Oh shut up, I'm tried of you going into your talking points.

The Bulls are a good Defensive team and they killed us on the boards. Ball movement isn't going to make up for the fact that JR smith is the only real scoring we have off the bench or make Fields shoot better than 4-13. Guys had open shots and missed alot of them.

When Stat comes back, he wont come off the bench

But with stat all the opposing PG has to do is beat our own PGs off the dribble. Jeffries seems lost too.

DUde they missed open shots and committed stupid turnovers. This games was so winnable if our 3 would have gone to the basket and someone could knock down a jumper. How many open skip passes was made with a miss or a miss after the swing pass. How many easy baskets Fields and Jeffries left on the board. Yes the pg play was horribble but there were so many open shots missed.

Add on the rebounds and you have a stupid loss. Melo as a point forward at the 4 may be the way to go.

I speak the truth and I always talk about facts. What do you bring to the table except insults? If I had not been saying this all along that would be one thing, but I have, so you can shove it!!!

Yeah we know you've been saying this all along, that's all you do like a talking head.

We give up 18 offensive rebounds and get 16 points off the bench and what you wanna do??? Go right in to the same dumb ass talking points.

Great, yeah Pick and roll really would have helped the Knicks not give up 20 plus second chance points.

The Knicks scored 10 points in the 2nd. Sure they didn't rebound hard enough, but ending up with only 86 pts wasn't a good thing either. Their D wasn't that amazing in truth. We had 16 TO's and the Bulls had 27 assists. Our Offense was so off balance that we didn't get any offensive boards. That happens when you take tons of bad shots. Meanwhile their scrubs played smart team ball and that shows in the 27 assists.

Melo not scoring alot? 29 points?

You're a joke.

Those scrubs can take it to any team,their team minus Rose has about a .600 winning percentage and their defense is one of, if not the best. They're a very good team playing at home.......I'm out, you can go back to your talking points.
