at Lebron March 15th: LOSS Knicks get no wins from the Cavs this year. Streak over at five.
vs Nets March 18th: Win. I will be hung over and in the house for this game the day after St. Patricks day . Hopefully the Knicks play well for the homecoming after the long road trip.
vs Kings March 20th: Win. The Maloof brothers treated the team to Ricks Cabaret the previous night and they are too hung over from Russian stripper sex to play well.
