Dallas completes its two-game road trip Wednesday night at New York. The Mavericks have won the last seven games in the series, including three straight at Madison Square Garden. Mavs forward Josh Howard was at his best against the Knicks last season, averaging 24 points and 14.5 rebounds. Dirk Nowitzki averaged 26.5 points on 53-percent shooting. Dallas is 13-5 on the road, while the Knicks have a losing record (7-8) at MSG.

It's probably not a coincidence. Larry Brown settled on a starting lineup five games ago and the Knicks have only lost once since. They spent two months digging a hole, though. Now that everybody is acquainted, things are looking up. The Knicks have won four straight heading into Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks, and they've looked good doing it. "I've been feeling good about the effort every day," Brown said. "Now we've got a pretty good understanding of our roles.

Re: Knicks vs Mavs: Jan 11, 2006
If we win this game I can see the momentum continuing for about 8-10 games. Back2backs are the hardest, we're home so lets see what happens.

Re: Knicks vs Mavs: Jan 11, 2006
Back2 backs are hard but they are at home and hopfully the crowd can keep the team going. If we pull this win off the knicks may start a media mad house on how good the team is doing.

I agree, maybe Lee gets inside Dirk's head and makes him lose his temper like he did in the pre-season matchup.  Didn't you guys notice the LarryBrown/Knicks meltdown thread in the Bulls forum has done a meltdown of it's own once our winning streak took shape.

Re: Knicks vs Mavs: Jan 11, 2006
I believe this game depends on how they defend Dirk. At all the other starter positions we are either equal or better since they aren't starting Josh Howard for some reason. If Dirk is held to around his season average, this game is easily do-able.

Re: Knicks vs Mavs: Jan 11, 2006
Calling all knick fans, I repeat calling all knick fans! I know we are on a roll but this is a VERY good team. We may have to come back to reality when they L tonight. Im not saying we are going to loose, but dont be surpised if we are down by like 30 at half or something like that. They are just a better team then us, if we win tonight it would be a steal thats for sure. But lets hope for the best eh?
Lets Go KNICKS!

Re: Knicks vs Mavs: Jan 11, 2006
This is a huge test for the Knicks, a whole lot to gain here. A five game winning streak and a win over one of the best teams (No. 3 in most power rankings behind DET and SA) can do wonders for this young team's confidence.
Bottom line: Knicks have to step up and protect their home court.

Well to be fair, that was after Stern changed the league policy on carrying weapons and KG could no longer distract Zach with his pump, uzi and couple M-16s.
