At the game right behind the bench. Marbury just spent the entire time out encouraging Craw and trying to pump him up. Makes me wonder about Berman

Makes me more wonder about Crawford. D'Antoni losing him quick.

You're guys laugh but this game is where you need a Curry to demand double teams in the low post. This is what happens when D'Antoni tried to run his offense against teams with strong defenders who can play man to man.

Agreed. I feel as if I was wrong by thinking it was ZR that would have trouble adjusting to the new style of play...

Why doesn't Duhon get into the lane? he gives up the ball at the 3 point line. Chandler hurt.

Whats up fellas, back in town after a week on the road. This lineup change is a disaster here. What's the point of starting this?

Lee
Chandler
Marbury
Nate
Duhon

?????????????

Hey, you want to see what that lineup does, do it during a game, don't start it and throw everyone off their game.

Major problem is that the Celtics shut down the running game right off the bat and then we failed to ever establish a post game (Randolph didn't even start). We're always gonna need one or the other - when we get both working, we gonna be tough most nights...

Yep. Problem for D'Antoni is that Q and Crawford didn't give him anything as starters. Now Breen and Clyde starting to harp on why Curry is not in the game.

Doesn't feel like a Knicks season without a blowout, eh? They'll make their run eventually.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

Nice Nate and 1...

I'd like to close this game out the right way....There's still plenty of game. Moral victory if we come back and make a game of this...

Another thing, Lee will have trouble with guys like KG and Perkins too. Nobody has really address this as well.

Q has been dreadful but I think we had better options here. Crawford has at least passed the ball...and Duhon, Lee, Zach played well as a starting unit.

So you start Chandler for Q. Maybe you start Marbury for Q.

Just not a full on upheavel. Again, he said he wants to try new lineups, try it during a game, it's not that hard.

Putting Curry in isn't the answer if he's not ready to play in this system. MDA is trying to get this team to play a certain way and only the guys that are ready to perform should get major minutes. Curry will have to earn his PT. He may yet get in the game, but his reduced minutes are probably due to how he's looked in practice.

WTF with Chandler. ... Last thing in the world we need is to get him hurt in a game like this. It didn't look too bad on the replay thank God.

Kinda tired of watching our young guys get gimpy every year.

Haven't had much to look forward to these past few years and the few bright spots seem to always get injured.
