I don't get this logic about Amare coming of the bench..The Knicks are getting killed on the boards..Absolutly slaughtered...Bulls are covering Melo with Deng who is a three??..Why is it advantageous for Melo to play the 4?

well it gives melo and advantage offensively and he can get his points win or lose and dolan and all the melo fans can sit there and say.. "WE HAVE OUR STARRRRRRRRRR!!" AND place blame on other players like fields and douglas for the reason why we lose...

yea, we get killed on the boards.. bulls had 18 offensive boards.. melo had 2 boards.. but does that really matter to most? he had 29 points!!! Yes!!

I think we match up with the bulls, but they seem to pull out these tough games, and to keep it real, had rose or deng hit a Ft the other night, we lose both games..

we just don't have them.. we have some good allstars.. but we don't have absolute studs.. i think that has been the biggest misconception on these boards...

Way to marginalize a debate that has been on going all season.

Sorry Briggs, you made a thread about sending Amare to the bench way back...... you're a Melo lover.

Bonn, I've seen a couple of melo at power forward is a superstar post out of you......... you're a Melo lover now.

Holfresh, you've been traded to the anti-melo team. So no more good post about Melo out of you.

Sorry guys those be the rules, maybe we'll get more defined classifications out Tkf the next time the knicks lose and he decides to post. SMH

We weren't moving the ball enough at all. We stood around too much. Didn't play the way I'm accustomed to seeing us play since I've been the head coach. Obviously, it's something we need to fix, because we're running out of time."

It's not possible to win just with D. You still have to play smart, team oriented BB. Melo can't take every shot and score every point. You still have to play team BB. It's possible to play with ball and player movement even if you don't have a great PG. The Knicks have to get back to that style of play.

You are a true GENIUS!! Of course they did not have a good offensive game and of course thats what every coach says after such a game!! LMFAO

Maybe he got your email.
