Woody is gonna show Danphoney how to communicate with this NY KNICK TEAM to get the most out of them.

Loving the adjustment.

JAMES DOLAN on Isiah : He's a good friend of mine and of the organization and I will continue to solicit his views. He will always have strong ties to me and the team.

TKF on Melo ::....he is a punk, a jerk, a self absorbed out of shape, self aggrandizing, unprofessional, volume chucking coach killing playoff loser!!

Eh, Knicks have gotten their fair share of favorable calls this season. It is all good. Game is close and Melo has not even really got it going yet. This is a winnable game against a Laker team that is at full strength.


I'm well aware of that, and yes I never said every single call was bad, but c'mon it's getting obvious. They seem to have it in for Melo.
How much do you want to bet LeBron would at "best" have 1 foul in the same situations?

LeBron is a substantially better defender then Melo and generally does not pick up silly fouls. Melo got a hooking foul that was a legit call. He got called for a foul reaching in when Kobe was driving past maybe JR and that was a legit call. Melo got a foul called on him attempting to front Artest which was questionable. I don't think the refs have it in for Melo at all.

I don't think that he gets too many called on him, he just doesn't get enough called for him

It seems there are games where he gets no calls then there are games where he gets plenty of calls. This particular game he is shooting a lot of jumpers so not a lot of contact being created by Melo thus far. Melo had one drive in the first half where I thought they did not call the foul.

see how he is using the screens to get his looks? this is how he gets it going.
knicks win 38-43 games in 16-17. rose MUST shoot no more than 14 shots per game, defer to kp6 + melo, and have a usage rate of less than 25%

His hands has been great all year, I think he spent to much time with his family and friends, he doesn't seem to be focused at all in such a big game.

Danphoney's halftime speech has always been a bummer , even when he coached the knicks.

Woodson's halftime speech has been superb this yr for the knicks.

Melo has only 1 more shot to get to DK's magic max number for him

I hope he makes it a good one

here's the difference: the first couple of makes to open the half were off staggered screens-- set plays to get him going-- where he is moving and catching the ball in rhythm. same with that pass from kidd-- he is moving and catching in rhythm. these are the threes he should be taking-- off of feeds. they were all "good" shots where HE isn't making the decision to shoot!
