Quote from well known personality who led their high school team to a state championship.“As a captain, I played furiously. I drew a lot of fouls, but I brought everything I had to every practice and to every game. I left everything on the court because I simply wanted the team to win”
Sweet. Need a soft schedule to get on an early roll. No way the Knicks (even with Amar'e) are a playoff team.
The Knicks have a better chance then the Raptors to make the playoffs and I think they can do it. Come to think of it they will probably inherit the Raptors record last season (40-42) while the Raptors will probably inherit the Knicks record last season (29-53).
Honestly with the way the Raptor squad is currently build, any opponant we are facing will either kick our ass or its tooth & nail fight to the finish, any schedule will not be soft but rather hard vs harder.
The Knicks potential rotation:
C - Amare Stoudemire
PF - Danilo Gallinari
SF - Wilson Chandler
SG - Kelenna Azubuike
PG - Raymond Felton
6. Ronny Turiaf
7. Anthony Randolph
8. Toney Douglas
9. Bill Walker
That's enough to beat the Raptors. I wouldn't call opening night a soft match up.
Note that I put a question mark after the thread title.
Reason
Tweet says that it is the Knicks opening night game not that is the Raptors. Maybe the Raptors open on the 26th? We will know for sure tomorrow.

Hmmmm... Would the league give the Raptors a back to back to start the season? I think so...
Turiaf will start at Center and Amare at PF from what I read. Currently NY only has 10 players under contract (who knows what's going on w/ knick center Eddie Curry) so they should add some more potential rotation players before trainning camp. As of now though its looks like this to me:
C Turiaf
PF Stoudemire
SF Gallinari
SG Azubuike
PG Felton
C Curry (media reports say he will not play for NY ala Marbury- time will tell)
PF/C Randolph
SF Walker
SG/SF Chandler
SG/PG Douglas
Hahaha, I highly doubt Randolph isn't starting. He will be far and away the best player on that team next year and for years to come. He is the PF Bargs has to worry about for a dark horse all star birth. The knicks have a great shot at making the playoffs, it really comes down to hard Amare tries. I see them hovering around .500 at worst, but for opening night in Toronto gives the raptors a shot for a fleeting moment to be an above.500 team.
I heard its Heat vs Cavs December 25th.
awww I love the Randolph fanatics. Never forget Summer League.
I actually think we can steal the first game against the Knicks. By about 4 points, ha. They are as bad a defensive team as we are. Amare and Bargnani both will have a chance to go for 35 on each other. The guards match up fairly even as well. It's gunna be close.
P.S. Boston vs. Miami for Christmas anyone? And hopefully Miami faces LA game 1. I wanna see Miami crumble from the get go.
I heard Miami in Boston opening night.
