    Knicks

    This game has almost become a must win. 6 straight losses, coach resigns, playing at home against a Blazers team who is terrible on the road, and their whole city got tricked into believing this team is good lol.

    New coach's first game wins a great majority of the time in basketball and in hockey ( i know the knicks dont have an official head coach for tonights game but they will have a former assistant interim head coach tonight - same difference)

    I pounded the Toronto Maple Leafs a couple weeks ago when their new coach coached his first game. The Leafs pounded Montreal on the road 3-1 and outshot Montreal something like 41-20, and dominated them all night.

    leaning knicks

    and when that bubba coach McMillan gets canned this season take portland in their first game with the new coach (or their first game without McMillan - the team will respond and have a GS Warriors'esque type performance/effort from last night)

    Yea it usually looks like the players give extra effort to prove that it was the coach's fault that the team was underperforming

    Portland is the most puzzling team in the NBA. Blown out in consecutive games, and I have no idea why.
