Let jr drive and work off the ball to get open shots and that's it! if he dose anything else you bench him...Riley was great at getting players to just play to their strengths . Brags should only work pick and pops free throw line extended.. If you see him try and post up bench him ... Chandler should only rebound and put back dunks.. If chandler tries anything else on offense bench him... Melo has free range ... This team would be above 500 if woody would only let the players play to there strengths... And it starts in practice!

The answer to any Woodson thread is fire him. He used to be a good coach. This year he lost it. Lat year was truly just luck like most experts were saying. They had a shot to win it all and they blew it by losing to an inferior pacers team. He refused to pay Copeland and it hurt the team. He lived and dies with Melo ball no matter what. Undersized team with big men on the bench that go unused. The signs were on the wall after the pacers exposed us. Yet we chose to make jr Smith a franchise player and refused to add big men or significantly improve the point guard.

I agree with fitz and said the same thing many times. He is best off the ball coming of screens. He has a slow first step but the step and separation he gains coming off screens would make up for that. He should be used like Ridick and Korver with the occasional wing pnr. I'm not sure of his numbers this actually a are but I bet his catch n shoot #s are imbing as the season progresses. he was actually a highly efficient shooter in Denver.

We all know this, so who will bring up the ball??

That's what Beno and Murry is for. I don't like Beno but I like JR with the ball even less. If used in this role his motion could actually create better offense if his shooting goes back up like it was before of catch and shoots.

JR is a better option handling the ball than Beno..Beno missed Chandler on three consecutive rolls on XMas day..Pointed out by Hubie Brown..It continued in the games after..He isn't even looking up at times when he is dribbling..It's not a long term solution, but it might be the way to roll until Prigs and Felton gets back..

I totally agree. Smith doe snot look too bad when coming off screens ans driving to the hoop. He looks AWFUl when trying to dribble and creating off the dribble. He needs to play with his limits.

Bargs can make that foul line level shot all day long. They should run that play for him 5 times a quarter. That's it.

Chandler, pick and roll dunk. That's all.

Stat - low post guy.

It's really simple.

NOt really because Bargs actually goes through stretches where he misses those open shots and everything else.

The Chandler pnR can be taken away

Stat - against better teams enters a blackhole absorbing everything but the ball which usually gets spit out into the opponents hands in a TO.

I get what you are saying though... Know your role.

Right, I am saying that is all they can do. I am not saying it will work everytime, LOL! Do the things you can do and try to perfect that. Tim Duncan can shoot a bank shot. Everyone knows he is going to do it but he has perfected it so much that it works for him still after 15 years! Play within your skill set. They go outside their skill set and it just compounds their problems.

I think Chandler is probably the exception. He has skills that he just do not use enough. He has started this season to dust them off but he has always had a good jumper and should be able to one dribble drive to the basket from the elbow. What he should not do is post up. He looks horrible just awful. He is too athletic to look so awful but it is what it is.

Offense is only one half of the game. Mike Woodson does not have well-rounded basketball players. Anyone chirping about what an idiot he has become in seven months only needs to look at the roster with an honest appraisal. On defense.

Bargnani is a less than average defender ... who does not rebound at all.

Amare's knees are so shot he has no lateral quickness. He is a sieve on defense. See above.

Tyson Chandler is tall enough to get in the way. During the playoffs, Roy Hibbert used him like a Labrador retriever uses a playtoy.

JR Smith, for all his physical gifts, should be a leader in steals. He is not.

There is no interior, defensive, depth whatsoever.

Pat Riley preached defense. Show time was just a marketing tag.

You need intelligent basketball players to run any offense.

Where is our dominant point guard?

The games are not played on paper

Fitzfarm - This team would be above 500 if woody would only let the players play to there strengths... And it starts in practice!

Really?

Cool. Lets talk strength.

Name one position where the Knicks have a player capable of asserting his will on any matchup?

This ain't shadow ball.

EnySpree - three playoffs questions

1. Was Mike Woodson the reason for Roy Hibbert dominating Tyson Chandler?

2. Was Mike Woodson the reason Lance Stephenson ran wild opinion the open court?

3. Why did Jason Kidd shoot 13 per cent during the playoffs?

Please cut and paste your responses.

Sincerely, The Answer Man

Defense is motivation and hustle we definitely have the talent to be a great defense like we showed early last season. The coach has to get the players to play to there strengths on defense as well. For example Brags is a pretty darn good on the ball defender why would you put him on a player that's going to be involved with switching and off the ball movement.. Quite frankly if I was coach and saw the switching and double teaming at the rate the Knicks are doing it ... That's a lack of hustle and it didn't matter if it was magic Johnson or Chris Dudley if you didn't hustle on defense you got benched... Hopefully Woodson dose that with udrith and installs Murray into the starting 5... Murray shump and chandler with thjr and melo all those players are capable of playing good defense... Thjr and melo make up for the lack of offense with the other three... Also thjr just needs more time on the floor to be a good defender.. The athletic ability is their.

Say What?

fitzfarm - we definitely have the talent to be a great defense like we showed early last season

Based on what exactly?

The athletic ability is their.

(bootleg alert) "Our All Star/Olympian is showing signs of wear and tear. All our forwards are on a pitch count. Stoudemire, Artest and Martin are relics of another era. Father time laughs at the standard prognosis of 4-6 weeks recovery. There is no recovery from major/minor arthroscopic, microfracture or any other surgery. Just ask Shump. Ask JRSmith. There is only the adjustment to not having physical gifts to lean on with a hand in your face."

Please describe the athletic ability in the Knicks frontcourt that allows them to dominate defensively?
