    Knicks and Clippers will both be bounced in the first round

    With Amauri pretty much done for the season Knicks season is all but over. Whether their the 2,3 or 4 seed Chicago, Boston and Atlanta can all beat them in a 7 game series. Knicks defense has been horrible since their hot start and I don't see them stopping anyone especially if they face Rose and the bulls or the Celtics.

    On the other hand the Clippers have looked good from time to time however their nothing more than a show team. They were lucky to beat the Grizzlies last year before getting swept by the Spurs in the 2nd round. If memphis doesn't blow a 20+ point lead in the fourth Memphis could have won that serious in 5 or 6. Very difficult for the grizzlies to recover after that big melt down. Sure the dunks and lobs are fun to watch however once the playoffs start they will rely heavily on guard play and Paul will need to play extremely well for them to go on any kind of run. Looking at potential matchups if they finish as the 3rd seed they will likely play G.S, Houston or the Lakers. the warriors have already beaten them twice this year while the Lakers are finally stepping it up.

    Charles Barkley pretty much said the same thing....he said the Knicks and the Clippers were the "cubic zircona" the NBA (fake playoff threats)....lol

    I like San Antonio or Oklahoma vs. Miami again in the Finals.

    Melo with the Knicks are no different than Melo when he was with the Nuggets, all 1st round exits except for the year when Chauncey Billups lead that team to the Western Conference Finals.

    Melo has only played in a playoff game 6 twice in his entire illustrious careerThat means his lead teams are always 1-4 and done.
