That's not possible. We all know it's not worth trying to do anything with this group of players.
If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System

LOL we're up 7 at half, with another half to play, and you guys run in into this thread and hold hands as if a point was proven in 24 minutes. This is the same team that looked good beating the Celts and looked just as bad losing to a depleted Rockets team. Inconsistent players = Inconsistent team. Its just a theory, so dont hold me to it.

I'm responding to the post you made about the roster. I'm assuming you actually think this roster is good.
Thank you, Rick Brunson.

We all know the roster isn't good it doesn't mean they can't play like they did in first half. Do you get it yet?

They can't play every game like they did in the first half because they're playing over their heads. This team sucks. It will play bad on most nights. Do YOU get it yet? Wait a while before you start insulting D'Antoni for losing games with a 23 win team that arguably got worse in the short term.

Inconsistency has nothing to do with it. Winning this game has nothing to do with it. The fact that the team is running efficient half court sets, with the exception of that clown Nate, has played good half court defense and looks like a team that has been coached has everything to do with it. Maybe it only lasts the first half but at least you can see some development. That's all some of us ask for, not wins as it's been mistakingly stated.

No it isn't. This team is playing almost strictly half court. No AL ISO's No shooting 3's as soon as you touch it, they are attacking the rim. Totally different style of play which most said they were in capable of playing.

Who the hell is running into a thread. This is a game thread where Knick fans post about actual Knick games. Grow up or go find a 2010 thread to post in if you don't like it. Just a theory, don't hold me to it.

You guys are going overboard.

This is hardly a grind it out half court set we are playing quite quickly the majority of the possessions.
We have not seen a game long SSOL offense for weeks now we had been playing slower overall for quite some time.

Did people say they were incapable of playing or the system was incapable of being coached by D'Antoni? I think you have that confused my man.

You are right about Lee he only shoots layups and dunks. If you can see his jumper coming along then you dont watch a lot of basketball

I love how Duhon just got called for a travel on a play that Wade, LeBron, Melo, Kobe, etc - do a minimum of 5 times a game. The hop step: Illegal if you're on a crappy team.

I understand you have a shrine of David Lee in your room. I can't take someone with that type of bias seriously.
