yo, pardon self.

WE AIN'T NOWHERE WITH THIS BUM CHOKER IN CARMELO. GIVE ME STARKS'S 2-21 ANY DAY OVER THIS LACKLUSTER CLUSTEREFF.

My opinion. I think Melo is the best scorer in the game. he makes it look soooo easy.

It's a weird, but GOOD feeling... It's been a helluva long time (since 03-04 if I heard correctly) since we had a winning record for the season.

I think we can get used to this... KNICKS, baby!

That's the last time we made the playoffs, the year we traded for Marbury. Last time we finished over .500 was 2000-01. For some perspective on how long ago that was, we lost in the playoffs to a Raptors team led by Vince Carter and TMac.

Now the joy of my world is in Zion How beautiful if nothing more Than to wait at Zion's door I've never been in love like this before Now let me pray to keep you from The perils that will surely come

Really? Someone find out if this guy is Dan D'Antoni.

+2 All the championship contending teams have the same option at the end. Thats why the trade was a must.

If the games come down to 1 possession then true but if not?

Get it to him anyway, if this was earlier in the season. This probably would have been a jump shot by felton or tony douglas. They never got the ball to the best scorer. I recognize Billups on that one, they played melo well, and Chauncey waited and got it to him. You ride your stars in crunch time.

They're still their just chirping a lot lower now. They're waiting for the Knicks to lose the last 2 games or lose the 1st game in the playoffs before they start squawking.

I'm just annoyed that there isn't enough recognition of the fact that even undersized this team has been winning on the road and with some decent defense in addition to some timely offense. This is going to be a dangerous team in the playoffs no matter who we play.

First winning season in a decade. As up and down as this season was - I do believe this is *ahem* "significant progress."

We beat the Pacers at MSG with the former team this year and it didn't take a clutch shot to pull out the victory and we held them comfortably under 100. I get a kick out of fans that think games are going to exclusively come down to 1 possession in the post-season

Never mind Martin about gamepicker, I added it up and it jibes, guess the total was wrong before.

oh man you miss the point. We beat alot of teams comfortably,earlier in the season what does that mean?

It's a team game, obviously if the team isnt playing well, then they won't win. But the point is, when the game is on the line in crunch time in the playoffs, the offense is usually run through the best players. It is great that we have Melo and Stat to take those shots. Boston has Pierce, Bulls have Rose, Lakers have Kobe, Heat have Wade and James, OKC has Durant, and now knicks have Melo.

They are called "closers"
We got one

One thing that concerns me is that Shawne Williams still can't hit a 3 with someone in his face. If he has problems now, the playoffs won't be any easier. I'm sure other teams have figured that out by now.

Yeah but I know Melo had this ability. He's been clutch, before being a Knick. I'm rather not talk about his clutch shooting but instead his defensive stand and how that could transcend throughout the team.

He was off this game, but he's had some good games. He'll have bad shooting nights like this, what i like is that he didn't let that affect his hustle and he played good enough D for us to get some stops. It's why he was on the floor.
