Did anyone else think Dice looked awkward and not completely healthy? Or did you all think it was rust?

Dice looked rusty as expected, but he moved very well, and I agree, we should let the young guys play or at least suit up, put spoon and harrington on the IR, If dice stays healthy, their playing time is over!!

Anyone who sits around and waits for the lottery to better themselves, either in real life or in sports, Is a Loser............... TKF

GoNy, while i do agree that spoon & harington should sit, i'm going to go ahead & stick my neck out & say maybe mangmt (hopefully mangmt) is trying to raise trade value in those 2 before the trade deadline. after they get rid of atleast one of them, they activate lampe or sweet. i doubt that's what there doing but it's an idea. oh, & it was definitly rust. relax, he'll be alright. for somebody who has'nt played in two plus yrs he looked fine. pay no attention to him not scoring, he moved well. personally, if i go a month w/out playing i already feel alittle akward. (not that happens often)

Yea I will go on record and say officiating and ward aggressivness cost us the game. Yea chaney did choose to play ward over eisely and Williams so I put that on him. But in all reality ward was the culprit.

Everyone on the planet could easily see that BILLIPS traveled !!!! That cost us the game !!! Yes H2O turned it over at the end, but we would not have been in that position if the refs would have made the call !!!
What does DICK CHANEY & DON CHANEY have in common ?? They both accidentally fell into a job they don't deserve & really suck at doing it !!!! Both need to be fired !!!

Well, I can see them trading OH, but Spoon? Nobody will want a fat overpaid guy with a long contract. This was a bad move. Unless they take back a malcontent, Spoon isn't going anywhere.

As for Dice, I see most of you think it was Rust. I am surprised that he is playing without a brace even! I have a bad knee, and while I did not do the rehab he did, I cannot play without a brace, both physically and mentally now. He was active, I just thought his actions looked awkward. There were a couple of times, his knees seemed very straight. Who knows as long as he is healthy, idont care.

In any case, all the health in the world, will not help Chaney with his rotations and last play calls!

Playa, you can't have it both ways! Chaney put Ward in. Ward played pretty well last night, except for the 2 fouls. He was agrressive as he ALWAYS is. He made shots too. I think he is better than Eisley still. Fwill could have gotten some run, instead of Anderson just so there was another ball handler on the floor. FWILL can drive it well right now.

Anderson has to draw a foul on that drive!!! That was the game.

KVH cant defend on that bad ankle.

Spree is gone, get over it.

Why must we demonize an individual when the TEAM lost.

Detroit and Knicks played a defensive battle, that is why the score was low.

At the end, you go to your go to guy,the guy whom makes 100 mil. Motion offense keeps you in the game or wins it, but if its not working, then you go to the go to guy.

Detroit and Indy are the class of the east. Rome was not build in a day. Nobody is running us out of our building these days, and we went 2-1 on a good road trip. Things are getting better.

Ugly game. Good teams win ugly. Detroit is a good team, and we are still growing into one.

The glass is getting half full.

good post .the team wins together or they loose together.these guys are in most of their games and are taking the better teams to the wire.sacramento ,indiana[1st game] ,detroit,these were the best teams last year.we're finally getting healthy and given time time this team will make a run.there are no stars and that can be a good thing.this means that everyone has an opportunity to shine at any given moment on any night.we dont have to rely on one guy and that makes us harder to defend.there are going to be games where some guys will shine and some games where they look terrible but the good thing is that you never know who is going to be the man.spree is at a place where he he can end his career and has a chance to maybe go deep in the playoffs.his fans should be happy for him.do you think he gives a hoot about the knicks anymore ? get real.what did he do against them when they played,not much.remember that it is better to trade a player a year early than a year late.and if you dont like the van horn trade [i like it] what does that say about present day spree if thats all thats they could get for him? kvh is a knick now ,so lets give him a lil time to get healthy and a lil time to fit in.judge him at tht end of the year.right now he has looked fine.he has also been inconsistent and should be put on the carpet for that,but the guy hustles, rebounds and is a team player. it was poor team shooting and some dumb ,although agressive fouls that lost the game last night.some bs calls also.corlss running along the baseline,no call.billups running between 2 defenders,nocall leads to foul on ward leads to game.this is our home court why is detroit getting crucial calls. this team is scrappy and will be there for the playoffs.lets go knicks

I was really surprised and impressed with Antonio's defense. He was really working hard, maybe it was on adrenaline but he was getting in everyone's face and altering shots.

We'll do fine if Shandon does not play
