Next season's five looks like this:

 

C - Amare Stoudemire

PF - Anthony Randolph

SF - Danilo Gallinari

SG - Wilson Chandler

PG - Raymond Felton

 

Not really much of a bench (Douglas, Turiaf), but not much of a roster beyond the five, either. Still needing to sign some guys.

 

Can New York win 40+ games? Do you think they can sneak their way into the East playoffs next season?

They are definitely in the mix, the combination of the lower half of the East getting weaker and adding a 20-8 big man along with a solid starting PG will surely add at least 10 wins to their total. I'm not expecting very much of Amare, their future is bleak as long as Amare is their best player, this team reminds me a lot of the Raptors last year with Amare being the Chris Bosh of the situation. Just lot's of role player around a star who isn't really a franchise player.

No, they can't make the play-oggs but can win more than 40 games. The west is always tight. I don't see any Regular Top 8 teams going lower than the 8th spot so it's gonna be tough for the Knicks.

 

I really don't get what you're saying, what makes a "regular" top 8 team, since last year both the Bobcats and the Bucks were new to making the playoffs. I believe the Knicks can win more then 40 games and actually make the playoffs, this is the most hope I've had as a Knicks fan since I fell in love with the Knicks in '03.

Yes, they can make the playoffs. Will they? Probably not. I picture the Knicks as a 35-40 win team. I think they'll be in the race 'til the very end though.

I believe they can without winning 40 games, look at all the crappy teams in the east

 

Nets

Raptors

76ers

Pistons

Pacers

Washington

Charlotte

Cleveland

 

So all we have to do is beat 7 of these 8 teams, I think its def possible and more likely probable

I think they'll flirt with the possibility of making the playoffs but its hard to say because imo this team is one Amar'e injury away from falling out of the race. They will definitely be a fun to watch though, lots of nice young pieces.

Regular Top 8 Top 10 actually always competing for a play-off spot in the West. Those teams are too good for the Knicks. The West is to tight. They won't do it this year.
