Game Thread: Knicks vs. Mavericks- 12/16/14

Good evening! The Knicks rematch tonight with the Mavericks, a team that took care of them a couple weeks ago. It'll be Tyson Chandler's return to the Garden, which should be interesting. Unfortunately, Raymond Felton's not ready to play, so he won't get to exact his 5-17 shooting revenge against the Knicks this season.

Here's what's up tonight:

JR still sidelined. Hardaway, Jose, Melo, acy and Amare start for Knicks.

Tip-off is at 8, weirdly, on MSG. This is your game thread. This is Mavs Moneyball, where I answered a few questions earlier today. Please don't post large photos, GIFs, or links to illegal streams in this thread. New thread after the game, recap from Joe later tonight. Go the Knicks!
