to get some real fitness, you gotta love how the coach sticks to his methods. Not fit- don't play. Last name Marbury- don't play.

I'm not a fan of Jefferies and consider him over-rated.
