(some highlights)

"Carmelo is supposed to play defense... everybody is.. it's a team effort."

"I've admired the style of play of these guys from afar. Indiana plays hard defensively... we're playing from something guys.. we are playing to win our division and gain homecourt... we got 4 games in 7 days and have a lot of work"

"We preached taking care of the basketball from the beginning of camp"

That's his job, I expect that from him all season" - on Raymond Felton

This is the first time I am saying this.

I am happy we kept Woody and did not sign PJax!

There - said it!

PJAX is an all-time coach BUT he is also a whiner/petty when things dont go his way. Im happy with Woody

Zero.

The Answer Man feels better that Raymond Felton had 8 assists and zero turnovers

“Raymond has been everything and more for our ball club. We’re still trying to learn one another, but the fact that he’s the point guard and he’s asked to lead our ball club, he’s been great." - Mike Woodson

Kidd has been excellent!

Here is an interesting nugget about how good this team(starters) is playing:

The final point is the most important. The Knicks’ starting lineup (Raymond Felton, Jason Kidd, Ronnie Brewer, Carmelo Anthony, Tyson Chandler) was on the court together for 15 minutes today (tip-off until 8:48 of the first quarter; 5:39 of the second quarter until halftime; start of the third quarter until 5:58 of the third quarter). In those 15 minutes, each team had 27 possessions on which the Knicks scored 40 points (1.48 per possession) and the Pacers scored 24 (0.89 per possession). This is astonishingly good but basically an exaggeration of what they’ve done all year so far (1.18 per possession, 0.90 allowed per possession coming into today). That’s not simply great, it’s cartoonish. It’s happened against champions and also-rans, contenders and minnows. It’s happened against big teams and small. It’s happened at home and on the road.

It’s real.

I was more than happy when we locked up Woody. He's off to the best HC start in Knicks history!

I just love his attitude. All are accountable, due your job and I'm not catering to anyone. Play at your best when you're called upon.

Now that is a TEAM!

"Everybody was like still kind of jet-lagged and just exhausted. But we found a way. It does show a lot about this team. We have a lot of fight in us."

- Raymond Felton

None of the players that Raymond Felton is running with were here when he left. Should be fun to watch him get acquainted.

How can you be exhausted 8 games into the season?

Tough back to back games and an early morning flight will do it.

Nah....we're fine. I don't think many realize the physical and mental drain these games have on players.

"You don't get to be old bein' no fool"

Marcus Camby is gathering himself into game shape. Somewhere, Iman Shumpert is looking at his knee and thinking out loud...

"To be this season or to be next season?"

(that is the question)
