My my! Rasheed in the post, Nate shooting from 3, Davis rebounding.

It's almost like they're playing the right way!

Bench, BABY! This bench is getting good!

atalnta is there and will be there...round 2 will be here fast....the knicks beat them 3 x this year...if i was coach i would want to know how.........also, learn the possible opponents teams too of course........that is the job for a coach........si..? prepare a strategy..for upcoming opponents...!

If the standings end as is, we would be playing Orlando in the 2nd round, not Atlanta.

We could only play Atlanta in ECF, even if we move to the 3rd spot.

Are you serious? You focus on WHO YOU'RE GOING TO PLAY FIRST.

Looking ahead is what gets teams upset all the time. Especially if you waste time on Atlanta. You realize Atlanta is likely going to be the 3/4 seed, meaning the ONLY way we play them is if we both go to the ECF, or one of us falls to the 5th spot?

If I could take away Tommy points for these last two posts, I would.

Yup.

So why would Doc focus on them, Meadowlark? If they get the 4th spot, they won't get past Cleveland... If they get the 3rd spot, they'll make it interesting, but they won't beat Orlando.

They've shot 2x as many foul shots as us.

If I see Pierce drive the lane one more time and clearly get the s*** knocked out of him, without getting a call, I'm personally going to the NBA's headquarters and punching David Stern right in the mouth.
