At least there's hope for the future

Pretty decent win for the Knicks last night over the Bulls. Unlike, say, every loss they've had over the last few years, they actually played best in the 4th quarter and that was the key to their victory.

Since their 0-5 start, they've gone 5-4,which is pretty respectable considering how this team started. They're still not even up to .400 yet, but with a few breaks and continued effort, they may be a sleeper to sneak into the playoffs.

Personally, I'd prefer they NOT make the playoffs, get another lottery pick and start shedding some of their excess baggage (Rose, Taylor, Hardaway). They also need to trade Marbury. He's cursed, no doubt about it. Every team he's played on has improved once he left. Now it's the Knicks turn.
