The playoffs are beginning to look out of reach for this year's Knicks squad. A hugely improved 42-19 Seattle team bested NY at the Garden 90-80 to put them seven big games back of the Atlantic Division lead with just 21 left to play. The Celtics now look to be the heavy favorites for the division crown and the East's #3 seed.
Sunday's score does not indicate the quality level of the NY/Seattle game, which was well played on both sides despite poor shooting for the Knicks. NY had 7 steals and caused 17 Seattle turnovers, thus keeping them in the game until the last few possessions. Both Tim Thomas and Stephon Marbury scored 20 points to lead the Knicks.
Next up for the Knicks: Shaq and the Miami Heat tonight. Hrm, better make that eight games back in the Atlantic. In other news, the Nets beat (up) Orlando in a scrappy Sunday contest, and Chris Webber isn't working out so well in Philly.

wow! a seven game winning streak against .400 teams that reside in the lowly east. amazing! now that they actually have to play a quality opponent they lose? watch the knicks as they almost get to the playoffs and break your heart as they will probably be one game out of the playoffs and get the 18th pick. when phoenix and san antonio get into the playoffs their picks will probably be dead last. So we'll get the 18th,31st and 32nd pick with a management that wouldn't even know what to do with a number one pick. Knicks are like the lakers of the east without the glamour and like the clippers of the east with the losing record and the fervent fans. Can't wait for the Brooklyn Nets.
Yeah Sonics!
