This game is ugly as ****.

All these open looks and the Knicks can't making any of them. Why isn't Gallinari in the game? The only thing we know about him is that he can shoot the ball and with all these open looks, you would think he'd have some success.

After watching Gallinari miss open 3 pointers in the previous games maybe D'Antoni says hey give Roberson a chance.

Lets be fair Phar.. he's taken 3 shots this season and one of them was a three. That's hardly a trend to sit a guy. Be fair.

Isn't he 0-3 from the 3 point line? To be fair I thought he would have no problem knocking either one down because he was so wide open. Isn't the 3 pointer his speciality. I just talking about capitalizing on your best assets when given the opportunity. I think that is something that D'Antoni is also looking at.

Dantonio's system and this Knick team does not inspire me. It's like a black cloud is hanging over the team.

Roberson is outscoring Lee and Crawford combined! And you guys wanted to get rid of Roberson?

That's what I'm talking about maybe D'Antoni wants to gauge Roberson's shooting as well so he is getting minutes. Roberson having a decent game so far.

Q bringing us back in it.

Lee has been terrible tonight (and this is coming from one of his biggest supporters).

No, his stat page on both ESPN and NBA.com both say he's 0-1 from 3point land.

So as far as you're concerned he should never get another opportunity since he missed his first one?

No, I am saying that he got more minutes than Roberson the last couple of games and now D'Antoni wants to give Roberson a look once over. That's all. You asked why he is not in the game. I think D'Antoni sees an opportunity to get a win tonight. I don't blame him for that.

James does not want to retire so that wasn't happening anyway.

Pat sucks!

is jerome james active tonight? if so, doesn't that pretty much negate any type of medical retirement type deal?

There are significantly worrisome signs that this team is still horribly managed.

No, there are no signs of bad management. The players are simply not putting the ball into the basket. These are Isiah's guys. Does D'Antoni have to teach them how to shoot also?

I would put Gallinari, Chandler and Roberson in now. Knick starters and Mardy can't pull them out of this mess with 3 minutes to go.

Interesting that Roberson is now in with the starters and Lee is on the bench for awhile.

Lee was heavily outmatched by Bogut, I think MikeD sending him a message there.

Could Crawford play any worse? I'd rather stick forks in my eyes than watch this game. Jesus.
