With 20 games remaining the New York Knicks are 5½ behind games the Atlanta Hawks (who are 1-9 in their last 10 games) for the 8th spot in the east.

10 of these remaining 20 games are against teams under .500:

Utah (x2)
Cleveland (x2)
Philadelphia (x2)
Boston
Milwaukee
Los Angeles Lakers
Sacramento

Of the other 10 games only 4 of them are against teams that are 10 or more games over .500:

Indiana
Phoenix
Golden State
Miami

The rest are against mediocre eastern conference teams:

Brooklyn (x2)
Washington
Toronto (x2)
Chicago

Can the Knicks still make the playoffs? Can they get consistent play from Smith & Felton and increased production from Stat as a starter? Will it be enough? Will Mike Woodson figure out how to draw up an offensive play? Will Felton's estranged wife turn in his stash of illegal chocolate from Cuba to the police? Will Monica sit courtside to watch Shannon Brown play?

We need answers!
