Well, another game we could've won but came up short at the end. Its hard to be down on them because they played a better game and they also are so shorthanded. But that second factor is really pissing me off. How can we have so many players not playing? I know the injured but many others have just been horrible signings and need to go now! This is such a sad thing and its freaking irresponsible from management to not do anything to help the guys playing.

Im all for salary cap reduction, but as I see this players work their ***es off to compete I can't believe Walsh allowed the Clipper trade to happen without some compensation. Ahh, this was a great effort from the Knicks and tonight they lost it because they had no player to back them up. What's the freaking point in saying they still want to compete and make the playoffs if they don't do the moves necessary to make it happen.

Its not 2010, its 2008 so as of now I say F U! This team works so hard and can't get a break. Our MVP has been Duhon and the guy gets no breathing break. Im so angry right now.

Duhon is great

Duhon is the leader of this team. He is much better player than I ever gave him credit for.

Yes, he needs help. The team is really missing N8 right now. Also Cutino.

Once this team gets healthy and gets some depth,they can be a force in the East. If they ever sneak in as a 7 or 8, the 1 or 2 will not be happy playing them.

Yea, Nate's energy was definitely missed. Only thing I can think positive about this bare bones rotation is that everyone that doesn't end up injured is getting some hardcore conditioning.

This game makes me want to keep my eye on Portland, they look like a contender for the next few years out there in the West.

Yeah, we missed Nate tonight, but we also need a real backup point guard. Knicks can't ask for more out of Duhon who keeps playing great while still hurt. He plays so many minutes, works so hard and doesn't give up. They need to do something because this is ridiculous asking so much out of this hurt players. Q-Rich is obviously not 100%.

Yikes, the Cavs... exactly what I was thinking. More Gullivers for our Lilliputians.

I don't understand what is going on w/ Cuttino. Yeah I know there's a heart issue, but this guy was playing and playing reasonably well all season. How serious can he be? He's had this issue for 8 years without a hiccup.

i'd wager to guess that just about every team in the NBA has 1 or 2 players who are currently logging big minutes while nursing some kind of nagging injuries... but i agree w/u it's alot to ask these guys to keep playing a 7 man rotation (more like a 6 man rotation cuz i barely consider Roberson an NBA calibre player)

7.5 man rotation... how can you forget about the pull-out-the-chair post defense of Mr. Malik Rose?

I love the way they're trying and think they'll close out more games when they get Nate and others back.

they need nate and jefferies, then they'll have enough warm bodies. duhon and lee looked out of gas at the end.

also, some of the non-calls at the hoop were ridiculous. pryzbila got away with murder several times.

Things I took the game since I as there alone tonight:

-Jerome James warms up by shooting 3's and nothing else.
-Roberson isn't THAT bad but we need Mobley or someone that can can play defense.
-Defense sucks ass, especially in the post.
-David Lee just scores off Duhon passes.
-Mike D'Antoni made a terrible move taking out a hot Tim Thomas in the 2nd quarter for Malik Rose.
-Knicks lost with terrible 4th quarter execution, allowing Portland to go on a 19-5 run in the first 6 minutes.
-Shotblocking is not overrated.

Lack of depth hurt the most..

Roberson running point, slowed the game down and we lost a 10 point lead. He can't run point at all.

Malik comming in the game, is a mistake, period.

Q, is giving us crap at the SG spot..

Blazers bench hurt us.. we are just think right now..

i agree. i came away from this game thinking we need a guy like pryzbila and that fernandez and rodriguez would be the perfect backcourt for this team.
