Galloway played really bad defense against Charlotte also. Dude maybe a bit tired chasing players over all those screens.

U might be right. He and KO have not played well the last two games

Thank God Fisher is no longer our coach, now let's get Calderon out of here:)

I think gallo's contribution last game was quite ok - he made threes and provided hustle plays both on the offensive and defensive end. Also it was imperative for somebody on the Cavs bench other than lebron to provide offense otherwise they lose. Mo was that guy, and he made some tough shots in critical situations so it was a factor that is much or less outside of the knicks control.

For me, it was more of the sequence in the fourth where Fish pulled of RoLo for Amundson. A really baffling decision that threw a wrench on the offense from then on.

u just dont throw a NEWBIE Afflalo into the guard rotation for 30 minutes and expect the guard-rotation to pickup on Afflalo style of play n win.
Calderon, Galloway, Grant, Sasha, and Lance has been learning off of each other since Puerto Rico, the guard-rotation may have looked suspect with our lead-guard Calderon playing lost all the time, but we won 4 games out of 8 games vs playoff teams.

Lou Amundson at best is a one on one defender n rebounder, putting Lou as Lopez backup 2 games in a row wasn't good decision making as a coach, especially in the 4th quarter of tight scoring games.
Lopez & Quinn has been playing their best defensive-ball in the 2nd half of each of our regular season games by preventing opponents slashing-guards from scoring with help defense Lance Thomas n Grant coming from behind the opponent.

Fisher experiment of giving NEWBIES Afflalo and Lou a lot of minutes of playingtime in the 2nd half of the games resulted in two losses

O'Quinn didn't seem to have his usual energy. Lou isn't a new comer by any means. Afflalo played really well. A few posters have speculated that the improved 2 guard play has helped Jose. I thought Lou had a ton of energy especially on d. I really like O'Quinn but Lou's play was really good.

Lou was good to me too, made some good defensive plays (block on thompson!) and was playing with very high energy. The only problem for me was fischer making that erratic swap with him and RoLo by the fourth quarter.

It really affected the offense during those moments. I think for now Lou is a very high energy player but can never replace RoLo for long amounts of time and especially in critical situations.

He still has some value though and hopefully the coaching staff can sort the pieces out.
