    Knicks Will Finish 56-26 and Be the #2 Seed in the East In This Year's Playoffs
    I have seen all three games so far and the Knicks have that "chemistry". The sum of the parts they added and those they kept (like Mike Woodson and J.R. Smith) far outweigh what they lost (in Amare, D'Antoni and Jeremy Lin). They all play defense and hustle together....can shoot the three point shot....and actually pass the ball around and have good floor spacing.

    Basically some of the positive things we saw in spurts last season are now becoming "staples" of this team's identity.

    Melo....Tyson...J.R. Smith....Felton all back and playing well and to that you add Prigioni...Jason Kidd...Ronnie Brewer....and Rasheed Wallace? There is a lot of depth, experience and talent on this team.

    Oh yea....and Shumpert and Amare and Camby have still yet to play!

    The East outside of Miami and maybe Brooklyn and Boston is garbage. Knicks already b*tch slapped the Heat once too.....look out. 56 wins easy this year with this depth.

    not grossly overpaying for lin will prove to be the best move they made

      The Knicks starting 3-0 is just like the Lakers starting 0-3.

      Let's not overreact too much.

          true

          it's a nice start but 56-26 is a huge stretch. this team opened as a 4.5 point underdog to the 76ers, let's keep that in mind

              Not changing my stance on this....and I am not making this claim based solely on their record. I have watched them play....they remind me a lot of the 2010 Mavericks team.

                Really? Knicks started out 3-0 against two playoff caliber teams last year too?

                        Where is the word "lock" used in this thread? Go get a job with TMZ if you want to make stuff up.

                        We will see in April.

                            Vegas line setters don't get games wrong from time to time? A lot of lines will be off this early in the season. What's the big deal.

                                Knicks were severely capped wrongly at +4.5 against the 76er's tonight. Called it last night when the lines came out and it moved to +2.5 by game time. Let's see how long it takes Vegas to figure out how good this team really is. And whoever said a sprained ankle away from a bad season is a tard. Do you people even watch the games? Or just the eSPN highlights??? SMH.

                                  the 4 losses, duncan, gino, and parker will rest

                                    this knicks team is too old

                                    guys like camby and kidd will look good in november but after the all star break this team will be decimated by injuries

                                      Wrong. They have still have J.R. Smith, Prognioni, Shumpert and Felton to help out. This team is too deep and rotates well enough that everyone stays fresh.

                                                    Do I need to have a problem to laugh at your homer comments?

                                                    Just interacting, relax 210.
                                                    I am relaxed....lol Just curious. You can input if you feel I am overreacting or not. Personally I don't think so or I wouldn't have posted what I did. Once again time will tell if I am correct.

                                                      When you're wrong at the end of the season what are you gonna do? Man up that you were really the HOMER for doubting?

                                                      I doubt it.

                                                                If the Knicks end up winning 55+ you are wrong for doubting. What don't you get?
