HOW LONG BEFORE D'ANTONI OUITS OR IS FIRED????

��First sign of Cardiac Arrest- Chest Pain

Despite every effort to stay on a minumal positive note, we may have assembled the WORST KNICK TEAM

in the History of the KNICKERBOCKERS! If you had stomach enough to watch the preseason game against

Boston....yes, our worst nightmare has come to pass. This collective "Team" would not be favored to

win the NCAA Big Dance and even money would not be a bad bet that they would not win the NIT.

If you watched the Boston Game, you could see D'Antoni was three beats away from what is called

"Ventricular Fibulation" or in laymans terms ...the same thing that happened to Marbury's father two years ago!

I'm as die hard a Knick Fan for life as you who may be reading this, however, being a fan does not mean

I'm blind. Imagine watching the Boston rerun for 81 games this year? Imagine the Prozac you would

have to ingest to save your sanity? I believe even D'Antoni won't be able to coach this plankton formation

until 2010. I don't think his health will hold up or the memories of the Sun's will help him this year.

Lebron James will not be coming to New York. If you want to save your sanity and believe that, fine!

Just be ready for a bigger meltdown as we finish last in the league and get the #1 draft pick that Utah

is drooling over, as James resigns with Cleveland. Walsh and D'antoni both need to go by mid season.

We need someone with a vision of hope. We need to see some light at the end of a dark, dark tunnel!

Most of all, we need someone to draft much better than what we did the last two years! Who will that person be?

�The Knicks arrive at Game 81tonight against the Miami heat with the possibility of fluctuating between the8th to 11th spot in this upcoming 2009 NBA draft lotto. Currently the Knicksstand in the 9th spot among the leagues lowly bottom feeders with the hope thata bolt of lightning, in the form of a number 1 draft pick, and some shrewddrafting can help stem the tide of their decades long misery of consecutivelosing season.� However, for theKnicks to improve their miserable luck in this years draft lotto by even1.1(8th spot) or 2.6 (7th spot) percentage points, the Knicks will have to posta win total below that of the Toronto Raptors and Golden State Warriors whocurrently hold the 8th and 7th position in this summers draft.

A quick look at the reaming schedule of the teamsthe Knicks must surpass in this late season version of Limbo reveals thatKnicks fans rooting for a more favorable lottery spot will have to do someheavy rooting against the Knicks and rooting for some strong finishes for the 4other active teams currently above or below the Knicks in the limbo derby. Sothe following is a summary of the teams whose draft position relative to theKnicks could still change at this late juncture in the regular season.

NJ Nets, currently sitting at the 11thspot in this upcoming draft are currently two full games above the Knicks andmerely need to get one win to secure a playoff spot above that of the Knicks.The Nets will have two opportunities to do so with one home game remainingagainst the Cha. Bobcats, and their road finally against the Knicks. There ofcourse is every incentive for the Nets to tank those two games but perhaps homecourt pride will push them to give their fans a final win at the Izod Center.

Milwaukee Bucks, reside at the10th spot in this upcoming years draft lottery. Like the Nets they merely needto obtain one win to lock up a position in the draft lottery above that of theKnicks. The Bucks will have two chances to sure up a victory with a home gameagainst the reeling Orlando Magic who have lost two in a row, and a road gameagainst the Indiana Pacers. Like the Nets the Bucks will have every incentiveto get lower on that tank job limbo pole but at worst the Bucks like the Netscan go no lower than a 3 to 4 way tie with the Knicks, Nets and Raptors. A tiebreaker will be determined by a lottery of it�s own if seeding can�t beresolved by looking at the teams Division records or Conference records.

Toronto Raptors, currently holdthe 8th spot in the shameless lotto draft limbo derby with a 30-49 record,which is � games worse than that of the Knicks. Unlike the Knicks, Nets andBucks, the Raptors have 3 games remaining and could conceivably tie theirrivals in the marathon of shame. The remaining three games for the Raptors willbe against the 76ers, the Wizards and the Bulls. The 76ers still have playoffpositioning to play for as they could slide between the 5th to 8th spot in theplayoff race but realistically would rather secure the 5th seed in the playoffagainst the Hawks rather than a matchup against Cleveland, Boston or Orlando.But because the game against the 76ers will be Toronto�s home game finallythere will be an incentive for the Raptors to give their fans a strong send-offfrom the season. The Bulls will likewise have the same incentive to continuewinning so as to avoid a playoff showdown with one of the Eastern Conference�sbig three teams. The last game for the Raptors against the Wizards is the onegame the Raptors could likely win b/c the Wizards may be attempting to limbolower than their Western Conference lotto rival the LA. Clippers.

Golden State Warriors, hold the lowestof the currently in flux lotto draft positions the Knicks might acquire.Currently at the th spot in the draft lotto limbo contest Knicks fans will haveto root for the Warriors would have to win all their remaining games, a highlyunlikely situation, and have the Knicks lose their remaining two games in orderfor both teams to meet a deadlock in their regular season record that can onlybe resolved by a flip of a coin or pre lotto,� lotto to determine the 7thlottery spot in the 2009 draft lotto. The Warriors remaining games will beagainst the Spurs at home and Suns on the road. The Spurs still have plenty toplay for this season, as they could rise in the Western Conference Playoffstandings to a spot as high as the 2nd spot in that conference�s playoffs. TheSuns on the other hand will hold the lowest lottery ticket with a locked in14th spot in the draft. But because the Suns will be playing their home finallyand perhaps be bidding adieu to the current collection of players that composedthat organizations team over the past half decade, there will be a bigincentive to win one for their fan base.
