Jackson had spasms, if you had them you know how they make you into a statue. . LARRY BROWN OUTCOACHED US AGAIN , AND ALMOST WON WITH LESS TALENT. He even commented that : That's the most fun I had all year. Just because of the guys that were out there. The way they competed gave us a chance to win," Charlotte coach Larry Brown said

Kind of busy today short week lots to get done plus office party yoo hoo, just got back to the thread.

If david Lee and Al Harrington was out, then the game would have been even , cmon fellas.

Acie Law can't even crack the lineup rotation, hhis teammates were upset at him coming in cold off the bench trying to go end to end . LOL

You all know if felton goes to the rack he either scores or draws the fou, nobody could deal with him last night.

AS FOR THE BLOCK: that block won the game , he timed it perfectly. But at 6"10 did you expect him to draw a charge ?

Jeffries would have done the same thing at 6"10, acie law went very weak to the basketball and you all know it. LOL

Getting a win in the NBA is what it's all about though. But from what I saw there is no way the knicks win with Jackson and wallace playing. Don't ever insult my intelligence and say it was an even swap. LOL

You're just a hater that wants to 'dis' Gallo and MDA at all costs, no matter what. I bet you loved the Isiah era.

I did not like zeke at all , especially when he purchased Marbury for our future, I like frank williams at the time.

#2 Coach Danphoney didn't have me at hello, he knows his style puts fannies in the seats and goes against traditional NBA coaches philosphy and draws other teams into a running game (recreation basketball) Gallo is a shooter for sure and everytime he shoots knicks fans think it's going in :). Gallo will be slowed either by february with teams shutting down what he does best.

This won't last the whole season. He's aknick so I have to go with him as a player ,but what I have seen of Anthony Randolph playing in this system with Jennings this yr I would have been elated. We need guys who can play all 96 ft, Jennings and Randolph would have made me a happy camper. The bender pickup was nice, a vet who level headed good person with good range when left open.

When the game counts I want bender and gallup show me their stuff. GALLO WAS 3-11 before knocking down 2 open 3's.

In a playoff game this guy will not be left open, team will beg him to drive. Gerald wallace would be too much for him defensivly.

Let me tell you something mr. playa2:

1. Danphoney is no phoney. He is an AWESOME coach that took the Suns to dizzying new heights.
2. Gallo is so much more than a shooter, he's the complete package. He can drive to the hole, he can knock down the trey, he can dish it. He can run the floor. He's still getting comfortable and adjusted to being a leader in the NBA.
3. They're ALREADY closing in on him, guarding him tight, and you know what he's been doing? Taking it to the hole and winning us games, while remaining deadly from trey.

Danphoney :You never heard of the guy before STEVE NASH
Gallo : He has shown me he'sa heck of a shooter, but I also hear of this temper he's had since he was a kid, and we all have seen him show it getting down on himself or when he grabs a rebound. Just wait unil the games count in march whenteam really compete.
If you know pro ball the reg season defense doesn't compare to the end of the season and playoffs when people know what you do and you play the same team cinsistently. They take away what you do well.

If you get a chance to see the game again, watch Gallo on the final play. He was demanding the ball so that he could go to the line again. He knew he gacked, but still wanted another chance to get to the line. I got no problems with the young fellow.

he had stiff legs at the FT line.

Bip be honest, if he keeps gacking up this yr with struggling shooting or missed ft's or his temper getting out of control, you will say it a learning process. He's been playing pro ball since he was 16, he thrives under pressure he says. So when anyone makes excuses for him it's hard for me to be patient. Real rookies never played pro ball in a league against grown men before..

Except in Europe.

Nash was so good in Dallas they let him go for nada.

Danphoney's style wins in Europe it has yet to be proven a winner in the NBA in america, ask TEX WINTERS

Nash was a soccer player he plays basketball the same way run run run , non stop. Danphoney just so happen to let him play rec ball and he did his thing. Basically in the association when you have many guys in the league who hate to defend playing run and gun is advantage in reg season as long as you have rebounders. Come playoff time all bets are off unless nash is your coach on the floor.

you ask what has before Nash? I ask what Jackson has done without Kobe/Jordan? And let's be honest, Nash ain't in Kobe/Jordan land.

I'm more concerned with what might be happening with this year's pick - Jordan Hill. It's a little disappointing that he's not ready to contribute at the NBA level right away.

playa this nonsense of lovers and haters doesn't work with me. You can have that childish conversation with someone else on this site. I am 100% fair and defy you to find a moment when I was not. I call it the way I see it, and have no more need for Gallo then I do Stephon Marbury on my team. I want winners on the Knicks and am not beholden to any player. If Gallo sucks long-term then he sucks and you will hear it from Bip like you always do.

Now, back to an adult conversation. He choked at the line last night. He also made two big back to back 3's and a game winning block. Based on those 3 things how does anyone conclude that he is clutch or is not clutch. We seemed to see evidence of both. He has disappeared in some games and has hit some daggers as well. He's young in his career so it's difficult to make a determination if he will be clutch or not. If we are battling for playoffs and he is gacking at the end of the year what will this tell us? That for his career he is a loser? Or will it say that he has progress to make? Progress that we may or may not ever see. I actually say number 2 you may thing differently. Either way, right now pretty difficult to determine if last night is a pattern or not.

Larry-lover!

He expects a lot of himself and demonstrates it when he misses those clutch free-throws. That's a point of the game where it might serve him well to develop a cooler demeanor.

And what was that? Can you tell us what MDA did without the help of a internet search engine?

You can't be serious about that Nash comment. Nash played his role...which was play PG and look for his shooters (mainly Dirk). He didnt have to be the 1st option" like he was in Dallas.
