Its pretty frustrating. The Knicks have the best closer in the game down by 2 you gotta do something. Get fouled anything. Isn't that where genius comes into play?

It would be funny if the tech our coach got was the one poin that caused us to lose that also caused him to get fired.

If D'Antoni still has a job, I would not play TD at all next game. That bull**** cost us the lead and possibly his job!

Coach just sucks what can I say

He is our best 3pt shooter. The problem was no one could get open. I am guesing the plan was to have melo doubled then pass to open man. I can't fault the coach for the Novak decision.

We didnt need a three

lets see if MSG post game has the balls to mention how the game was lost in the 3rd once TD came in. Hahn mentioned it on twitter. Its funny because Hahn was asking fans on twitter if they are watching the knicks on MSG. Then they were replying NO i will watch on ESPN because they don't sugarcoat everything LOL

Listening sure enough not one mention of Toney Douglas

This is why you can't go 8-13 when you have the second easiest schedule in the league for the first 1/3 of the season.

Lay off mda, should of played Lin. But at the end celts turned up the d and did what they do. Knicks need more people who can shoot. How is it possible to triple melo.

The C's aren't just gonna let you score with your #1 option. This team has no way to get easy baskets and the only reliable scorers are STAT and Melo. It's pretty easy for a defense to take away STAT and Melo and leave your perimeter guys open. Look who was open on those last plays. Shump and Fields. C's will live with them taking shots. That's what will happen to this team every time with no breakdown PG.

Never said we needed a 3, the open shot off the double is more times than not the corner 3 in this system. Remember the 3 that Fields missed? That is why novak was there i nthe corner.

You have Melo and Amare on your team and you draw up plays for Fields and Shumpert for 3's?

It was doomed from the start.

If it didn’t work in Phoenix with Nash and Stoutamire... it’s just not a winning formula. It’s an entertaining formula, but not a winning one. - Derek Harper talking about D'Antoni's System
