Boston Celtics at New York Knicks

[hawley]

Knicks and Celtics played 2x this year. Both times, Knicks won by the spread.

Also considering that they won without Carmelo. Now imagine what it would be like with Carmelo. Knicks won by the spread times 10. LOL

Knicks is also 8-2 or something ridiculous like that on a Monday Night game. Also, MSG is a factor.

I'm taking the Knicks +2 and I'm riding her home. Both teams are desperate for a win. Boston to hold onto their #1 seed and Knicks are fighting for a playoff spot. Good luck to both.

Did they get Melo for free?

No Gallinari, Felton and Chandler anymore

Doh!!!

You have a point there. Add Gallinari, felton and chandler's points together and you get carmelo. LOL

So now, we have Knicks winning by just the spread. History will repeat itself or does it? LOL

Knicks ML for the blueballs.

Knicks plus points is the play here.

[Fischnasty]

loving the \knicks and the over on this one. not a huge play

[kingcheng]

celtics win...barely, and the under

[tullamore21]

I like the under.

Knicks been shooting like crap, played yesterday, no practice time to correct their bad shooting.

Agree, Celts need this game more and they're shooting like crap too. Rely on Celts to step up on defense when it's a clutch game.... betting they will still shoot crap but win game with good D. Knicks will try to score in the paint tonite, due to their poor shooting yesterday, so betting they won't shoot a lot of 3s and tempo will be slow.

GL. TBH: I'd stay away, both teams been hard to read lately.

So you think this is the factor for a team to come back from a bad scoring night? to practise before the game on shooting?
are you kidding me?
i agree with you, that the game goes to the Celts. They just can come on top, playing strong Ds.

[bumppinee]

knicks +1 first half if they cover taking them 2nd half aslo, bout to ride their ass like ace of spade.

[MrXYZ]

BOL with your plays, I'm sitting out this one

[JJV]

Maybe the knicks will beat the celtics tonight instead of falling just short

[bumppinee]

Thats what im talking about knicks cover the first half +1, 2nd half +4 1/2 bout to ride they ass on out like ace of spade.

[chantrain]

I was right, and I AM THE SMARTEST MAN ALIIIVE!

Knicks suck. They may have beaten the Celtics earlier in the year but that was a different team.

the cream rises to the top and the Celtics are that cream

[Jive]

I am ready to accept your apologies for doubting me.

The Knicks will never win without guys who can play TEAM defense (not just individual) and without more people who can rebound. Basically, that goes for any Mike D'Antoni team because his style will never be successful in the postseason in the NBA. Especially with the current roster the Knicks have.

Melo was by far the best player involved, but Denver won this trade. The Knicks better hope some stud forgets about the New York tax code long enough to ink with the Knicks this offseason, or they will always be a team that wins a fair share in the regular season, but usually struggles against the best teams, and ALWAYS exits the playoffs before reaching the promised land.

[Betting Guru]

the knicks suck. they lost a 11 point lead with 7 minutes to go in the game on their on court...lol

[DarkMage]

yeah the knicks did fall apart in the later half of the 4th, I knew it was coming but it was still funny to watch.

To give credit boston is one of the best in the east right now and the knicks are not even in contention to make it out of the first round this year.

[Inspirited]

glad the under hit here. thanks

[NYSportsGuy210]

This team is a joke. Just saw the replay of the game on MSG. No concept of playing defense or running a half court offense whatsoever.

Have they ever under D'Antoni?

[ROFLcopter]

The Knicks played great D up until the 4th quarter. They are fully capable of doing it - as seen in Miami and for the majority of tonight. Actually executing it is another matter. I would love to get Doc Rivers in here. This will likely be his last year in Boston

[thebestthereis]

all nba teams have players with two legs, size and a paycheck. every single one of them can play defense and rebound if they give shit, period. this isn't the first year they stepped on a court.
