I'd wish Knicks-SL&ENT the best of luck, but I've seen what lies at the end of the ethereal abyss and it's Derrick Trilliams

By vire Go To PostI think I enjoy offseason SLAENT more than the regular season.
Just for the sheer stupidity.
Make a prediction bruh, are yall winning 60 games or are you guys sweeping the cavs in the second round?
41 wins is the Knicks absolute ceiling. Like if everything went right. Some of y'all getting wreakless though, I would get in on some of these bets and embarass people but I'm out that game...
By vire Go To PostI think I enjoy offseason SLAENT more than the regular season.Where your prediction at tho

I had no idea that Sharp was following me on Twitter for like two months and I had no idea who the egg account that sometimes tweeted at me was, that's a bad look on my part.

By DY_nasty Go To PostWhere your prediction at thoI'm all for incredibly stupid predictions, but I'm going to be somewhat reasonable this year I think...
51 Wins
ECF appearance, L to the Cavs.
Only reason I say we are going to lose in the ECF is because we are bound to get some sort of fuckin terrible injury to one of our key starting five and it just torches our whole season. I'm being realistic here, I just can't envision a perfectly healthy Dwyane, Deng, Bosh and Dragic in the Playoffs. If we are healthy, Lebron is going to be pooping his big boy pants.
By Moris Go To PostRuss nooooooooooThis is what happens when Cedric Ceballos isn't there to guide the youth
By Moris Go To PostRuss nooooooooooWhat? She's cute and age appropriate for him.
I can't call the knicks this year. I mean the defense should be good in the interior but I expect them to still suck defending against the 3. Grant could realistically be starting full time by january. KP is a damn Unicorn. Afflalo & D Will are going to be playing for money + a healthy Melo.
Like I understand why someone would say 41 wins, but shit all of that has to go right with either Afflalo or D. Will or one of the rooks stepping their game up to keep teams from doubling Melo.

Yeah it's hard to judge, anyone making a prediction based on last year's team is being foolish. It's a completely different group. Melo is the only one on the roster that's played more than half a season as a Knick. I don't think they have enough scoring but we'll see. High 30's is my guess.
By Sharp Go To PostLike, can someone lay out how the Knicks and (particularly) Hornets win all these games? What do their schedules look like? Aren't there a fair number of near-automatic losses in the mix? What percentage of the remaining games do they have to win?Not just that, but part of the reason the East has been historically bad is because teams like the Knicks and Bobhornets being terrible. They're the ones gathering all those Ls as cannonfodder for the West.

The sad part is that he still looks better than Francis these days.
We going to the finals.
Best starting 5 in the fucking east.
Dragic and Wade best backourt in the east. 2nd best in the league.
Wade with 65 mothafucking games played!
AND we getting KD next season.

By knux-future Go To PostOk no seriously…what is the Knicks roster looking like?
Grant/Gallo/Affalo/Melo/Lopez.
Jose/BasketballSatan/DerrickFuckinWilliams/Zingis/KyleOBrian as the bench unit.
idk that is a stretch to go from 18 to 40. I like Melo more than most people but he has to be on some MVP shit to carry that roster to 40 wins..weak East or not. This also requires Grant or Gallo to be legit starting PGs and offensive options, Affalo to not be a corpse again, and that bench unit is some shit.
I mean I hope yall do it but …ehhhh 40 may be a stretch unless Zingis is truly that dude right away.
I have to ask...if (essentially) a Knicks' D-league team lost 30 games by 6 points or less last season (this is after Melo went down), you really don't think the starters up there are capable of correcting a lot of that? I know it's fun to shit on the Knicks...but really? 40 isn't a stretch, imo. They went 52 years ago, under mediocre coaching with a lot of talent past their expiration dates.

Out of all the things listed in here, this is the most unbelievable.
truth.
By the standard used of 'best case scenario' that has Knicks with 40 wins and Hornets with 50, that puts Golden State at about 77.

By Moris Go To PostBy the standard used of 'best case scenario' that has Knicks with 40 wins and Hornets with 50, that puts Golden State at about 77.And the Lakers at about 20.
By Moris Go To PostBy the standard used of 'best case scenario' that has Knicks with 40 wins and Hornets with 50, that puts Golden State at about 77.Best case scenario is Kemba becoming an all-star or something. Knicks only won the games they did or kept it close because people didn't even take them seriously.
By K@do Go To Postif you told me the last two pages wasn't from realGM, i'd tell you good sir you're a straight liar.Nah, this is what RealGM is saying:
Is she a 64 wins coach? If not, then he is not better than coach Fisher's Knicks could be a 63 wins season
By Zeus Ex Machina Go To Postidk last time you were so sure the knicks would suck you got stuck with a naked Amare avi…….
They still sucked that year, it just took longer than usual.
By masud Go To PostAnd the Lakers at about 20.
I wish.
By DY_nasty Go To PostI'm sorry, did someone find the dragonballs and wish Deng back to life during the off-season?AND Winslow absorbs Genkai's energy and becomes Harden with defense.
By DY_nasty Go To PostBest case scenario is Kemba becoming an all-star or something. Knicks only won the games they did or kept it close because people didn't even take them seriously.People take them seriously now? Even the Knicks didn't take themselves seriously half the year outside of the D leaguers trying to get paid... and they did! Thomas/Amundson/Galloway got that paper now. SECOND OPTION Afflalo wants money too this year!
If Jason Kidd can help Knicks get to 54 wins, I don't think the bevy of solid, non "give no fucks" players (outside of Trilliams) could help them reach .500*.
* = Best case scenario
Not sold on the Heat. All their guys had good statistical seasons last year and they still blew. They added some decent depth and of course are getting 40 more games of Bosh and Dragic, but not making the playoffs in the East to contention is a stretch. I wouldn't be surprised if they're sitting at .500 by the trade deadline.
supposedly the raptors jersey leaked, with others.
I think it looks pretty good, better revamp than the logo that's for sure.
I feel like we rely on black too much.. reminds me of the Trailblazers.
The Knicks won 17 games last year...lots of close losses and injuries yeah but they added a raw 7'3 rookie, a guy who fell of on the low in Affalo (he also has to prove that he is more than a guy who gets his on shit teams), and a solid but unspectacular big in Robin Lopez. 23 extra wins just seems a bit much....especially when you add in other teams in the East leveling up too. Hell outside of our garbage asses I think every team in the East got better even if just marginally.
But perhaps I am not taking the Just Lost Barganni's loser aura buff......
If the Knicks hit 40 wins, Melo needs to be MVP or Kristaps is the ROTY

