Thank you Rolo and Fisher......

You've been waiting all night to find something to complain about but it's still funny how you can try to blame Fisher for these guys playing horrible on both sides of the court in that 3rd quarter and Fish has nothing at all to do with that.

Fish motivates the team during half time speechs...
Fish decided to bring back the same slow starting lineup....
Fish did not pull Rolo when it was obvious that he couldn't guard Towns on those 3 pt shots....

D.Fisher must just have a horrible basketball mind then right?? Come on now. I'm sure he has his reasons for having the lineups he chooses out there and not one single person on a message board knows what those reasons are.

Fisher is just coaching like Phil did in LA. Whenever teams went on runs, Phil left his players in the handle it themselves. I always thought that was wrong, but it was a great way to let the team learn how to play through it. I just don't think that strategy should be in place for a team learning how to gel together.

D.Fisher is a very very smart man. He knows basketball like nobody on here could ever even think about knowing basketball but i think sometimes we forget that this team isn't a great team and they still have a ton of learning to do with playing with each other.

You are correct, but so do pretty much all coaches...It doesn't make them invulnerable to bad decision making.

But that's the point that people don't seem to realize is that every coach doesn't always make the right moves but people come down on Fisher like he's the only one.

We come down on Fisher because he's the knicks coach.....If you were the coach, we would come down on you......If Phil was the coach, he would get the same treatment.......Are you from NY? Most NY born fans understands this already.....Nobody is safe from criticism!

What does that tell us (?)

FINAL
NYK 107 MIN 102

EXACTLY!!! Jerian brings the one thing we need at guard. His time will come.

Calderon was +15 and ran the offense well.

Rolo was -12 and I am fine benching him except for situational stuff.

You bring in Rolo for situational plays or matchups....But I'm still not convinced that KP should be a full time starter. Even if numbers don't lie. I just know Rolo shouldn't be in the starting 5.

25pts 10rebs and dragged the Wolves back into the game.

He's very good. Saying that doesn't take anything away from KP
