We have no answer to Andre Miller playing the point, Harrington or Fernandez doing the shooting, and Birdman and Corey Brewer continuing their defensive prowess.

This game will be lopsided at halftime.

Thats it! Thats why the Nuggs are built not only for the reg season, but for a strike-shortened season. Its not Gallo that worries me for tonights game, its Harrington coming off the bench for 15-20, Miller controlling tempo, Fernandez off the bench, Brewer in transition. They are deep.

also, Afflalo and Rudy Fernandez are out. Nuggets starting Andre Miller and Ty Lawson in the backcourt. Knicks should start Toney and Iman. otherwise they have no way to guard those guys.

time to shake something up here.

edit: also, nene was out for the nuggets last game but back tonight. tyson's gotta lock him down.

yes, i remember. still think it was stupid. saying bill walker can shoot the three is generous at this point. same for landry. are landry and bill really "3pt shooters"??!?!?!?

There are a lot of reasons why D'Antoni should have already been fired. I am on the fence in regards to his responsibility in the current situation but I think he should have been let go a long time ago.

Time to clean house and not just them coaches D'antoni,his brother Dan, Webber and Herb
Cant clean house with its STARs and I'm not willing to give up on any trades for Amare
or other star. Doesn't make sense and for Stoudemire we'll lose $$$$ and cant get equal
value due to his bad play & knees issue.

If they make Mike Woodson the interim coach I dont care for it but its easier move.
NBA has younger coaching and assistant staffs its way of the change and I think the
NBA style has passed USS Ship Mr D'Antoni and staff way way passed them by in a rearview
mirror.

I am also for keeping D'Antoni staff rest of season to the end. But you cant unfortunately fire OR trade players easy so the Lame and soft excuses for this pathetic group needs to stop.

SOFT SOFT SOFT right up to Coach D'Antoni. This is SOFTER team mentally now than the MARBURY teams
and that is hard to admit. Soft mental guys aint cut it here in NY. We as knick fans have no use
for patsies whom dont fire up themselves.

HE likely needs to re-insert Lame Toney Douglas into starter Lineup OR Trade Toney cause he's most affected he been WORSE coming of bench or really not better. I like Toney but he has regressed too
much at least Fields works through his issues and gives you something, boards or some D' once in
awhile.

Toney is consumed with his offense which NY needs but like Amare if he cant score or hit jumpers
rest of their game is in the toilets big time!

Shumpert was steady and less inconsistent coming off the bench and also he
is reckless making normal rooking mistakes we all have to bear with though talented.

All in all I do not believe Knicks is with it "Mentally" nor has Urgency from coaching to them players to win 'winable' games. Melo getting kicked out was selfish but I liked the emotion and fire he
showed in Disgust, much more than D'Antoni , lame Amare or rest of Knickerbockers shows when they
get butt behind whippings by lowly NBA teams. Bunch of them feel sorry on their faces look disgusts
me!

Melo says its MUST WIN game if others on roster aint with that NO Way Knicks can play 4 Qtrs to win tonight. Coaching for D'Antoni would help also !

My point was that Walsh brought in a lot of guys that he thought could help the team and D'Antoni had no use for them. Brewer falls in that category in my opinion.
