Evenin', friends. The Knicks are back home tonight, with a tough opponent and a late start on the schedule. The Blazers, who've already thumped the Knicks once this season and who have a very FARTDOG-friendly offense with Damian Lillard feeding LaMarcus Aldridge and a bunch of shooters. The Knicks will start their same two-point-guard lineup, but will still not have Kenyon Martin. Not for a while, probably:
Kenyon Martin's in a walking boot and says he'll more than likely be out through the All Star break. #Knicks

Martin: "I'll be out for a little while. Not sure how long, but probably longer than a week." Says he'd been playing thru too much pain.

...which means:
Woodson said Amare will play more with Kenyon out.

I hope the Knicks don't get thumped again (on ESPN, no less), but I'm not particularly hopeful. This is your game thread. This is Blazers Edge. Please don't post large photos, GIFs, or links to illegal streams. Go the Knicks!
