So when I was talking about how bad our D was but others said we were better what do you think now?

It has to be addressed plain and simple.

If we don't have the current personnel then our GM needs to find players to help. Either through a trade, FA, or NBDL.

If we do have adequate defenders then our coach must do a better job at COACHING.

If it's a matter of the players being tired then the system's pace must be slowed down.

This looks like the old Knicks and has the past couple of games.

So, if this 23 point deficit remains, and so far the Knicks are doing everything they can to make it happen, that would make us 11-16.

Back in the lottery hunt! Yay



Pretty much where we were going to be no matter what happened this year.

Anyways, look at the next 4 games, we should win 2 of them. No excuse. Wolves-Nuggz-Cats-Pacers. Could win 3....if they remember what it was like to play hard and like a team. Something they seemed to have been content to leave on the Lakers' court.

Harrington should have given up that ball right there. He is forcing it.

Did you hear the stat? We're 4th in the league in FT% but 29th in FTA.

That's going to happen when your offense is based off of the extra-pass-for-jumpshot system. Not much you can do. The system isn't based on driving to dunk every time down the court - or half court post ups - the things that foul attempts are made of.

This blows I'm moving on to post 421.
If you are still following the team and reading sites like this, there is nothing, short of your own demise, that is going to throw you off this train.

I hate it that a Boston team has such an easy way against a NY team, but the Knicks have just quitted so, what else can happen?

Not that Im surprised its such a bad game.

Nice little push here...but where was the effort before? Situations like this if they miss 1 shot and the C's hit a big one - they fold again. Yuck.

Anyways, anyone like how Kelly Tripuca does as an announcer? I think he's a breath of fresh air. He teaches you the game like Clyde - just without the color commentary. He's a welcome addition.

Breen meanwhile takes his objective attitude way too far in favor of the opposition. Marv was objective but only when the other team was doing well. Breen will go out of his way to build up the opposing team's effort... it grinds my nerves at times.

Kelly is a good balance for it though. Clyde sometimes lets Breen ramble on. Kelly won't.

...and they cut it to 8.

Where was the effort early on? That's frustrating.

Oh well, this game still doesn't have a look like they can win.

Still, not going down 13-3 to open the game might have said different.
