You're not very good at math, are you?
Which four of the bottom seven East Conference teams are all going to leap frog the fifth place 19 and 18 Knicks?
Math says even if NY goes 20 and 24 the second part of this season they wind up 39 and 42.
Do you expect Cleveland and Washington each to go 25 and 20 providing NY only does win 19 the second half?
Indy will get in, that'll push NY down to the six seed, what other three teams out of the current bottom seven will push NY out?
Orlando? Detroit?
15 teams, 8 get in, your fading an over .500 team at the half way point, against three sub .500 teams that all must go at least 6 games over .500, not one team, but three teams, all in 44 games left to play?
And you are laying -130 on top of all that.
My God you truly have no idea how math works, either that or you are a special kind of idiot.
Don't just take my word for this, go to sports reference dot com, they do for a living what I do for pleasure, they are the go to source I use to back my opinions up, the also agree with me, that NY does in fact make the playoffs with at least one game to spare, and they base their facts on 10,000 simulations run through computer programs designed to do just that.
But you are once again the smartest man in the room, huh Skippy?
And you're laying 13 to 10 that all the professionals are wrong.
