When the game is slowed down, he doesn't seem to know which sets this offense needs to run and even the few plays that are working like the Felt on PnR seemed to be ignored when the team needed to make its run in the 2nd half.

No intensity on defense is on the players as much as on the coach. We've seen this team come motivated for the second half, yet this time they rolled up and played dead.

Mike Woodson was not outcoached today any more than he outcoached Doc Rivers.

When your leading man shoots 30 percent from the field and dominates the attempts, that is not a recipe for winning against a quality team.

Coaches can only encourage players to adhere to their strategies. The execution is up to the player.

We will clean up the rough areas and split here and Indiana. Next week it will be 2-2.

Fasten your seat belts. We going seven.

Coaches can't shoot, but they do prepare strategies for their team to score.

Not taking responsibilities away from the players that shot badly, but his game plan was just as erratic insisting on stopping the ball for Melo and J.R. to take bad shot after bad shot.

Felt on kept us in the game in the first half and there was no sign of his PnR at the start and most of the second half. Sorry but that's on the guy calling the shots.

Woody impressed me with his in-game adjustments against the Celtics, yet there was none good in this Game 1.

The Knicks game was way off today and Woody was part of the problem. He did get out coached today by a team that came in extremely better prepared, played their game plan to perfection and dominated on the road. And the Pacers were supposedly a bad road team.

That team was focused. Our was out-everything-ed.

They did look like the worse team. Were completely dominated by the Pacers, who looked every bit of a complete team and championship contender. That's what's so troubling for me from this game. They completely dominated us.

It is not a pleasure to dialogue with you. Whatever irritates you, it is not worth the time.

Your personal insults are not worth responding to.

Beat Indiana.

Then don't dialogue with me. I was making a point about the Camby signing and you're going off about how salaries are irrelevant and karma (how we owe anything to Camby, and why that has anything to do with Knicks karma, I have no idea). And as usual you have to pontificate and have the last word.
And please don't tell me when I should or should not respond. If you don't like me calling you out, don't spout nonsense. Feel free to put me on Ignore.

Tyson Chandler... where for art thou?
