I think a respectable effort from the Knicks. Pistons were a better team. The Knicks didn't give it away.

Notice we are playing better the last few games and Eddy is averaging 20 and is a beast down low in those games. As much as I hated his work ethic, I always said Curry was one of the most important parts of this team.

If he can be this type of beast down low consistently, the Knicks will constantly be competitive. Garaunteed points or fouls every time down the court.

Not a fan of him, but this is the best stretch Eddy's put up as Knick.

I'm not a fan of him running around, catching the ball on the move, or trying to finesse his way inside. Curry, IMO is best utilized as a power player because of his size. His quickness and agility(?) is best utilized as a part time weapon. This is what happens when you slow Eddy down and make the defenders defend his brute strength. Those quick moves made him draw fouls. His slower power moves make it much more difficult for the defender to draw that charge.

If he developed a baby hook from 8-10 feet out, he'd be almost unstoppable on offense.

it would be stupid not to acknowledge curry's improvement this season on offense.

but he's made zero strides defensively.

They're getting close to be a decent team.

Marbury ball-hogged the end of the game to get some empty stats. Man I wish there was a way to abolish him.

Free throws and perimeter defense did us in tonight. Prince had way too many open looks.

Either way, they hung tough with Detroit. We got the 'L', and it sucks that we did, but I like what I saw, and I'm beginning to warm up to Eddy now.

If you're really a fan you would take it upon yourself to do it.

I would if I lived closer to the Tri-City/State area. But in the meantime what does that make you?

The Knicks will play this team better down the road when they get their longer players back...I can see Jeffries playing better D on Prince..Lee had a tough time with Weed under the basket...

Question:

Why did Lee not play at all in the 4th? I can understand saving him for the Raptors tomorrow, but really. Not even one minute?

Curry played well again, looking beastly at tims... Jamal played under control, Q didn't have a great game, but that happens.. Balkman and lee held their own vs prince and Wallace.. Lee outplayed wallace OMO... Prince could not miss, but when balkman guarded he and wallace, they had to work hard... the pistons hit a lot of contested shots, they beat the knicks, the knicks did not lose the game..... I feel good about where this team seems to be headed... I can see a sense of purpose with these guys....

If we had a true PG, we would be dangerous..

Technically we have one, but there's 4 other guards ahead of him in the rotation so he never plays.

No matter how you break this team down and the reasons for the losses, everything usually gets back to Marbury.
