08:22 AM ET 12.15 | In an effort to curb uncertainty with his lineup, Flip Saunders is trying to make the call on sitting "frustrated" John Wall -- battling tendinitis in his right knee -- as early as possible. "I think it's been unfair for the preparation of our other players, staff and everybody," Saunders said. ... "I don't think, with his situation, that he's ever going to be pain free from that, so what we're going to do is monitor him. Some situations, we have to make sure we get it right," Saunders said. "We get him healthy, get him where it's manageable where he can play and play at the high level he needs to play at. No question, when he's not physically right, he can't play at the same level."

Man this would be a sad story if Wall's knee was the cause of him having a bad rookie year and a bad NBA career. But Blake griffin had a bad Knee in his rookie career and he came back like a mad man possessed, or he can be like greg Oden and be injury prone all the time, we'll just have to wait and see.

No the Curse of Greg Oden! It affected blake griffin, but he survived it, now it's wall's turn to see if he can get past this.

Sit him now and maybe he'll be eligible to be a rookie next year.

If it's indeed true they do better with Arenas at the point they got some big issues to deal with.

Your Knicks are looking damn good. I find myself rooting for them on most nights. They're a very likeable team and what can you say about the fans? Most loyal fans in sports. (Top 6 in attendance over the last 30+ years, even when the team is bad)
I like them to win tonight at home over the C's by 4.
