    Last time he had like 30+ points and seeing as Amare is a piss poor rebounder he could grab 15 boards

    I'm terrified of Scola guarding Stoudamire.

    Have Hayes or Hill guard Stat, and have Scola guard whomever is the Knick's center.
    Actually, who is the Knicks's center?

    Not worried about Stoudemire guarding Scola as much as anyone guarding Stoudemire. Granted he doesn't have Steve Nash anymore, but in 4 games against the Rockets last season, Stoudemire averaged 29.8 points on 55% shooting and 10.3 boards.

    Scola gave you 17.5 (but just 5.3 boards) -- though only the last game was in the post-Carl Landry era and he put up 30 and 8 in that one.

    two teams in the lottery equals twice the chance of landing a top 3 pick.... providing NY does not land the #1 pick. :p

    So we're playing a team that's lost 4 straight at home. Just when we need wins... we're facing a team that's going to be hungry. We'll also be another player short because of Bud. Hope we win...

    True, but I'd be happier with the Rockets in the playoffs and just one good chance at it from the Knicks pick :). I really wish the Rockets had the NYK '11 pick outright and the swap option in '12. If not Carmelo (who they probably have a good chance at), I suspect the Knicks will add someone this summer. They should be a better team in 2011-12.

    Although the knicks do have a considerable chance at getting Carmelo, you have to remember that the 2011 draft is going to be terrible talent-wise (and subsequently the 2012 draft will be strong due to withdrawls).

    Hill and Scola with double digit rebounds each. And another strong game by Lowry. Rockets win by 10.

    As long as we shut down or limit Amare, we'll be okay. I hope Gallo doesn't light us up from long range though.

    Rockets in a close game.

    I don't think the Knick's ever get hungry.
