We really need to address the backup PG issue. Even if we got someone like Melo, we can't keep going with only one decent PG. TD has his moments where he looks good and then he reverts. I thought he had finally gotten the hang of things, but he's back to slowing the whole offense to a grinding halt.

Bad news Bro, they had one. Black mark for the coach

Knicks didn't even have a fast break so I don't understand why D'Antoni didn't call a timeout. Worse loss of the season

Why are you guys complaining about the time out. The Knicks had 2 good opportunities to score. Stat on the PnR and Williams from the corner. Can't ask for more than that.

Problem is when he looks good it's only cause he's hitting shots..not because he is running the offense effectively. He misses wide open teammates way too much.

Not sure if anyone noticed but we did not score once coming out of a timeout..Like does D'Antoni draw up any plays during those timeouts.

Losing to that bum ass team sucks.

Igoudala shooting pure bricks all night then gets hot in the 4th.

Also why do Chandler, Amare, and Gallo refuse to take a pull up jumper. It is either all the way to the rim all or a jumper.

Williams shot from the corner was more of an improvisation. That wasn't a set play.

Stat looked real pissed and he should be.. There's no reason why he shouldn't have gotten the ball. That's an awful loss, maybe the worst yet because they're right behind us in the standings

i thought Amare did a crappy job tonight in the 4th quarter, trying to force up shots in traffic & making bad turnovers... maybe that's why Felton didn't want to go to him.

If anything to calm the team down..they looked frazzled on that last play. Also you can draw up a play designed to get it to Stat and maybe get a foul call. Terrible coaching decision. If it was tied I understand the go with the flow tactic.

that's a good point.. those are two opportunities that they go to all game; I don't understand why they decided to stop thinking on the last possession

anyone who wants to blame this loss on Felton please watch the 4th quarter again... u will see Amare & Wilson making boneheaded charging fouls in crunchtime & the Knicks playing zero defense inside.. if not for Felton the Knicks wouldn't have even had a chance to tie this game up in the closing seconds.

Felton was actually the MVP for tonight..shame he was taken out when he gave us that 9 point lead that evaporated in 1 minute.

I could ask for a better shot

This game was about as bad a game as the Minnesotta loss. Fell apart in the 4th. No defense. Just a very disheartening loss. I guess this is who we are. An inconsistent .500 team. Time to temper expectations until we get more pieces.

I don't think he has that option. 13 out of 14 of the last games, Felton shot under 50%, yet he continued to take his shot. Sometimes I feel as though he believes that he is the 2nd option. He's not

Yeah it's not Felton's fault. I think Amar'e has been a bit off his game of late too. He's had some good performances, but overall he's looked a bit off. Chandler isn't back yet and he's been in a slump before he was injured. Overall with this team it comes down to our offense more often than not. When we hit shots, in particular 3's, we win. We haven't perfected the rest of our game enough to overcome poor offensive play. We have to execute.

I still think the Knicks are built better for the longhaul than the Sixers. I'm expecting this team to pull it together at some point the rest of the way and get separation from the Sixers again. At some point Amar'e will get on a roll and Chandler will either get his act together or we'll trade for Melo. I just see something positive happening that will get us over the hump.
