Key Matchups
  vs
This is always a fun matchup to watch.  Although both are listed as starting, I expect both to play 24 minutes or less. 

vs
Kevin Garnett vs Tyson Chandler
KG vs anyone is a fun matchup to watch.  As with Pierce and Melo, I don't expect either player to be on the floor for big minutes. 

Things to Watch
1.  How are the new guys playing
2.  How is Sully playing against bigger NBA competition
3.  Is the pick and roll defense improving
4.  Who plays back up point?

It is preseason but the Knicks didn't look to shabby when I saw them, then again they were playing the Wizards

Good test against solid NBA talent

I really hope (believe) that Doc is starting JET as a way to get him early time with the starters so they can have continuity for 4th period play just during the pre-season... if JET is going to start, permanently, I HATE IT! I just won't accept it. Now, JET had on the green starter jersey today but I heard him talking about the bench and cheering them on today too. I think he is so important for the bench leader role... G8 will be huge for the bench but he isn't a leader like JET, this will be his first full season there while it's second nature to JET! Don't do it Doc, don't do it!!

  • We may as well put Tyrion in at center.
Literally LOL'ed at the Rasheed Wallace status! TP!

I would like to see Stoudemire play, though. I want to see Sully match up with him.

I like Marcus Smart

It'll be on NBALP, is there a free trial going on right now for league pass?

I am getting it but I haven't ordered it yet

I had the chance to see Knicks play the Wizards in DC.

They were pretty entertaining to watch with melo, kidd, novak, smith and chandler on the court.

Once they go in though, it's like a bunch of headless chickens.

I wish they'd show today's game on NBATV :( anyone know of a stream?

I think our guys are prepared a ton better than last seasons first adventure against the Knicks.

It will probably be up in time for the regular season. Last year they had the first two weeks for free but I bet that had something to do with the shortened season.

I have DirecTV and have an auto-renewal every year and they automatically renew it for me as soon as it is available.  I checked the schedule and it's on ch 751.  I watched part of the OKC game last night on LP.  I'm not sure about any other carrier. I do know that when I used to get LP on Comcast they never used to carry preseason.
