15 points from the stripe and an 11 rebound edge.....where's the new defensive attitude? They're doing this with Steve Francis on the bench with foul trouble and only 5 points.......Hmmmm!!

I seriously don't understand why Tim Thomas is not getting the ball every time down the floor, or at least a LOT more often. The first play of the game made me scream in joy. They go right to Tim Thomas who muscles Grant Hill and rapes him in the post for an easy lay-up. After that, he doesn't get the ball again except for the transition bucket which he looked powerful and forceful in again.

Tim Thomas is also a great passer out of the post.. even when he's playing in like his normal, under-achieving self, he's always been a great passer out of the post. If they double team him, he'll hit the open man, if they don't, he can post up anyone that they'll have guarding him. It's not that complicated.. go with what's been working.

This is embarrassing. Not only are we back down 11, we haven't given Sweetney hardly any touches, and Ariza has only played two minutes.
I just want this organization to realize one thing:
Making the playoffs is NOT a priority, playing the young guys is!
Sweetney has been playing well down low. Shouldn't we be trying to feature him? Maybe I don't know something they do, maybe his ankle is really hurting him, even though he looks fine out there.
Penny's played 12 minutes, while Ariza only gets 2.

Nelson is looking like a superstar. Penny is also looking like this is his first time playing ball.

is there a reason why TT is not involved with tonight's game? He is hot, why isn't Marburry running plays for him??

down by 20, we are going to lose tonight. Herb needs to get it together. Your hottest player only took 3 shots in the game, that is absurd..

this game is done. and should give everybody that kind of got a little caught up in the 3 game winning streak a little wake up call. i see we're trying to go the seattle way. the difference is that they have 10X better jumpshooters. therefore they can take the jumpers. if we're cold, we're done. cato and howard locked down sweets. penny is a waste as usual. i can't believe he's getting so many minutes instead of ariza. unreal. and with the zone, we have ZERO offense to counter it. that's the reason why we're down 20.

Is craw playing tonight? Why is ariza getting so few minutes? Nazr coulda helped us on the boards. If we can't score why not punch Mo taylor in in the 3rd? What is Herb doing?

Why do the Knicks come out in the 2nd half with no energy, no ambition? They do it more than any other team.....Hmmm!!

Marb only had 3 assists, that will never win us games....He is taking too much time to get his own points instead of orchestrating the ofense to get other guys going...as usual, he always try to get the wrong guy the ball. TT has been hot, just by virtue of the fact that he has been shooting the ball very well, he should be taking a lot more shots than what he has so far....All of our ball handlers should be looking for him

Herb has done a poor job with the rotation, and most of all with calling plays.....

I had a feeling that the Knicks would have have trouble tonight since a couple of our players started talking about playoffs. They needed to concentrate in tonight's game, but as usual failed..

Why was I tricked into the 3 game win streak? I mean, we all know the Knicks problems. Well, even though Marbury was sick..there was no defense. I mean, NONE at all. Sweetney just started at the ball several times on rebounds and is like mmm donut.

That's just sad. Sweet and Penny did no rebounding several times just looking up at the hoop (no boxing out or jumping)

Again no defense, we played a little better when JYD was in but still not enough.

We really don't have anyone to stop Howard so I will give them that. I mean, he is a beast.

The Knicks must win their remaining home games and start winning a few on the road. I mean, every game is a must win as we already knew before this, but if they lose 1 home game, it's over...I know thats a lot of pressure but thats what they've put themselves in.

Also, why did we not see a thing of that Jackie Butler guy? I mean, come on we were down like 15 in the last 3 mins and he got no action!!?! Thats not a good sign...obviously not showing much in practice.
I thought the sloagan was All Ball, not All Lottery.

thats why i said lets see what we can do on the road now. This is the same olf team. NO DEFENSE, NO CENTER.

Time to get in the hunt for the #1 pick. I just wish they never won those 3 games
