Knicks Projected Starting Lineup:

Curry/Randolph/Q/Crawford/Marbury

Bulls Projected Starting Lineup:

Wallace/Nocioni/Deng/Hinrich/Gordan

Knicks:

Isiah Thomas refuses to point any fingers. The embattled head coach of the Knicks wants the criticism for the current eight-game losing streak to come his way. He believes it's his job to instill needed confidence to correct all of the issues that are preventing wins. "I'm the coach, this is where it should be," Thomas said of the increasing heat after the 98-86 loss in Detroit. Fans in New York are getting anxious.

Bulls:

A year ago, the Bulls lost badly in Philadelphia the day after Thanksgiving and dropped to 3-9 on the season. The following night, they bounced back to beat New York and ended up winning 12 of the next 13 games. So even though the Bulls fell to 2-8 after a blowout loss at Denver on Tuesday, one bit of good news is the next stop on the annual circus road trip is Madison Square Garden on Saturday afternoon.

Well the Knicks are having their way with the Bulls.

Qrich does baffle me though, how do you grab a rebound a few feet from the rim, only to run out to the 3pt line to jack a 3

[USSKittyHawk]

Knicks did have a 10 point lead in the 2nd half, only to watch that diminish. Come on guys show some damn pride.

Nocioni is pissing me the hell off. He's playing like a ***** right now man. Flopping on Zach and even bull****ting an injury when NOBODY tocuhed him. Big Ben looks like he's becoming very good too, a very good flopper that is.

[HB]

For all the drama he has been through in the past week, Stephon looks pretty good out there right now

[knicksfan]

I really love the ferociousness Zach is playing with out there today. Balkman is playing tough too. These guys are the future of our team. We just need to get Zach to stop turning it over, but other then that he REALLY looks like he cares and wants to win at all costs. His game isn't limited either, as he has a decent jumper too.

[HB]

I dont know how Zach got that ball in, thats crazy!

[HB]

Did Stephon just kiss Jamal on the forehead?

[USSKittyHawk]

It feels good to finally win a damn game. Quentin was a rebounding machine...keep it up!
