I could see it now as the Gotham City Gazzette reads in the Morning, "Knicks use COPELAND to get a W". The Knicks held off a feisty Jazz bunch that is also fighting for their Playoff Life 90-83 in one of the toughest Arenas to play in the Utah Jazz Arena called Energy Solutions Arena.

The Knicks behind efforts from "Get Shots" J.R. (20 pts), "Everybody loves Raymond of New MSG" (19 pts), and little-used PF Chris Copeland (14 pts 6 rebs) a 29-year old rookie who is trying to make a name for himself and it won't be like LINsanity but still its a story worth hearing somewhere down the road.

The Jazz are playing on fumes as they continue their horrid pace heading South with another loss at home. They get 17 points from Hayward, 12 points from Milsap, and 10 points from Big Al as they really have nothing going for them right now. Before trying ti catch the LAKEshow or #REDnation Rockets they may need to step back and try to catch themselves. It would be safe to say that the Jazz are not only playing for their Winning Time Life but for Coach Ty Corbin. I said this first it wouldn't surprise me if they went with current Jazz Assistant and Former Jazz Great in 2G Jeff Hornacek...just saying.

The Knicks are just a half game behind the 2nd seed Pacers as both teams have been playing right around the .500 mark in their last ten games. Can the Knicks get Tyson of MSG and the Bully of MSG back into the line up healthy for the stretch run? That will be the question that decides them getting a Top 4 seed in the East.
