NY Knicks: Knicks, the oldest team in the league, will they be able to outplay their younger counterparts? Injury seems to be rearing it’s ugly head as both starters Carmelo Anthony and Tyson Chandler are out and listed as day to day. Amar’e will be out for at least six weeks and Rasheed Wallace is also out for the remainder of the season with a “Jones fracture”.
The team lost the last four out of five games on the road by double digits. Despite the losses The NY Knicks are still in the lead in the Atlantic Division. There are eighteen games left in the regular season, eight at home and ten on the road. If NY is able to pull out a victory on at least half of those games to finish the regular season with 47 wins, that would place Knicks on top in the Atlantic Division which means NY will avoid the Miami Heat in the first round of the playoffs and championship dreams could quite possibly turn into reality.
