Horrific loss; I am totally disgusted with this team
to the point where I can't watch it anymore.

We already know Melo and Amare have given up playing defense.

And teams know that if they even hint at running a PnR, the Knicks will switch and they'll have a C guarded by Shump, Fields or TD.

WTF

The simplest picks, the knicks always switch. And it's bad. Every single time fields or shumpert ended up guarding the big and it's just retarded

I know, it's awful. I recall the first few games of the season Shump fought hard to get thru picks, no they just auto-switch, unnecessarily some times. No ****ing clue why.

Its good when Shumpert knows when to pick his moments. He did a better job of it this game, for the most part.

As much as I don;t want to give all the blame to D'Antoni, because he doesn't have it all, and as much as I want them to win now, and oh boy do I want that, I really believe this team needs a new coaching staff. Switching, for example, has been here since MDA arrived. Woodson came in with the same idea. It won't change under this staff. And thats just one of the many issues that can be attributed to coaching.

LOL at Melo and Amare going 10 for 40+.

How did he taketh? last shot was gonna be a prayer anyways.

My exact thoughts. Game would've been long over if it wasn't for Shumpert. I wanna know who's philosophy is it to switch on every play?! If its Woodson he needs to go. It's like the coaches are sabotaging the team to prove a point!

It would work if we replaced Amare and Melo with...Lamar Odom and Shaun Marion

Let's try to elevate the level of discourse in this byeetch. Please

I literally can't believe that Woodson would implement a dumb-ass switching defense. Gotta be MDA. And it absolutely sucks.

time to get rid of all of the coach's. Bring in a new staff that is not even working right now. This concept is garbage.

The schedule was a piece of cake so far. Its going to get worse

I don;t know if I should laugh or cry about that. Its scary how truth that is. We have lost so many winnable games, that when we get our act together, we might still lose a lot. Man...

Honestly I think you are right and thats why I feel he is sabotaging the defense because he is not happen Woodson was pushed on him in order to get him to change his philosophy

And thing is I remember Shump fighting over those in beginning of season and now he just easily defers to the switch. Just picking up bad habits in this scheme.

It's just mind boggling how game to game we don't do anything different offensively or defensively.

They were too busy playing Toney Douglas and letting this game get out of reach

Walker hasn't been money from 3 this year but thats no excuse to play TD as much as he has. Its like when Q was the starter when he was arguably the worst starting SG in the league. Did Bibby piss in D'Antoni's cheerios? He got 5 minutes and had one assist and one steal, give the man some PT! Davis will be playing soon so he can rest him after Davis is in the lineup. They move the ball better with Bibby on the floor as well.

Because Dolan probably has some knife at their throats if they're out of line.
