Game 5.

I'm proud of my Knicks and their effort coming back. Melo was off and we still forced overtime.

If there is a group of a-holes that deserved to be swept, it was the Celtics, but it couldn't happen with the game on the line.

Gripe about the free-throws and all, we fought hard in a bad game for the whole team. Wish we had won, but we have another chance on Wednesday, and with J.R.

I'm starting to believe many of these posters are hypocrites, unless they had money on the game and lost.

I agree. JR was out and it was in Boston. I would not call this an impressive win for them.

LOL Melo shot us out of the game? I guess he should have passed. Felton and Shumpert missed PLENTY of shots.

Holfresh being considered not a strong enough homer? I thought I'd seen it all!

This loss sucks after coming back from 20 down but can we stop pointing fingers with hindsight that sounds very cheap ...

Go Knicks!

Melo did play horribly. I dont see what the problem is with saying so.

Knicks shot 31/90 and 7/30 from 3. Still could've won the game.

Melo was way off, of course. But this game was lost in the first half when we came out with zero passion and energy. No way should we have been down to that team by 20 regardless if JR was in the line up or not.

I've said this before, Woodson really needs to open up his playbook some. We either run pnr or give the ball to Melo/JR and get out of the way....

Please guys if not for MELO and Felton they would have blown us out. No team is going to go away from their star and the scoring leader. His shot was off but he got to the line, had a few rebounds and a couple of assists. Blame the coaching if anything......

C'mon Nix, we didn't close out today. Do you think the outcome is in doubt? I kinda expect you to accentuate the positives. A few made foul shots and we get a totally different outcome. Last I looked, we were dwn twenty, and came back to put the finish in doubt for the Celts. On Wednesday, we close them out.

I disagree...we came out with agression, but the Celtics obviously had more to start. The start of the game at home, down 0-3...was gonna be impossible to match the intensity, but they did for most of the game. I'm proud of the way the Knicks approached the game. The problem is they didn't get enough good shots and they didn't make shots. Melo pressed too much in this one with JR out.

+1, you have to accept the criticism the same as the accolades given.

The worlds worst lineup at the start of the 2nd quarter was a big problem and got us in too deep of a hole.
