After the D'Antoni departure, I predicted a Knicks' playoff berth.  I then re-affirmed my earlier statement.  Last year, the Knicks won 22 games and the Hawks got into the playoffs with 37 wins.  Right now, both Phoenix and New York sit at the #9-seed and D'Antoni has the Knicks half-way to Thomas' mark from last year. 

Bluntman has challenged me and we finally settled on a bet (he doesn't think they'll make it).  The bet is this: the loser must purchase a Marbury Knicks jersey and wear it to the Phoenix-Knicks home game next year.