I think Boston and NJ take big ass steps back, Chicago comes on late, Indy underwhelms, and Atlanta falls back to Earth a bit.
Detroit and Milwaukee though. Hard to guess on either of those teams.

Knicks with more wins than the Hornets
Bill Plaschke betting the Lakers win more than the Jazz
crazy bets today man
Bill Plaschke betting the Lakers win more than the Jazz
crazy bets today man
Boston didn't lose anyone off of a team that came on late.
The Nets....well..maybe Deron was that much of a cancer because idk.
The Bulls will actually not be dead by the playoffs which is a win in their own right.
Indy may finally be able to run an actual offense without Hibbert emoing it up in the post.
The Hawks will miss Carroll and were exposed a bit late in the year but they still will be a solid team with that offense.
The Bucks are an enigma. Part of me wants them to fail if only because all the Bucks fans I know are the smugest asswhipes out there. But this is probably the year Giannis explodes...Monroe is a question mark as he is nice offensively but he and Parker is some shit defensively..spacing will be an issue imo.
The Heat are weird too as they are relying on a lot of frail bodies...and minds. Wade knees take their annual vacation and Whiteside gets sent to jail at the same time and their season peters out real quick. Hope Bosh comes back healthy tho.
Detroit is some idk shit. Is Ersan in a contact year? If so, he and Drummond will be a great pair. Idk wtf is their backcourt situation tho...Jennings kinda has to be moved ASAP (yo Hinkie..make a call you shit).
The Hornets are free from Lance and Hendo pull up fadeaways and Lin cannot be worse than Brian fuckin Roberts...but Kemba still probably will be out there doin too much. MKG will be cryin in the car trying to defend Frank The Tank and Big Al's man. Batum was also kinda booty juice last season too if he comes to play (in a contract year no less) then they may surprise a bit.
The Magic better fuckin be good this year or they deserve some heat..they have been ass on the low and no one called them out on it. Oh yeah I'm mad. Mario brings some much needed swag and shooting...but they have a bunch of positionless guys on that roster who secretly don't fit.
The Raptors, I feel like they will be THAT team that sucks more than expected. Lou is a chucker but he was big on that team and they didn't really replace him...Grevis was a solid backup too...In fact outside of Carroll..wtf did they do. Ursai seems like he is a bad streak away from tanking.
The Wizards lost Pierce. Despite his advance age..I feel like he was big for that team who has a lot of guys who will cry in the car when shit hits the fan. Maybe this is the year Beal actually lives up to the praise he gets...and maybe Porter puts it together..
The Cavs will be good. Coasting Bron will be back
We will be dogshit. Noel will get traded for a 1st round pick in 2030. Jah will break his nipple and be out for a year or two. We will pick 3rd in next years draft and take a bigman.
The Knicks will be better (Can't be any worse) but idk where they get 40 wins from...30 is reasonable.
The Nets....well..maybe Deron was that much of a cancer because idk.

big fan of the moves the Bucks made... got that baby bulls vibe from them
think the oldest starter is 26
they got talent at every position too...
Det should be aiight too with a full year of SVG under their belt
Knux
the thing is, Frank isn't a bad defender (somehow. don't ask me how. and zeller is an above average defender too. pls it doesn't make sense it just *is*)
it really all rides on kemba - and without al doing wheelchair post moves this year, he should be able to get that space to score inside again AND with the shooting he won't be the sole person worth guarding on the perimeter this year. the spacing for the hornets was probably the worst i've ever seen for an nba team. ever. but you're like me and i'm always willing to bet on someone's contract year. we've got two in batum and jefferson - both guys will be given the opportunities too.
and ppl think i'm trippin when i say we got better at every position
like... you can't even argue otherwise wtf. especially when mo williams turned into pargo after his "i'm still good, see!" month
About the Bucks though... I want to trust them but I can't for some reason. Detroit just seems primed for immature fuckery too. New look Bulls will be interesting.

By fertygo Go To PostSo you pretty much banking on contract year Batum score Scottie Pippen number?No, I'm banking on Kemba not being top 5 in touches per game like he was or having 101 touches per game // #1 in the league by far // like he was in 2013-14. http://stats.nba.com/tracking/#!/player/possessions/?Season=2013-14&SeasonType=Regular%20Season&sort=TCH&dir=1 . Batum is arguably the best wing passer in the game behind LBJ.
Kay.
Alleviated pressure = increased efficiency
but don't tell unknown and frankman, they ain't signed on the dotted line like phaze has yet
By DY_nasty Go To PostI think Boston and NJ take big ass steps backIf Bropez does not go down we win more games than last season, willing to bet on it.
