I have refrained from commenting on the wins and losses of the recent past mostly to avoid getting too excited by a streak of games that seemed to indicate that the Knicks were playoff bound.
What we have seen, though, unlike in other years is a genuinely competitive Knicks team that quite honestly everyone wrote off as a renmtal team. These guys barring some serious impairment are playoff bound.
And I must say that last night's defeat of an angry (having gotten ripped off by Cleveland for two losses), talented Atlanta team n their home court is more than just an amazing victory. I think it signifies that this Knicks team may not be just one and done in a playoffs series.
Last night's game was surreal in the intensity of competition. Atlanta wanted to crush the Knicks and the Knicks down by 13 at the beginning of the fourth quarter not only went on to tie but to crush Atlanta.
This was the one of the best games the Knicks had played in a decade and it may be a turning point for the team.

Necessities
Ye Newe Glory-torium
Here, dear readers, is the final resting place of all weary Knicks fans. Yes, here is where one comes when the Triangle refuses to have three sides, when biting one's lip from losing to win later is one loss too far,or when said fan simply hits 'rock' bottom. In short, "the ship be" eternally "sinking" here. Welcome aboard, rearrange the deck chairs as you please.
