Well if we actually played any defense it would come down a bit.

very good point. its easy to shoot for a good percentage when the defense doesnt pressure you

The sad thing is the Hawks are probably the most offensively challenged team in the league.


Exact opposite. They light it up with Korver, Horfod, Smith & Teague

Now if we could just concentrate on that little thing called DEFENSE

Are there any true two-way players on this team?
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%

JR never passes to Amare on the pick n roll NEVER. Terrible IQ. Wish the coach would teach him pick n roll

The knicks playing team defense 90% mental and 10% physical

yeah, last night it was the 76ers, couple nights ago the same was said about the Hornets....some people just need to give it a rest with overreacting.
I'm far from happy with our D at the moment, but calling every team we hate "the worst offensive team" when they score is just pointless.

Really poor defensive effort tonight. Exact opposite of the Boston game, in which the O struggled, but the D was solid.

We should be crushing this team but our defensive intensity is not there.

They have no one that can put he ball on the floor - except Teague. Korver is hot and cold, Horford and Smith are both good but cannot create. If we could just defend Teague properly they would look completely ordinary on offense and def not shoot 60%

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

Melo is on a n absolute tear right now keeping us in it and you feel the need get on your soap-box and spew your agenda-based nonsense about how much you hate Melo? In this game thread during this game? We heard you the first time you started posting about how much you hate Melo. Why keep repeating the obvious? What else you got?

Hate melo? How easy for you to say. The dude does not play well on the uphill side of the court when things are going well for him personally on the downhill side. He is an undedicated defender and that I cannot abide.

Has Melo sat in the 2nd half at all?
Knicksfan: Hypocrite league that fines players after the game for flopping but in the game and with obvious flopping they call the fouls.
