No, we are not going to stop every team we play against, but if you watch this team you know that their effort and success on D is no illusion.

Our defense is so good we have been losing leads to mediocre teams in the fourth by giving up layups. This improved D is just an illusion. Guys are playing harder because their offense is rocking. Notice how active Chandler is now? His offense feeds his energy on the defensive end.

You are just being provocative and you don't seem to have any sense of persepective about the evolution of this team on defense or how the game is played in the NBA. You have obviously not watched the team very carefully this year,

Don't you know, didn't your moms ever say to you..."To find something negative in a person is easy, to find something positive, well, that's the hard part and also the joy of life".

Jesus. The Knicks are simply LOCKIN' TEAMS DOWN and MDA's defense is STILL not good enough? What will be good enough?? You don't deserve this winning streak. Only I do, a real fan.

a real fan who ragged on gallo endlessly before the season started

anyone that criticizes on any Knicks are "haters", except for when OBM rags on guys like Al Harrington & Nate.

When someone (you know who you are, the lot of you) goes out of their way to say that MDA sucks, that Gallo sucks, that Donnie sucks, that everything sucks, that's on the bad side of the line. When I pointed out that Gallo's back injury may prevent him from being an MVP (but not an all-star), that's a rational observation.

Bye hataz!!!

You know I was part of the UK Mafia and I'm just going to take things into my own hands and say you were a hater before this season started. There is NOTHING you can say to change the label that's been put on you now.

I never said I didn't like him - Blob is the man. It's fun to mess with him though

playing terrendous, disgusting, embarrasing, and insulting offensive teams like the bulls, cats, and nets probably helped that number...

isnt that the wiggly thing that hangs in the back of your throat?

That's the 'gooch' you're referring to, fish.
