Need to change the starting lineup.

PG-Douglas
SG-Mayor
SF-Gallo
PF-Al
C-DLee

Bench-Darko, Nate, Fishlips

Duhon needs to be shot. He looked so out of shape.

Well, this certain blew.

Darko looked pretty good out there at least.

Chandler looked good in the 2nd half but he needs to take it to the basket a lot more.

Chucking leading to easy buckets for the opposition is gonna be a common thing this season again from the looks of it.

Gallo had 22 pts. on 7-14 from the field, 7-13 from 3. That's just not good basketball. That's Jason Kapono/Steve Novak stuff. I hated the way he played tonight -- Yeah he had 22 pts., but anyone that thought he played well tonight, think again...This guy's just not playing with any versatility to him at all. I defended this guy up the ying-yang but I honestly don't know if I can do it anymore.

Darko's a good pickup.
Gallo and Chandler need to take control of the game.

Al/Nate/DLee do what they usually do, I guess.

Jeffries and Duhon need to never touch a basketball ever again.

That was ridiculous. No effort or heart, and its only the season opener. We are going to get burned bad all season because we chuck threes and switch everything on D. Oh how i miss ward, childs, starks, sprewell, etc fighting through screens.

On a side note I wonder how many of the Knick players knew this their only trip down to south beach. I bet captain du-du knew about it.

Wait, of all the people to knock today (and trust me, there are plenty), you're knocking GALLO?

Trautwig and Clyde both commented on Jordan Hill. Why is he laughing? You can't do that. "If I did that Willis Reed would have smacked me."

Seriously...this kid is a JOKE.

Someone DOES need to smack him.

What was up with all the empty seats tonight btw? Bad support for that team tonight by it's fan base.... Opening night, Timmy Hardaway's number going to the rafters, the rival Knicks are in town, Dwayne Wade's one of the biggest stars in the game....Really sad...What's going on down there? What's it, thanks for the '06 championship against Dallas and that's it???? Terrible job by their fans tonight. That place was a ghost town...

I have to disagree. Gallo looked good at the spot the Coach Pringles put him. When they start featuring him then we will see what he can really do. I was waiting for MDA to call a post up for Gallo when Cook was guarding him.

Yup. He's the first one I'm looking to knock --- I don't like the game he played tonight at all. NOT AT ALL. What else is this guy gonna give us? What else is he gonna be able to do when those shot aren't falling? 13 3s for one guy is rediculous anyway. Come on man - certain teams don't take that amount in a whole game...

Not sure if TD is ready, but I hate Duhon.

I like it.

I'm not upset about getting spanked tonight, I told you guys we were losing.

Chandler and Gallinari having good games was the more realistic goal.

I am ready to give Landry a shot in the rotation.

I really blame Duhon with the loss. You are the PG, you better get your troops working.

Dude that's over 50%, very efficient. Gallo had a very good game tonight.

Here's the difference between Gallo and Hill --- Hill showed me last year at Arizona that he has a complete big man's game. You'll never here me say Jordan Hill's "raw." That's the last word I'd ever use to describe this guy...6'10", quick, rebounder, post player, solid mid-range game. All you Hill haters can say whatever you want - this guy has COMPLETE game type skills for a young big man. All he needs to do is development it and fine tune it at this level now.

All Gallo does, on the other hand, is shoot 3s. That's it. If he does something else that I'm missing please let me know... severly limited rebound potential, he doesn't go to the hole, and despite the rave reviews about his defense, he ain't defending anyone in the NBA - smaller guys, guys his size...Nobody..

Between Hill and Gallo, I'm much more worried about Gallinari right now.

I wish we could worry about 50% from the field from the rest of the team.
