The Knicks are going to win this game and\u00a0fatten themselves up a bit as this\u00a0soft schedule comes to\u00a0bare but\u00a0Mike D\u2019Antoni\u2019s team still is not playing well defensively and therefore can\u2019t be laying such a hefty price. The Knicks looked flat out lousy in having to come back to defeat the Nets the other night allowing Brook Lopez and Kris Humphries to control a lot of the paint and are just not very good right now.<\/p>\n<p>Since the\u00a0trade with Denver things have gone fairly rough. Yes the New Yorkers looked really good in the comeback win down in South Beach about a month ago, and I do expect some wins coming up, but there have been a lot of losses since and therefore to get a number like this is certainly worth it. JJ Hickson has been playing at a high level and guys like Baron\u00a0Davis, Ramon Sessions and Boobie Gibson are capable and worthy of a play tonight.<\/p>\n<p>15-60 is beyond dreadful\u00a0but three of those victories came against the Knicks and maybe, just maybe, there\u2019s something to that. Even if not a dozen is a ton to get and always-backdoor territory.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For more information: <\/strong>That\u2019s right, a 400,000* on UConn outright and a 300,000* On Butler.
