    I think the Knicks are losing on purpose

    Seriously I think the New York Knicks are losing on purpose. They have lost 6 game straight. I think they want to be seed 8 so they can play Chicago and avoid Boston and Miami early on. Basically seed 8 will be like seed 1 to them so when they get to the 2nd round they either play 4 or 5.

    Now if that's what they have on their mind I say that is an excellent plan. What you guy think about this.

    Why would anyone want to avoid the Celtics after the trade they made? They have been a garbage team since and Chicago is playing out of their minds right now.

    Even if the Bulls get a 1 seed, they will only be at best the 2nd fav to win the east

    2nd seed and below they will be 3rd fav to win it. OP is the only one here smart enough to realize this.

    I like your theory. I actually thought about that myself. I think they match up better with Chicago than Miami or Boston. Either way, New York goes down in the first round anyways.

    New york plays no defense if doesnr matter who they play. They will never play defense ever ever ever play any defense. Carmelo will score 71 in a loss 133-110. They let charlotte and Milwaukee score 100+

    this theory is retarded. they dont want to see the Bulls despite beating tem twice this season, because they traded away the team that beat the Bulls any way. Gallinari, Felton, Chandler, those are exactly the guys who gave the Bulls trouble in their last 2 meetings.

    These Knicks suck, they'll be swept in the first round no matter who they face, whether its Miami, Bulls or Celtics...don't matter...


    and D.Rose never forgets, you know hes pissed about the Knicks being the only team the Bulls havent beaten this season. You know he's going to annihilate them the next time they meet.

    The losing on purpose theory only applies when you can't win on purpose.

    This is the NBA, which means this theory wouldn't shock me if it was true.

    they dont "match" well with any team that can play defense. Miami, Chicago, Boston...arent all these teams top 5 in defense?

    Chicago has like 3 very capable centers, if anything they match better with miami and boston, i agree...just cuz of that.

    The Knicks are struggling because Amare is refusing to play the role of Pippen to Carmello. Amare is needed for more def. and rebounds. If he would be willing to cut his points to 16 or so a game, the Knicks would be a better team. Is it fair to ask Amare to do this considering he was there before Carmello? No but Carmello is not willing to have his shots/touches/points cut in any way. If Amare cares about being a winner, he is going to have to sacrifice because Carmelo sure as heck wont

    For those that say why a team who look on purpose well look at David Robinson and the spurs losing on purpose to get Tim Duncan in the first round draft. There is a reason for losing sometimes.

    Also many of you guys think you are pro's on knowing what's going on with basketball from NBA to NCAA then why you lose more then you win if you are a pro and know it all. I can show my record for the NCAA that I did betted on VCU, UCONN, BUTLER, and UK to win and before those games also. So if you all on type of pro's why are you losing all the time. I don't consider by self a pro but I am doing better then most of you when it comes to betting.
